Where's Beast Lake? Intel Beast Lake: 10 performance cores and huge clocks
"The Panther Lake generation represents the culmination of three generations of work in a short time and is expected to continue Intel's iterative approach. This transition is marked by a shift from a hybrid...
"To enjoy the Core Ultra 200 series, users will need to upgrade to new motherboards featuring the 800-series chipsets and the LGA-1851 socket. Unlike the Core Ultra 200V Lunar Lake models for mobile devices, details about the desktop version have remained scarce, shrouding the impending launch...

“What this could mean for a potential Radeon RX 8800 XT is that even though rasterized or standard rendering performance is not up to the level of the flagship Radeon RX 7900 XTX - ray-tracing performance could blow it out of the water. And that would be impressive.
It would still need to...

"Why NVIDIA would make RTX 4070 using the significantly larger "AD103" silicon, is anyone's guess—the company probably has a stash of chips that are good enough to match the specs of the RTX 4070, so it would make sense to harvest the RTX 4070 out of them, which could sell for at least $500 in...
