Comparing IPC on Skylake: Memory Latency and CPU Benchmarks
The following explanation of IPC has been previously used in our Broadwell review.
Being able to do more with less, in the processor space, allows both the task to be completed quicker and often for less power. While the concept of having devices with multiple cores has allowed many programs to run at once, purely parallel compute such as graphics and most things to run faster, we are all still limited by the fact that a lot of software is still relying on one line of code after another.
