Since the launch of the first AMD Ryzen at Intel, they have had to put their batteries in the middle of a constant technological battle. Although they are leaders in market share, they cannot be distracted for a moment. Months after the launch of their Core 13, they announced that the fourteenth generation based on Meteor Lake started out on Windows, Linux, and Chrome.
Intel has long established the accelerator and is committed to releasing a new architecture every year. In other words, one more generation of its Intel Core. If in the present 2022 the appearance of the Intel Core 13 under the Raptor Lake architecture is expected, by 2023 we will see the launch of Meteor Lake under the potential Intel Core 14 brand. its functionality into several chips. These are commonly known as chiplets, but Intel calls them tiles.
This will be a radical change for the company co-founded in the late 1960s by Gordon Moore. And it is that from its 4004 to the Intel Core 12, all its processors have been monolithic. Although we have seen designs made up of multiple chips. What we haven’t seen so far are designs where the same CPU has been split into multiple pieces instead of just one. Which isn’t new to the world of tower PC processors, as AMD has been doing this since the launch of its Zen 2-based Ryzen 3000.
Meteor Lake is available on Windows, Chrome and Linux
Well, the latest Intel Core 14 news came to us from the company’s current boss, Pat Gelsinger, who in the first quarter earnings report for Intel shareholders and investors dropped the words following:
Intel 4 Meteor Lake successfully booted Windows, Chrome, and Linux. How quickly the team was able to reach this milestone is a significant sign of the health of Meteor Lake and our Intel 4 technology pipeline.
Meteor Lake, is made up of different chips made with different sizes of transistor. Th is is done to reduce costs, as much smaller chips are easier to manufacture and in higher volume. From what we know of the Intel Core 14, only one of its chips will be manufactured using the Intel 4 process.
Anyway, the fact that Meteor Lake I have already booted Windows, Chrome and Linuxmeans that your design is completeIs. So it shouldn’t be long before Intel releases engineering samples to motherboard manufacturers. However, for now we don’t know the CPU socket and other details. And it is that a few months from the launch of the thirteenth generation of Intel Core, Intel is in no hurry. Since before, you need to promote and deploy the family before Meteor Lake. So don’t expect it before the second half of 2023.
