Intel annonce le lancement des processeurs mobiles Alder Lake-HX la semaine prochaine

Mardi et mercredi de la semaine prochaine, Intel organisera son événement Intel Vision qui examinera ce que l'entreprise apportera dans un avenir proche. Although not specified in the program, VideoCardz have managed to secure a slide listing no less than seven new Alder Lake-HX mobile CPUs that Intel are expected to reveal during the event. The new chips will be fully loaded out with eight performance and eight efficient cores and with a total of 24 threads at the top-end, i.e. the same as Intel’s current desktop parts. En fait, according to VideoCardz, these CPUs are the same physical size as the desktop CPUs, just in a different packaging that reduces the Z-height.

Alder Lake-HX comes with a base power TDP of 55 W and is said to be a new enthusiast CPU range from Intel in the mobile space. En tant que tel, overclocking is said to be allowed, which can push the turbo TDP to at least 157 W and this applies to all the CPUs in the Alder Lake-HX family. The platform is also said to feature a full set of PCIe lanes, ce qui signifie 16 PCIe 5.0 voies, 20 PCIe 4.0 voies et 12 PCIe 3.0 voies. DDR5 memory with XMP 3.0 profiles is also supported, alongside something called Dynamic Memory Boost. Curieusement, Intel has even made several vPro SKU’s that support overclocking, albeit with some kind of limit compared to the non vPro SKUs. It’ll be interesting to see what kind of notebooks these CPUs will be going into and what kind of cooling systems will be required, but it’s pretty obvious we’re talking desktop replacement machines.
