The Hot Take: This reminds me of the days with L3 Cache for CPU's. Just the next iteration.
Intel Nova Lake-S "bLLC" cache configurations have been detailed, revealing a maximum of 288 MB of cache for next-gen desktop CPUs. Intel Nova Lake-S Desktop CPUs Will Feature Up To 288 MB of bLLC Cache, 80 MB More Than 9950X3D2 Once again, more Nova Lake-S CPU details have been revealed by Jaykihn, this time focusing on the bLLC parts. While we know that the bLLC or Big Last Level Cache die variants will feature up to 144 MB in single and 288 MB in dual tile configurations, the insider has spilled the beans on the max caches of each bLLC […]Read full article at https://wccftech.com/intel-answer-to-amd-x3d-nova-lake-bllc-cpus-pack-38-percent-more-cache-vs-9950x3d2/

The Hot Take: New out there about the AMD 10k's makes sense why this is coming out now. I wouldn't put it paste intel to leak it to say "Hey folks we're coming back!" Soften the AMD 10k impact on their bottom line. I for one am excited about this news and it means healthy competition is hopefully coming back to the x86 environment at least.

The Hot Take: Mid-range is the target and your new standard.
We already knew the NVIDIA N1 was a thing; NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang told the world straight up that his company was working with Mediatek on SoCs for AI PCs, and he also confirmed that the N1 and the GB10 Superchip in the DGX Spark are one and the same. However, this is the first time we've really seen anything like an end-user device sporting

The Hot Take: It's going to be interesting if Intel can make a sudden comeback with actual functional management. I have a feeling this is going to be my next system.
Some high-end motherboards for Intel's upcoming Nova Lake processors have been tipped to include a dual-lever retention mechanism called "2L-ILM." We've seen something similar before with LGA 2011, but that a server platform. Boards with 2L-ILM will live alongside standard ILM (1L-ILM?) variants that are cheaper to produce.

The Hot Take: They did state prices were going up. Now is it inflation or greed?
Following earlier listings, AMD has now confirmed the US $899 price tag for its Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 flagship. The new flagship CPU with dual 3D V-Cache comes with a hefty premium compared to its single 3D V-Cache counterpart, the Ryzen 9 9950X3D.
Confirmed by AMD’s VP and GM of Ryzen CPU and Radeon graphics, David McAfee, the Ryzen 9 9950X3D2, which will be officially available on April 22nd, will be selling for $899, depending on the supply and demand. In case you missed it, the Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 is a 16-core/32-thread SKU that features dual 3D V-Cache, which means that each of the 8-core CCDs has its own cache, leaving the CPU with a total of 208MB of L2 and L3 cache. It works at 4.3GHz base and 5.6GHz Boost clocks and has a 200W TDP.
Although it should be best suited for gaming, AMD is also targeting content creators and developers, saying that it should handle complex workloads and datasets. Unfortunately, AMD has so far shared only select benchmarks, and we’ll have to wait for some official reviews to check out its gaming performance and improvements in latency due to the fact that each CCD has its own cache.
We’ll be keeping an eye on when official reviews go live, and it actually starts shipping from retailers/e-tailers.

The Hot Take: It appears intel is back on the offensive and actually innovating again. This is what competition is supposed to bring us.
Intel's next-gen Nova Lake-S CPUs will feature a 44-core "Dual Compute Tile" CPU config instead of a 42-core configuration. Intel Nova Lake-S 42-Core Desktop CPU Spec Upgraded To 44 Cores, Retains Dual Compute Tile Config With bLLC A few months back, we reported that Intel was working on a range of Nova Lake-S Desktop CPUs that will come in 52, 42, 28, and 24 core configurations, all featuring bLLC cache. It looks like one of these SKUs will be getting a spec upgrade. As per Jaykihn, the 42-core spec has now been upgraded to 44 cores, featuring 16 P-Cores (2x8) and […]Read full article at https://wccftech.com/intel-updates-nova-lake-s-desktop-44-core-dual-compute-tile-cpu/
