Intel tick tock4/11/2023 In 2022, Intel is rumored to follow up Alder Lake with Raptor Lake. Intel is expected to release Alder Lake-P processors to replace Tiger Lake processors on mobile, though we don’t have a specific timeframe on when that’s happening right now. Based on what we know, Intel can design an Alder Lake processor that requires as little as 5W of power. Early benchmarks show it beating AMD’s flagship Ryzen 9 5950X, and a leaked slide from Intel claimed up to a 20% increase in single-core performance.Īnother advantage of this architecture is how it scales. The flagship Intel Core i9-12900K is rumored to feature eight Golden Cove and eight Gracemont cores, offering a total of 16 cores and 24 threads.Īlthough Intel isn’t moving to 7nm with Alder Lake, the changes in core design should bring a significant performance improvement. The cores are based on an Intel Atom design, which shows up in low-power, high-efficiency devices. The little Gracemont cores don’t support hyperthreading, but that’s not really their purpose. Like previous core designs, Golden Cove cores support hyperthreading, giving you access to double the number of threads based on how many cores the processor has. The big Golden Cove cores handle the bulk of the work, and they’re similar to what you’d find in a standard Intel processor. By delegating work to an appropriate core, the high-performance cores have more headroom, and Intel is able to pack more cores into the processor to improve multi-core performance. The processors will use a hybrid design - dubbed “big.LITTLE” by chip designer ARM - that utilizes high-performance cores and high-efficiency cores on the same processor. Instead, the change in naming helps Intel reflect its improvements in transistor density and performance per watt compared to other chipmakers like TSMC and Samsung.Īlder Lake processors will be the first to feature Intel 7, and they’re set to launch in late 2021. Intel’s 24-core laptop CPU might outclass desktop i9 processorsĪlthough Intel 7 implies a 7nm process, Intel is sticking with 10nm through 2021. Fitbit Versa 3Īt long last, Intel brings XeSS upscaling to integrated graphics at CES 2023 Following Kaby Lake, the company is slated to begin developing its 10nm process for even faster and more efficient chips. It’s likely that Intel is having a hard time revamping its chip architecture as quickly as it used to over the past decade. Last year, it released a new microarchitecture - its 6th generation Core chips -based on the same process and will have a new product code-named Kaby Lake this year that offers performance improvements over its predecessor. Intel explained that it began using a 14nm process technology to manufacture its 5th generation Core processors back in 2014. We expect to lengthen the amount of time we will utilize our 14nm and our nextgenerationġ0nm process technologies, further optimizing our products and process technologies while meeting the yearly market cadence for product introductions. The company said in its form 10-K filing: Typically, Intel would introduce a new manufacturing process for significant increases in performance and power (a ‘tick’) in one product cycle and then launch a new chip design based on this technology in the next cycle (a ‘tock’). Intel’s latest annual report ( PDF) shows that the company is killing off its decade-old strategy for developing new chips, reports The Motley Fool.
