Lake

After talking up Alder Lake for more than a year, Intel has released all of the CPUs in its 12th-generation range. This new generation brings the same slew of performance improvements worthy of our roundup of the best processors but also marks the first time Intel has used its 10nm manufacturing process on desktop and the first slot-in CPUs with a hybrid architecture. There’s a lot to talk about with Alder Lake. We rounded up everything you need to know about 12th-gen Alder Lake processors, including how much they…

Intel demonstrated a number of yet-to-be-released products at its annual Intel Vision event. These products are the upcoming Meteor Lake processors for client PCs due in 2023, Sapphire Rapids CPU for datacenters and supercomputers, and Ponte Vecchio compute GPU for artificial intelligence (AI) and high-performance computing (HPC) applications. For the first time Intel publicly demonstrated its Sapphire Rapids with HBM2E memory. While Intel's Meteor Lake, Sapphire Rapids, and Ponte Vecchio are processors designed for…

| Two-day or three-day attendees to the Lake Como Comic Arts Festival this coming weekend (have I mentioned I am heading out there as the influencer I am?) get, along with their entrance tickets, an exclusive 21-plates 2022 portfolio, free with 2-days and 3-days tickets, featuring artists attending or associated with the show. Other copies will also be available ay the show for 75 Euros. That's about $80 or £65. Given that individual prints from previous years sell fro m $20 to $50 each on eBay easily, that would seem a…

Intel has unveiled an all-new 55W tier in its 12th Gen 'Alder Lake' laptop CPU portfolio. The seven new CPU models, known as the HX series, are essentially desktop-class Alder Lake CPUs repackaged to fit into laptops. The 55W nominal TDP can rise as high as 157W with an adequate cooling system. These CPUs, announced today at Intel's Vision technology conference, will be aimed at a new class of high-end gaming and workstation laptops. With up to 16 heterogenous cores, PCIe 5.0, overclocking support, and high-speed…

The Antarctic ice is finding its secrets harder and harder to keep.Deep below the ice of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet, the largest ice sheet in the world, scientists have confirmed the existence of a huge lake of liquid water.  Researchers have named it Lake Snow Eagle, and believe that sediments within it could contain information about the evolution of the Antarctic ice sheet from its very earliest formation."This lake is likely to have a record of the entire history of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet, its initiation over…

If you are familiar with F. Scott Fitzgerald’s literary work you must know the image that the American author’s work conjures. Fitzgerald’s notable work The Great Gatsby is a close representation of the 20s Jazz Age romps through the French Riviera, Long Island’s Gold Coast, or Roaring ’20s Manhattan. Most of Fitzgerald’s work was inspired by his lived experiences and one of the muses of the author was the Lake Forest, Illinois. According to Town & Country, Kingdom Come Farm, the sprawling mansion built in 1906 by…

Intel may be making some major changes to the architecture of its upcoming Meteor Lake chips, industry sources say. This could potentially give Intel an edge over competitors such as Apple. According to a new report from DigiTimes, Intel may switch from using its own 7nm process node to TSMC’s 5nm. Intel Meteor Lake refers to Intel’s 14th generation of processors that are set to release in 2023, following Raptor Lake this year. The chips will also represent the first generation of Intel chips that will feature a…
