6770HQ availability for laptops

[GTHER]

Hello,

I would like to know when the 6770HQ (and 6870HQ, 6970HQ) will be available on the market in laptops, because I do not find laptop configurations equipped with the processor yet.

The processor has been launched on Q1, 2016, I would recommend contacting an Intel authorized distributor for information about availability: https://www-ssl.intel.com/content/www/us/en/resellers/where-to-buy/overview.html https://www-ssl.intel.com/content/www/us/en/resellers/where-to-buy/overview.html

Thank you for your answer; I would like to find a laptop equipped like intel NUC6i7KYK, which seems like ideal config to me. I guess this will be there very soon...

I have searched on Internet for laptops with Intel® processor i7-6770HQ but they are still not in production, you will need to keep checking with your favorite vendor for availability.

Thank you, this is what I saw also. Iris pro 580 is shown to perform even better than NVIDIA GeForce 960M on some benchmarks I read (with only a 45W TDP total), so I think a laptop with 6770HQ and thunderbolt 3 (to plug supplementary external desktop GPU if needed) would be awesome, and a good demonstration of the interest of all those technologies!

Yes, that would be a great piece. Hope you can get it very soon.

Iris Pro 580 CPU's like 6770HQ were released by Intel in Jan 2016 and it is almost 6 months later. This chip makes 80% or more of discrete GPU laptops obsolete. There are zero laptops shipping with these CPU's.

Is Intel keeping Iris Pro 580 CPU's for their own NUC production only?

[idata]

I do not have notifications that Intel will keep this processor model for Intel® NUC only. You will need to keep searching with any major laptop manufacturer for availability.

Six months after release and nothing

No manufacturer has mentioned a release

I guess at this stage i will give up and either not upgrade for a few years or look for other options

Most of the manufacturers advertise laptops as i5 or i7 as they are all the same

When will the next upgrade to iris pro ne released?

I regret to inform you that I do not have official documentation about when an Intel product will be release.

As a general corporate policy, the technical support staff does not comment on unannounced Intel products, future technologies, or technology trends.Allan.

This would be great if a device like the VAIO Z canvas, which currently has 4770HQ, could be upgraded to Skylake with 6770HQ, or with Xeon E3 1565L, with its 35W TDP and iris pro P580, and also with thunderbolt 3; this would make an absolute killer 12 inches quad core tablet! (I hope VAIO is thinking about this).

Thank you, I have forwarded this feedback to the appropriate department.
