Basically intel doing a BIG.little on x86. It's more complex as Windows x86 is not yet adapted to this arrangement. Also, the starting chip is basically a premium-priced Atom CPU with 1 BIG that's not really optimized (0+4 arrangement).
Still, it's an interesting move by intel. Wonder if it's a bit too late at this point, especially with their positioning. Nobody would want to pay premium price for Atom performance, and by the time Windows x86 scheduler support this, the ARM side will probably be already far ahead.
