Intel Could Split 10th-Gen Comet Lake CPUs Into Two Different Sockets
In what seems to be an unprecedented move, even for Intel, Comet Lake might end up taking residence on not one, but two new sockets: Chip detective @momomo_us recently discovered a string in the latest version of CPU-Z that references the LGA1159 socket, which may complement the LGA1200 socket that we already know is coming for Comet Lake. One of the very first leaked […]
Intel DG1 GPU is Tiger Lake in Discrete Form Factor, Features 96 EUs and 768 Shader Units
Information already rumored has just been confirmed by an EEC entry filed by Intel (KOMACHI via Videocardz): the DG1 graphics card will have 96EUs. If the DG1 follows the design pattern of Tiger Lake (and there is every indication it will) then each EU will have 8 shading units for a total of 768 shader units per DG1. This […]
Intel discrete GPU struggles: won’t compete against NVIDIA or AMD
Raja Koduri could be the next one on Intel’s chopping block according to new rumors on DG1 Intel has been going through all sorts of issues over the last couple of years, with its troubled modem division selling to Apple for $1 billion, the constant world of hurt AMD is hitting them with in the […]
Intel NUCs Hit With Five New Security Flaws
Intel issued yet another security advisory this week, this time saying that its NUC mini PCs are vulnerable to escalation of privilege attacks. The company also released firmware patches for the mini PCs in order to mitigate the potential attacks. Researchers have found multiple vulnerabilities in NUC PCs this year. NUC owners are strongly advised to download […]
Intel’s Manufacturing Roadmap from 2019 to 2029: Back Porting, 7nm, 5nm, 3nm, 2nm, and 1.4 nm
After some emailing back and forth, we can confirm that the slide that Intel’s partner ASML presented at the IEDM conference is actually an altered version of what Intel presented for the September 2019 source. ASML added animations to the slide such that the bottom row of dates correspond to specific nodes, however at the […]
The Intel-AMD Showdown
It’s beginning to look like a really interesting market. After years of essentially one player taking all the spoils, we now have a significant second that has the technology to make a difference. The incumbent is of course Intel INTC, which just apologized to customers for continued supply constraints, despite double-digit growth in supply from […]
Intel Comet Lake-S 10-Core CPU Benchmarks Surface
Fresh benchmarks for Intel’s 10th-Generation Comet Lake-S (CML-S) processors have started to appeared in the Geekbench 4 database. The results reveal the chips’ core counts, L2 and L3 cache, as well as the preliminary base and boost clocks. But as always, it’s wise to take these with a some grains of salt, since they are submissions of unreleased hardware. […]
Intel unveils its first chips built for AI in the cloud
Intel is no stranger to AI-oriented chips, but now it’s turning its attention to those chips that might be thousands of miles away. The tech firm has introduced two new Nervana Neural Network Processors, the NNP-T1000 (below) and NNP-I1000 (above), that are Intel’s first ASICs designed explicitly for AI in the cloud. The NNT-T chip is meant for […]
AMD Ryzen 9 APUs could present a new challenge for Intel
AMD has been doing everything right and is looking to parlay its recent victories into sustained success for the long haul. According to hardware leaker @Komachi, the chipmaker could do just that through the use of integrated graphics. As TechRadar highlights, a list of processors recently published by the hardware leaker highlights four Ryzen 9 parts […]
