After years of rumors, Intel’s “Meteor Lake” processors will finally be arriving in PCs on December 14th. Now dubbed “Core Ultra” as part of the company’s new naming scheme<\/a>, they’ll be the first chips built on the “Intel 4” (7nm) architecture, as well as the first to include a built-in Neural Processing Unit (NPU) to accelerate AI performance. In almost every way, the Core Ultra chips demonstrate where Intel is headed next: Building efficient-yet-powerful chips that can keep up with modern AI demands.<\/p>\n

At this point, Intel appears to be squarely focused on laptops with Core Ultra chips. The company is rumored to be refreshing its Raptor Lake CPUs for desktops<\/a> later this year. While it may be surprising to see a notebook chip taking the lead, the strategy makes a certain amount of sense. Meteor Lake’s efficiency push is at odds with what desktop users actually want: As much freaking power as possible. So for now, at least, the company is better off splitting its 14th-gen CPU families.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Core Ultra is practically a showcase of Intel’s latest innovations. It’s built on the company’s FOVEROS 3D packaging; it features entirely new P and E-cores, with a focus on being as power efficient as possible; graphics will be up to twice as fast when it comes to performance per watt; and in addition to sporting an NPU, it can also leverage its GPU and CPU for other AI tasks. Funny enough, it won’t support the company’s recently announced Thunderbolt 5 standard<\/a>, instead Core Ultra will feature Thunderbolt 4 and PCIe Gen5.<\/p>\n

We’re still waiting for final details on Intel’s final Core Ultra models, as well as the company’s plans for 14th-gen desktop chips. But for now, at least, we’ve got plenty of reasons to be excited about next year’s batch of laptops.<\/p>\n
