Intel has been quietly developing the world’s first 16-core processor for laptop computers. The flagship Core i9-12900HX mobility CPU will be among the world’s fastest laptop chips, and its first benchmarks have just been added to the Geekbench database.
The upcoming Core i9-12900HX will have 16 cores in an 8 + 8 configuration, according to Geekbench. It will make its debut with Lenovo’s 82TD laptop, which is expected to be a powerhouse for gaming, rendering, and other demanding tasks.
AMD already has 16-core laptop processors, but they are based on desktop components rather than mobile chips.
The BGA format will be used to package the 12th Gen Adler Lake HX series processor, which is projected to be a complete desktop chip optimized for speed and efficiency on laptops.
In comparison to the Core i9-12900HK, it will have a 14 percent higher core count and a 20 percent higher thread count. According to Geekbench test findings, it will be at least 10% quicker than the Core i9-12900H.
This processor will have a base clock of 2.5 GHz and a boost clock of 4.89 GHz. According to certain reports, when it is officially released, it will have a boost clock of 5.0GHz.
It will have a TDP of 55W and a GPU with up to 32 Xe-LP cores, which is significantly less than the desktop version.
It will be combined with Nvidia’s RTX 3080 Ti, which is presently the most efficient mobile graphics card on the market, on Lenovo’s new laptop.
There is presently no word on a debut date, but we will keep you updated as soon as further information becomes available.
