An agreement for the acquisition of the Israeli microchip company Tower Semiconductor for 5.4 billion dollars, was signed by Intel, with the aim of further enhancing its production capacity in the midst of growing demand. The acquisition price means that Intel will pay $ 53 per share of Tower, an amount significantly higher than the […]

AMD buys Xilinx – $ 50 billion record deal
Advanced Semiconductor Designer (AMD) said Monday it had completed its acquisition of Xilinx Inc in a record $ 50 billion chip industry deal, giving it an added edge in the core data center market. The deal comes after Nvidia Corp. decided to abandon its plans to buy SoftBank’s Arm Ltd, citing regulatory hurdles. AMD’s transaction […]
Conditionally consumer Intel CPUs with TDP up to 400 watts. New HEDT class processors will be released at the end of the year
It seems that at least some new Intel HEDT-class CPUs will have to wait a long time. While Intel is successfully fighting AMD with its new Alder Lake processors in the desktop segment and is preparing to do the same in the mobile segment, the company has long abandoned one small market segment. The 10th […]
Intel, where’s the progress? Core i7-1280P (Alder Lake) GPU demonstrates performance on par with Core i7-1195G7 GPUs
A mobile computer based on the Intel Core i7-1280P processor of the Alder Lake family lit up in the Geekbench database. This, recall, is the top model in its line, with 14 computing cores (6 high-performance and 8 energy efficient), with a frequency of up to 4.8 GHz, 24 MB of third-level cache and a […]
Overclocked to 5.0 GHz, the quad-core Core i3-12300 outperforms the 8-core Core i7-11700KF and 10-core Core i9-10900K in games
Another test shows how good inexpensive Alder Lake processors are when overclocked. This time, the quad-core Core i3-12300 took part in the tests, and it managed to outperform the 8-core Core i7-11700KF and the 10-core Core i9-10900K in gaming performance at Full HD resolution. It was only necessary to overclock this CPU to a frequency […]
Buy a processor, and then pay more to activate additional features. Intel is going to implement such a mechanism in their new CPUs
It seems that guesses have been confirmed, and Intel will offer the opportunity to activate additional features on processors after they are purchased. The assumption of such a possibility appeared in the fall, but now it has been confirmed. We are talking about the Intel Software Defined Silicon (SDSi) mechanism in Linux, which will appear […]
Intel wants to make GPUs more energy efficient and give users access to zettaflops computing
Intel has not yet managed to bring Arc graphics cards to the market, but is already gathering a new team to work on other graphics solutions. According to a job posting on the company’s website, the company is looking for a senior design engineer to develop low-power GPU architectures for next-generation portable devices. Of course, […]
96 Intel cores versus 128 AMD cores. Comparison of server CPUs Sapphire Rapids and Milan-X appeared
One of the first tests of Intel Sapphire Rapids server processors appeared on the Web. In this case, we are talking about the AIDA64 memory subsystem test, so we cannot directly say anything about the performance of the processor part from it. Testing took place on a 48-core CPU. This is an engineering sample with […]
Top 3D Intel Arc card for laptops has been spotted on Geekbench. Performance – at the level of GeForce GTX 1060
A laptop called the Intel Corporation Tiger Lake Client Platform has been spotted in the Geekbench database. Judging by the name, this is an engineering sample of a device on which Intel is testing new products, and it’s even clear what new products we are talking about. The device uses a new graphics accelerator manufactured […]
Intel will make cheap laptops much more powerful. Alder Lake-N processors will have up to eight cores
Intel Alder Lake processors continue to conquer the market, but so far this is limited to desktop CPUs. Today, new data about mobile solutions of this generation appeared on the Web. We are talking about the Alder Lake-N line. These are the youngest and most energy-efficient CPUs of the family, which will belong to the […]
