    News Intel prepping Arrow Lake Refresh with minor clock speed bump and new Copilot+ AI-compliant NPU lifted from Core Ultra 200V — reportedly launches i...

    All AI applications run on a "non-AI" computer. They may be slower.... but not a lot. There are tests on this "Expect slightly higher clock speeds thanks to better silicon binning and refinements on the Intel 20A process, which introduced RibbonFET and PowerVia in Arrow Lake’s initial release."...

    News Intel announces cancellation of 20A process node for Arrow Lake, goes with external nodes instead, likely TSMC [Updated]

    Intel is not moving Arrow lake to 18A. 18A wont ramp until late 2025. Intel chose TSMC over 20A. 20A and 18A capacity are the same tool set. Wait till you see what arrow lake refresh looks like in 2025. Hint its not 18A either LOL the problem is that 20A isnt s good as N3..... Its not as good...

    Oops sorry, ... I'm new to this site..... Oh wait Tom's Hardware is the one who publicly reported it. LOL. Sounds like that is NOT the info you wanted to see.

    So you haven't seen the info showing that Intel moved most SKUs to TSMC N3? Check the teardowns on samples or just ask Intel. It might be important to you. its also big part of Intels restructuring

    So simpler questions: Is this for the TSMC version or Intel version of the CPU process. certainly 20A with backside power and GAA must be different than TSMC N3 for power?

    1) 100% agree. she screwed up and wanted to give good news. live and learn (Pat has had some recent comments that will bite him when we see what is really happening) 2) I forgot the [BEGIN Sarcasm] note. Sorry you are 100% correct all around

    News Intel Confirms Meteor Lake Comes to Desktops Next Year

    Its not coming to desktop computers that people actually buy. It is coming to niche products that may sell 1000s of units. But we have 14th gen processors (raptor lake refresh, socket 1700) so that pretty much the same. I actually felt bad for Intel people. Everyone in the press got so excited...

    News Intel Confirms Meteor Lake Comes to Desktops Next Year

    intel did demos of meteor lake in 2022. It was in production in Dec 2022. Lets see what happens with meteor lake ramp and then it might become clear. working out the integration of the chiplets has been what caused the mtl delay. it is not easy. but lets see. If I can buy a ARL computer in...

    News Intel Clarifies Meteor Lake is Not for Desktop PCs: Not in Socketed Form

    Meteor lake is low volume, there is a part still ramping (RL) before it and Intel has promised a part after it end of 2024. It is also very expensive. I think future roadmaps and the details of the "launch" will make this clear. As a test: what fraction of current laptops are Raptor Lake?

    News Intel Clarifies Meteor Lake is Not for Desktop PCs: Not in Socketed Form

    She meant to say that we would want it in the desktop and that she wants it in the desktop. She misspoke and now they have to backtrack. Now They cancelled desktop for a second time. LOL Raptor Lake Refresh is the next gen for Desktop. I will be surprised if we see meteor lake in more than 25%...

    News Intel Confirms Meteor Lake Comes to Desktops Next Year

    you wont be able to buy Arrow lake processors in a PC/Laptop in 2024. They will be in "risk production" but computers will not be available until Q1 2025 at earliest. That is why MTL is needed for desktop and laptop in 2024.

    News Intel Confirms Meteor Lake Comes to Desktops Next Year

    Its not that confusing. We just dont know which of Intels announced products will be cancelled or delayed indefinitely. I am betting Arrow and lunar get delayed/killed/merged/excused. MTL refresh on Intel 4++ will be awesome! Intel had customer slides with RLR for 9 months and never admitted the...
