Next gen man, next gen, something faster is always comes out eventually, some Skylake's will be even fasterLast edited: Aug 12, 2015 -

Hopefully Skylake mobile will be a pleasant surprise, and be an improvement as well.
As pointed out earlier, you have 4.2ghz for 1 core active, but for 4 core tasks it will run at 40x, 4.0ghz.
The 5950HQ is running at 41x on all 4 cores, so 4.1ghz is a faster clock than your 4 core 40x at 4.0ghz.
In that perspective, your Haswell is hanging in there really wellLast edited: Aug 12, 2015 -

To make a more fair comparison, I set up 40x on all 4 cores, with stock 34x cache, and under-volted to -45mV, and got an unexpected performance bump up, with 809 cb and 158fps.
cinebench r15 40x cores -45mV 34x cache - 809 cb, 158.60 fps
xtu monitoring during Cinebench r15 run at 40x cores -45mV 34x cache, 76c peak temp
My example of the 5950HQ likes under-volting and is sensitive to overall power/heat enough to move the performance up in favor of less clock but more steady power delivery or lower heat generation.Last edited: Aug 12, 2015 -
Phase is so going to hate you. lol
For 41x try running limit reasons in TS, probably some throttling going on.hmscott likes this. -
the core speed dipped after some time, so it likely was the HQ power limit kicking in. Extended power doesn't last all that long. I also don't see a way for him to increase current limit, but since Cinebench is fairly consistent throughout the test, it's most likely TDP.
-
I did play around with reducing voltage, run with max fan, and reduce load from other services, but at 41x the 5950HQ isn't performing as well as at 40x. At 40x -55mV I actually got 813 cb.
I haven't played around with fixed voltage core, or other things yet, ThrottleStop will be later, I am installing apps/games and configuring Windows stuff. And, for that I need a stable configuration.
Folding at Home (fah) is running now at 100% CPU + 98% on 2 GPU's (71c, 69c), at 40x cores -50mV, 36x cache +.09mV, 82c CPU +-2C on all 4 cores. So I guess that is stable enough.
Phase can get one of those new Skylake mobile CPU's and come back and smoke the 5950HQ, I am looking forward to itLast edited: Sep 2, 2015 -
any idea how well the new mobile xeons would perform? maybe i'll get one of those vs the i7s?

Like an I7 at the same clock speed unless you need the features.

So likely at 4.2ghz, the Skylake will be even quicker to throttle, since it is 2w less TDP.
I wish Intel would remove the the iGPU and increase the TDP and dedicate it all for the CPU so we can start reaping the benefits of all the CPU improvements over the last 5 years.
After Intel put the iGPU on the carrier/die, the CPU performance improvements have been throttled and held back.
When are these Skylake mobile CPU's getting released??
Tomorrow?Last edited: Aug 18, 2015 -

Remember they removed the on die voltage regulation so heat should come down a little.

Lets not forget that 4790K TDP is 88W while 6700K TDP is 91W.
One would think power consumption is similar but they are not.
That should transfer to mobile chips as well. More power envelope to avoid throttling (hopefully)
To clarify:
4.2GHz is stock for 6700K:
137W vs 180W (4790K)
Its positive signs that 6700HQ should do well

I would expect a little more wiggle room for performance per watt yes.

4.2GHz in a Lenovo 15.6" package weighing <2.4kg, I don't think so. Probably a spin off from the 6700K spec and more likely turbo's to 3.5GHz four cores active. Well in a suitable chasis, Lenovo will probably have it throttling before then.

56Watts!
Looking at the MSI GS70 6QD maybe it's 3.3GHz 4 cores and 3.5GHz 1 core turbo unless some throttling going on. :/

We'll have to wait for this one to come out. I HOPE that TDP isn't a big factor at least, but we'll not know until people get the chips.
-
This should be interesting... But keep in mind that losing FIVR means that overclocking is going to take a huge hit. If Intel managed to make mobile Skylake that can actually turbo longer than a boost window and without burning down the house... I think I'll eat my hat.
-
After looking at the Geekbench3 ST performance I'm more inclined to go with 3.3GHz 4 cores and 3.5GHz 1 core. Maybe there will be some additional overclocking bins to help things.

I haven't had an HQ to play with but we can check with TS or HWiNFO as to whether power and time limits are shown as unlimited. If they are then IMHO it's the manufacturers setting the limits and preventing them being extended beyond their criteria. If it were Intel's doing then you should be able to ask for a refund or replacement due to the limits not working as advertised. Not sure how that would work with a soldered CPU though. :/

I am skeptical of Skylake being TDP free. I think only the supposedly unlocked variant might be able to forgoe the TDP limit.TomJGX likes this. -

My i7-4700MQ can also have the PL1 power limits changed to whatever and has run over 100W, biggest problem is cooling. My i7-4600M dual core can also have PL1 set to whatever and has been run over 90W. The reason I can set these "in stone" is because of modified EC firmware. Without the modification they would run just like all the other CPU's, 47W limit for the 4700MQ and 37W limit for the 4600m regardless of any BIOS values set above these limits. -
My 4940MX is definitely NOT binned......... -
For example out of the box, Ethrem's and my Clevo laptops have no such limit. And the legacy Alienwares didn't either, except I think the M17x R4 had a 68W CPU TDP limit (it wouldn't go higher, even for short bursts, but an unlocked BIOS fixed it I think). -
My MX is 47W base, 57W when able but the system BIOS can push it to 67W and XTU literally has no limit. There's a reason it costs more than a 4910mq... Its fully TDP unlocked. But don't mistake that for binning. I've seen those chips beat mine (higher clocks at the same voltage)... Intel doesn't bin and if they do, they bin the MX chips lower than the MQ chips because the default TDP is 57W. Don't get me started........
-
-
57W base makes it even worse though... Because my chip can't keep up on TDP with the 47W 48xxMQ..... Well in most scenarios... It takes 90W to match what some 47W chips can do... I don't believe for a second that Intel binned their 57W like they did their 47W... -

For example it's a bit hard for my 4800MQ to hit 3.9GHz and stay there; some games have caused me to shut off. Yours however could sit at 4.5GHz all day most likely, if you could mitigate the heat. You already have the dual PSUs for it XD -

I have a desktop... What do you need? Sorry, it's been a rough couple weeks so I already forgot...
If you're talking about TDP, my Devils Canyon can run 4GHz at 50W -
