Intel Teases Rocket Lake Core i9-11900K, Intends to Retake Gaming Crown With 19% IPC Increase
We hope it's the latter, as 32 EUs would hamper gaming performance significantly. On the other hand, doing 128 Xe EUs on 14nm would use up a considerable amount of die space, and most desktop users (at least in the DIY space) will simply use a dedicated GPU anyway. Notably, Intel's test notes say the margin of error for its performance claim is +/- 15%, so we'll have to wait for real-world testing. Intel's Xe graphics also bring in-built AV1 decode acceleration, which is helpful because the codec reduces bandwidth up to 20% for video streaming (such as 4K and 8K content). … [Read more...] about Intel Teases Rocket Lake Core i9-11900K, Intends to Retake Gaming Crown With 19% IPC Increase
Intel vs. AMD at CES 2021: The processor war wages on
Intel’s response this year is a move to a 10nm Alder Lake processor launching later this year with an enhanced SuperFin process that brings together faster transistors and improved capacitors, the company said. It was smart for the company to focus on the more exciting developments ahead, but it has certainly given AMD an opportunity to move in and scoop up more of the laptop market. … [Read more...] about Intel vs. AMD at CES 2021: The processor war wages on
Intel’s Alder Lake-S CPU Hits 4 GHz, Flaunting DDR5 Memory
The new benchmarks certainly restores some faith in Alder Lake-S. It seems that Intel has been playing with the heterogeneous chips to see how far they can go. Alder Lake-S will land in the second half of this year. So there is, admittedly, more than enough time for further improvements. … [Read more...] about Intel’s Alder Lake-S CPU Hits 4 GHz, Flaunting DDR5 Memory
