Intel demonstrated a number of yet-to-be-released products at its annual Intel Vision event. These products are the upcoming Meteor Lake processors for client PCs due in 2023, Sapphire Rapids CPU for datacenters and supercomputers, and Ponte Vecchio compute GPU for artificial intelligence (AI) and high-performance computing (HPC) applications. For the first time Intel publicly demonstrated its Sapphire Rapids with…
Hot on the heels of an image of AMD’s socket SP5 (LGA6096) that emerged a couple of days ago, a member of the Chiphell (opens in new tab) community (via HXL (opens in new tab)) published a picture of what he claims is AMD’s forthcoming EPYC 7004-series ‘Genoa’ processor. Since AMD’s SP5 processor packaging is huge to enable 12…
Intel’s upcoming Alder Lake-S line-up of desktop processors is expected to make a debut in the very near future. To host these processors, we are about to see a major socket change in the form of the LGA 1700 socket, which got pictured today. According to the Bilibili forums, and reported by VideoCardz, we have…
At Intel architecture day, Chipzilla has presented its works on the upcoming Alder Lake generation of processors. Carrying the first hybrid configuration of big and little cores, Alder Lake processors are the first x86 designs to hit the market with this hybrid setup. Today, thanks to the HKEPC website via momomo_us, we have found an…
Fritzchens Fritz, a hardware enthusiast that takes high-resolution die shots of various processors, has posted his work on PlayStation 5 System-on-Chip (SoC) die shots, exposing the processor’s internals and revealing the layout of billions of transistors. The AMD SoC, codenamed AMD Oberon, features AMD’s exclusive design IPs like Zen 2 and RDNA 2. At the…
Zhaoxin, a joint venture between China-based Shanghai SASAC (which controls an 80% stake) and Taiwan-based CPU developer Via Technologies (which owns the remaining 20% stake). Last year it unveiled plans to launch a standalone graphics processor and it appears that Zhaoxin managed to produce one. GlenFly Technology, a graphics subsidiary of Zhaoxin that is a formal…
YouTube channel Moore’s Law Is Dead has published what it claims to be one of the first images of Intel’s upcoming enthusiast-grade DG2-series graphics card based on the Xe-HPG architecture (possibly codenamed ‘Niagara Falls’). The board does look like a graphics card, but it doesn’t have any Intel logotypes (they might have been removed to protect…
Intel’s datacenter GPUs based on the Xe-HP architecture are due for release in the coming months, so it isn’t surprising to see the initial leaks emerge. On Wednesday, Igor’s Lab published images of Intel’s codenamed Arctic Sound compute cards based on the Xe-HP GPU and disclosed some of their preliminary specifications. (Image credit: Igor’s Lab)…
