These are the specs of all the new Haswell processors that will soon reach end users inside laptops and ultrabooks:

  • Core i5-4310M: 2 cores, 4 threads, 2.7 GHz, 3 MB L3 cache, HD 4600 graphics
  • Core i5-4310U: 2 cores, 4 threads, 2 GHz, 3 MB L3 cache, HD 4400 graphics
  • Core i5-4340M: 2 cores, 4 threads, 2.9 GHz, 3 MB L3 cache, HD 4600 graphics
  • Core i5-4360U: 2 cores, 4 threads, 1.5 GHz, 3 MB L3 cache, HD 5000 graphics
  • Core i7-4610M: 2 cores, 4 threads, 3 GHz, 4 MB L3 cache, HD 4600 graphics
  • Core i7-4810MQ: 4 cores, 8 threads, 2.8 GHz, 6 MB L3 cache, HD 4600 graphics
  • Core i7-4860HQ: 4 cores, 8 threads, 2.4 GHz, 6 MB L3 cache, HD 5200 graphics

These new chips are clocked 100 MHz higher than the equivalent models currently on the market - Core i5-4300M, i5-4300U, i5-4330M, i5-4350U, i7-4600M, i7-4800MQ, i7-4850HQ, i7-4900MQ and i7-4930MX - so their performance is expected to be 3.5%-7% higher.
