--- Comment #4 from Anton <anton at azib.net> ---
Now the hardware has been released, but there is still no GUC firmware for Kaby
Lake in git or anywhere. I am typing this from a Kaby Lake Dell XPS 13 right
now.

Kernel installs report missing kbl_guc_ver9_14.bin.

But the main concern is that Kaby Lake really uses 2x CPU when doing
GPU-intensive things - e.g. rendering videos and other stuff in Google Chrome.
My old Dell XPS 13 with Ivy Bridge is about 2x faster when put side by side.

Can the missing GUC firmware be the reason for such slow down?

Ubuntu 16.10 with latest graphics stack from 01.org.
