Maybe Intel’s manufacturing business should start talking to its client business.
Hours after Intel released a technology roadmap describing how its next-generation process technologies would align with its upcoming processor roadmap, Intel’s new client PC chiefs published their own roadmap. The difference? Intel’s manufacturing roadmap left out the actual code names of the chips, while the second roadmap added them back in. Intel also demonstrated a desktop PC running its
With CPU design shifting to an emphasis on improved performance per watt, Intel has followed suit. On Thursday, Intel updated its CPU roadmap with an emphasis on maximizing power efficiency.
In a presentation by Dr. Ann Kelleher, executive vice president and general manager of technology development for Intel, the company stepped through its upcoming technology transitions, explaining them in terms of how much power each new processor will consume. Intel held an investor day Thursday aftern
Intel said Thursday that it expects to ship more than 4 million discrete Arc GPUs in 2022, launching Arc Alchemist chips for the notebook market this quarter, and desktop graphics cards beginning in the second quarter of this year.
Intel executives also promised something new for 2023: the upcoming “Battlemage” GPU, which a senior executive called a “new class of graphics” bridging discrete and integrated GPUs.

PC gamers who are loyal to specific brands of components might have to make some adjustments to their next build. According to a press release from parent company Micron, Crucial won’t be developing any more products in its Ballistix RAM line of memory DIMMs. That includes Ballistix, Ballistix MAX and Ballistix MAX RGB memory modules.
The announcement was spotted by PC Perspective. Though Crucial doesn’t have any immediate plans to produce consumer-grade computer RAM products,

We haven’t reviewed the Logitech G Pro mouse, but the features make it easy to recommend. First, it doesn’t have an exaggerated, gamer-like design. It’s a simple-looking black mouse with a unobtrusive RGB logo.
Despite the subtle aesthetics, the G Pro f
More and more PC gamers have been snapping up high refresh rate displays, some of which have HDR capabilities. If you’re one of those lucky folks, good news! Your PC gaming experience will soon get even better on Windows 11.
Specifically, Microsoft plans to ship a Windows HDR calibration app for PCs soon, allowing Windows 11 to “know” the capabilities of your display, and to allow it to be configured for better color accuracy, AutoHDR, and related features. The other two f
Reaching the 100th release version of a piece of software is a significant milestone, when most applications only get to ten or twenty in their lifetimes. But for the browsers that are increasingly becoming the backbone of consumers’ interactions on the web, it might also be a big problem. As Chrome and Firefox both approach version 100 of their releases (98 and 97 at the moment, respectively), the jump to triple digits might cause problems familiar to anyone who was around for New Year&

We know AMD’s mobile Ryzen processors can deliver top-tier performance. AMD’s goal for its new Ryzen 6000 Mobile processor was slightly different: optimize it for power efficiency, extending its reach into a mainstream laptop anyone could buy.
AMD formally launched its new 6nm Ryzen 6000 Mobile processors today, after first announcing the 10 new Ryzen 6000 mobile chips in January. AMD’s announcement follows the launch of Intel’s “Alder Lake” 12th-gen mobi
We’ll understand if you assumed AMD was toast when Intel unleashed its spectacularly fast 12th-gen “Alder Lake” laptop CPUs in January. AMD, however, ain’t just giving up. In fact, its new Ryzen 6000-series CPUs and Radeon RX 6800S GPU are direct proof that the battle for laptop supremacy will continue to be a knock-down, drag-out brawl between chip makers.
The Ryzen 6000-series laptop processors, announced at CES 2022, are based the company’s Zen 3+ core (an u
