The buzz in the press about these new specs and promotions makes me believe AMD needs to push even harder this year. Outperforming Intel isn’t enough anymore.

Intel Skylake introduces a new capability that integrates with Windows 10. It enables Cortana to be activated even during sleep through wake-on-command phrases such as "Hey Cortana, wake up my computer." A recent article covered this development.
