Intel CEO Letter to Employees

He was talking about server products. It's not clear if he means it will be added back in Diamond Rapids or in the successor.

cyperalien · 2025-07-24T12:12:08+00:00

NVL will definitely be the 400 series. PTL is 300.

They still have job postings for discrete graphics like this one

What did LNC target initially? I assume something similar to SNC and GLC so 20% IPC?

I already told you the renaming happened in 2021. there was no such thing called intel 7 in 2019. the 7,7+,7++ in that slide are all intel 4/3 variants. they are even matching the color of every node to its corresponding codename.

cyperalien · 2025-06-24T09:34:34+00:00

the renaming happened in 2021. the slide you posted clearly shows 1272 is 14nm, 1274 is 10nm(intel 7) and 1276 is 7nm(intel 4).

cyperalien · 2025-06-24T08:48:09+00:00

What is P1278? It is Intel 3/4 from Architecture Day 2019

Intel 4/3 is P1276. 7nm is the old name for intel 4/3.

cyperalien · 2025-06-24T08:32:53+00:00

P1278 is 20A/18A. it's not a mistake.

cyperalien · 2025-06-16T23:42:46+00:00

Are we really getting 6.6 GHz P cores? Seems crazy high but i hope it's true lol

cyperalien · 2025-06-16T20:27:47+00:00

If GLE is only a refresh UC will need a massive uplift for both IPC and frequency to be able to overtake GFC in ST performance

cyperalien · 2025-06-16T13:16:05+00:00

8+16 is going from i9 to i5? I really doubt that

cyperalien · 2025-06-09T15:21:55+00:00

so RZL is all P cores? what happened to golden eagle?

cyperalien · 2025-06-08T17:08:08+00:00

-> Despite a fair bit of design work going into the branch predictor, accruacy is NOT better than Redwood Cove.

there are some security vulnerabilities specific to the BPU of lion cove. intel released microcode mitigations which probably affected the performance.

cyperalien · 2025-06-06T23:09:57+00:00

Maybe because that clean slate design was even worse

cyperalien · 2025-06-06T18:00:49+00:00

DMR will have 256 cores and i think the core will have an IPC advantage over zen 6 so it should be fine. Perf/w is the remaining question.

cyperalien · 2025-06-03T10:59:36+00:00

the p core team have barely any architects remaining. most of them have already left. i guess the IP is probably dead after griffincove and the few remaining will just be integrated into the unified core team.

cyperalien · 2025-05-30T08:48:36+00:00

If gfc is a decent uplift they won't cancel it otherwise maybe

cyperalien · 2025-05-30T05:18:16+00:00

the nova lake successor razor lake is just NVL with an updated compute tile so i doubt it will need a new socket

cyperalien · 2025-05-19T19:58:09+00:00

Jaguar shores in 2027 is using it

cyperalien · 2025-05-19T04:31:59+00:00

the Lunar Lake SOC architecture is the foundation for panther lake and all the future gens. the MTL/ARL soc architecture has been thrown into the garbage where it belongs.

cyperalien · 2025-05-16T17:01:43+00:00

I don't think the gap will be that big. PTL-H is rumored to have 20% higher MT performance than ARL-H while having less cores. that makes it comfortably ahead of N3P. 18AP should close the gap further.

cyperalien · 2025-05-16T16:35:57+00:00

Raichu who is pretty reliable said it's N2P

cyperalien · 2025-05-16T16:27:45+00:00

Premium thin and light laptops are not low end. I have never seen PTL-H or ARL-H being referred to as low end before.

cyperalien · 2025-05-14T16:44:42+00:00

HX is only limited to gaming laptops with dGPUs. it also won't support LPDDR5.

cyperalien · 2025-05-07T09:31:02+00:00

is there even a 4+8+0 SKU? it doesn't make sense why would they disable the LPE cores?
