Intel is once again down for another Refresh for its Raptor Lake series and as per the report, it's set to launch it next year. Intel Aims for DDR4 Abundance in the Market Through Releasing New Raptor Lake Refreshes Alongside Nova Lake CPUs Intel Raptor Lake has witnessed multiple refreshes in recent years. After the success of the 13th-gen Raptor Lake family, Intel followed up with the 14th-gen Raptor Lake Refresh. Even after the release of Intel's Arrow Lake, aka Core Ultra Series 2 processors, Intel re-released the Raptor Lake Refresh with a different naming convention (Core Series). According to […]

There is a question that keeps coming back in enthusiast circles every few years: Do computer chips actually get slower as they age? It sounds simple, but the answer is more interesting than a clean yes or no. Your old CPU or GPU usually doesn’t wake up one day and decide to become 10% slower just because it’s been inside your system for five years. In most normal cases, if an older PC feels slower, the culprit is more likely to be accumulated dust, dried/pumped-out TIM (thermal interface material), background apps, operating system bloat, security patches, newer/more demanding games, or […]

The Intel Bartlett Lake flagship CPU may have additional P cores, but they do not bring any noticeable improvements in gaming. PC Games Hardware Demonstrate Core 9 273PQE 12-P-Core CPU's Capabilities in Games Against 8+16 Core i9 13900K; CPUs Tie in Most Gaming Benchmarks Perhaps the reason for not releasing any 10 or 12-P-Core only CPU is the lackluster performance uplift the Intel Bartlett Lake P-core-only CPUs bring to the table when compared against Intel's 8-P-core CPUs from the consumer-segment Raptor Lake and Raptor Lake Refresh families. We were all hyped up to see someone booting up his system with […]

The newest Core Ultra Series 2 chip offers superior raw performance at lower power consumption vs Raptor Lake Refresh's flagship chip. Core Ultra 7 251X Beats Core i9 14900HX At 50W and 70W TDP, But Shows Regressions When Compared to Core Ultra 7 255HX The Arrow Lake-HX lineup was expanded a month ago with the introduction of the Core Ultra 7 251HX. The processor sits between the Core Ultra 5 245HX and the Core Ultra 7 255HX, offering an 18-core configuration as a result of a 6+12 core arrangement. With two fewer Performance cores than the Ultra 7 255HX, one […]

The flagship Bartlett Lake chip can be a bit faster than the flagship Raptor Lake Refresh CPU, but this isn't the case in ever game. Bartlett Lake 12-P-Core Chip Delivers 5-9% Higher Performance in Games Than 24-Core Intel Core i9 14900K Intel's Bartlett Lake is an interesting CPU lineup, despite not being meant for the consumer segment. We have previously seen some users making efforts in running the flagship Bartlett Lake chip on a regular LGA 1700 motherboard, as technically, the Bartlett Lake CPUs are compatible with the LGA 1700 socket. Since no official BIOS is available from Intel, mainstream […]

It's just another rebranded Arrow Lake-HX CPU with "Ultra" missing in its name, but this will confuse many. Intel Launches a Non-Ultra Arrow Lake-HX CPU With Specs Identical to Core Ultra 5 235HX in the Core 7 Arrow Lake Series Intel just silently released another Arrow Lake SKU, but it has got one of the most confusing names in the family. Unlike how Intel usually brings SKUs under different families, this one shares its naming convention with two different families. As a part of the Arrow Lake-HX family, Intel launched the Core 7 245HX, which sounds noticeably different than usual […]

It seems that running the newly launched edge CPU on a regular Z790 motherboard can work if you can tweak the BIOS just right. User Makes Running Intel P-Core-Only Bartlett Lake CPU on a Mainstream Z890 Motherboard Possible Through BIOS Modded by Claude The dream of getting Intel's only 12 P-Core Bartlett Lake CPU running on a consumer LGA 1700 motherboard is coming true. The Bartlett Lake Core 9 273PQE, which we saw sitting on a white ASUS LGA 1700 motherboard a few weeks ago, can also run on it, provided you are skilled enough to tweak the BIOS. Fortunately, […]

Intel's P-Core only flagship Bartlett Lake chip was benchmarked in PassMark for the first time, and despite fewer cores, it still delivers amazing scores. Intel Core 9 273PQE, Comes Out Just 12% Slower Than Core i7 14700K and 22% Behind Core i9 14900K in PassMark, Despite Having Just 12 Cores It would have been amazing if we could have seen the P-Core only CPUs for the consumer segment, but as of now, Intel seems to have no plans for releasing Bartlett Lake for the mainstream market. The Bartlett Lake was launched last week, offering up to 12 P-Core configuration rated […]
