Intel is planning to debut the new Arrow Lake-S architecture next year. Expected to bring considerable improvements over Raptor Lake, Arrow Lake will feature new P- and E-cores known as Lion Cove and Skymont, respectively. Notably, the former is expected to have a significantly bigger L2 cache, hopefully bringing with …

A Chinese tech reviewer was able to get an early sample of Intel's upcoming Core i7-14700K. In a curious effort to prevent the video from being taken down, the uploader referred to the processor as a ‘Core i7-13700KS'…. which obviously doesn't exist. Unfortunately, that wasn't enough to prevent the video …

Intel Lunar Lake isn't expected to arrive until after Meteor Lake and Arrow Lake. However, dataminers have been finding new details about Intel's upcoming low-power CPU architecture.  As noted by InstLatX64, Intel's ‘perfmon' software now has more CPUIDs. In the past, the data found on perfmon has revealed the names …

Intel has recently disclosed a recently discovered security vulnerability dubbed “Downfall” affecting various Intel CPU generations. This susceptibility has been traced back to a memory optimisation feature that uses the “Gather” instruction. As the name implies, this instruction gathers data from dispersed locations, inadvertently laying bare the internal hardware registers …

After confirmation of key specs for the upcoming Intel Core i9-14900K and i7-14700K, it's now time to learn more about the Core i5-14600K. The latest leak gives us a look at the new-gen unlocked Core i5, with 14 CPU cores, alongside a 5.3GHz clock speed.  As per the picture shared …

The first benchmark entries of Intel's new desktop lineup have begun to show up, offering enthusiasts an early peek at the upcoming Raptor Lake Refresh. Unfortunately, the user who had access to these chips only tried them on BAPCo, which doesn't give us much performance comparison data, but it does …

For instance, a prominent leaker has recently claimed that the Core Ultra chips will be able to boost beyond 5GHz. Intel's eagerly awaited …

We recently covered Intel's claim that it would deliver five fabrication nodes in four years which would allow the chip giant to regain its process technology leadership, presumably from TSMC, by 2025. These are bold claims that were immediately challenged by news that Intel would ditch its own 20A process in Arrow Lake and would instead use the TSMC N3 process...

Nearly a year ago, Intel made headlines with the introduction of the Arc A580 GPU, a promising mid-series desktop gaming card. However, it seems that the company has somewhat neglected it. In the meantime, the Alchemist lineup has been divided into the A7 and A3 series, while the A5 series …
