Since this has been bumped:
The i7-6870HQ and the i5-6350HQ with the new integrated graphics look like real winners -- and like they could murder the already-dubious value proposition of low-end discrete graphics.

In addition to the graphics, the 128MB of eDRAM is a nice thing for other memory-intensive workloads.

I haven't yet seen any systems selling with these yet; probably at least a month out, but I'm hoping we'll see them in decent business machines and not just the "premium-like-an-ultrabook-but-bigger" systems and the MBP which was what we saw for the first generation ones of these in Haswell.
