Intel’s upcoming Arrow Lake-S desktop CPUs are said to be particularly efficient with power limits of 125W for the PL1, 177W for the PL2 and 333W for the short-term PL4 as the absolute upper limit for unlocked SKUs. This is evident from a leaked diagram that shows a special Arrow Lake-S desktop CPU with 8 P-cores based on Lion Cove and 16 E [...]
ASUS has begun rolling out the brand new AMD AGESA 1.0.8.0 BIOS for AM5 motherboards, which includes support for the upcoming Ryzen “Phoenix” APUs. Potential AMD Phoenix desktop launch as ASUS releases AGESA 1.0.8.0 BIOS with Ryzen 7000 “Phoenix” APU support Months went by without any updates on the desktop APU side, but it [...]
Support for Intel’s next generation Arrow Lake NPU has already been integrated into Linux. This is an important milestone for AI integration in CPUs, as it also allows Linux users to take advantage of the AI capabilities of the new CPUs without additional hardware. Arrow Lake’s NPU is a dedicated AI engine optimized for tasks such as [...]
Intel has clarified that Meteor Lake P-Cores and E-Cores are architecturally very similar to Raptor Lake. The Redwood Cove P-Cores and Crestmont E-Cores are very similar to the Raptor Cove P-Cores and Gracemont E-Cores. The biggest change is the move to the Intel 4 process node. Intel 4 is a 4nm process that offers higher efficiency and [...]
AMD has published new details about the next Ryzen 8000 and 9000 processor generations. The Ryzen 8000 processors will be based on the new Zen 5 architecture and will be launched in the first half of 2024. They will feature up to 32 cores and 15% IPC increase over the Ryzen 7000 processors. The Ryzen 9000 processors will then be launched in the [...]
What hasn't been the noise in the leaf and video forest in recent weeks. There was even talk of a VRM disaster or a TIM gate (heat paste instead of lot), but if you look at everything carefully and carefully, the G... Thermal p aste instead of solder One of the reasons for the whole cooling problem is Intel's use of inappropriate (but arguably [...]
The latest version of CPU-Z now supports the AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7000WX CPUs that will be part of the upcoming Storm Peak platform. This offers an early look at the new CPU generation that is expected to dominate the workstation segment. CPU-Z and similar applications are always a good way to learn about CPU series before they are released [...]
NVIDIA and TSMC are closing a deal for 3nm AI GPUs, and so the green giant will have its next generation of AI GPUs manufactured on TSMC’s 3nm process. The B100 “Blackwell” GPUs are expected to hit the market in the second half of 2024 and offer a significant performance boost over the current generation. The Blackwell GB100 GPUs [...]
Intel plans to release the 14th generation of its Core processors this year. The Meteor Lake processors are planned for laptops, and the Raptor Lake Refresh CPUs for desktops. The exact reason for the decision to release the Meteor Lake processors only for notebooks this year is unknown. However, Intel has confirmed that these processors will also [...]
The specifications and first benchmarks of the Intel 5th Generation Emerald Rapids, more precisely the Xeon Platinum 8580 CPU, have been published by YuuKi_AnS and picked up by the colleagues from WCCFTECH. It is already known from an earlier leak by YuuKi_AnS that the Intel 5th generation Xeon Platinum 8580 CPU will feature an impressive 60 cores [...]
Of course, it is not a real leak today, because I had already published almost all details in the article linked below. However, the documents have been revised and supplemented several times in the meantime, so that I can offer you drawings with higher quality today and add the CPU and the upcoming 800 chipset, which are not yet online in this [...]
Intel unveiled its next generation of client CPUs at Innovation 2023, including Arrow Lake, Lunar Lake and Panther Lake. Arrow Lake is the first generation and will be launched next year. It is based on the 20A process node and uses a new core architecture. Lunar Lake and Panther Lake will follow in the following years. Intel’s next desktop [...]
Intel’s breakthrough enables continued scaling and promotes Moore’s Law: glass substrates for advanced packaging technologies are coming this decade.
