Intel celebrates the 10th anniversary of the Extreme processor line with the launch of Ivy Bridge Extreme series-- the latest generation of high-end CPUs aimed at gamers, 3D artists and video enthusiasts.
“We are thrilled to debut our latest generation of "Extreme" desktop CPUs,” the company says. “With 12 processing threads and 4 memory channels on our latest 22nm manufacturing process, this processor delivers exceptional performance for desktop PC power users.”
The product line consists of 3 CPUs-- the 6-core i7-4960XCore and i7-4930K, and the 4-core Core i7-4820K. All feature slightly higher clock speeds than the earlier LGA 2011 Sandy Bridge-E processors (4GHz, up from 3.9GHz), quad-channel memory controller, 1866MHz DDR3 memory support and up to 40 PCIe 3.0 lanes.

The surface is both lightweight and flexible, meaning OEMs can integrate it into protective covers or provide larger desktop touch zones. It can also act as a super-slim keyboard or detect handwriting or sketches via modified pen, with touch latency of just 12 milliseconds.
