Intel confirms Meteor Lake will come to desktops in 2024

Intel has confirmed that it's going to bring its Meteor Lake CPUs to computers in 2024. The affirmation ends frenzied speculation that Meteor Lake may remain exceptional to laptops because of the deliberate release of the Raptor Lake Refresh later this yr. Various leaks additionally cautioned that Intel has canceled its plans to launch Meteor Lake CPUs for the computing device, and will instead awareness on the Arrow Lake lineup. However, because it turns out, all of these leaks have been inaccurate.

The confirmation about Intel's Meteor Lake plans comes from the Executive Vice President and popular manager of the agency's Client Computing Group, Michelle Johnston Holthaus. In an interview with PC World at the sidelines of the Intel Innovation 2023 occasion, Holthaus said that "(Meteor Lake) laptop will come in 2024." Explaining the reason in the back of Intel's decision, she said that the enterprise wanted one processor own family for each laptops and computers, as that is what maximum people want.

The affirmation is good for game enthusiasts, computing device customers, and DIY PC builders who would possibly have felt a touch upset by means of the information that the first-technology Core Ultra processors will not be to be had for computers. The most latest source of the speculations turned into a file, stated to be a leaked legitimate slide that appeared to show plans for Meteor Lake pc chips, but did no longer encompass any point out of computer systems or workstations. However, it now looks as if that might were due to Intel pushing back the Meteor Lake computing device launch for next year.

Staying with Meteor Lake information, Intel is reportedly making ready as a minimum two configurations of Xe-LPG iGPU chiplets primarily based on the Alchemist series for the Meteor Lake lineup. The file comes from HardwareLuxx editor Andreas Schilling, who says one of the iGPU chiplets will use eight Xe cores, at the same time as the opposite will use 4. The strategy is expected to give Intel the ability to pick one-of-a-kind incorporated snap shots solutions for distinctive SKUs.

Intel is leaking with its own swag. We recognise there could be distinctive configurations of the compute, I/O and snap shots tiles with Meteor Lake. The GPU will use 8 or four Xe cores it seams. %.Twitter.Com/522Ih06J4H
