Intel isn’t just coming to CES with fifth-generation Core processors for traditional PCs — it has big news for the tablet crowd, too. The company is now delivering its first 14-nanometer Atom system on a chip, previously nicknamed Cherry Trail. The new processor should be both faster and offer more battery life than the Bay Trail-based Atoms you see today, thanks in part to both the more efficient manufacturing process and a big leap forward in graphics. Cherry Trail is using the same basic video architecture as Intel’s other new CPUs (Bay Trail relied on 2012-era tech), so you’ll have a better chance of playing 3D games and high-resolution videos on your tablet without hiccups.
