Smaller is better in the world of microprocessors, both in terms of processor speed and energy consumption. Intel has just announced its latest generation of microprocessors, dubbed Skylake, which marks the second time the company is using the challenging 14nm technology. Skylake sets plenty of Intel speed and size records, all to make sure we have the computing power we need, whether it's to design the next mega-engineering project, or watch cat videos without interruption.
