In case anybody has forgotten, Alder Lake made its
formal debut eventually yr’s Intel Innovation occasion on October 27, 2021. And since we preserve listening to that Intel’s Arc desktop graphics playing cards will likely be out there within the US this summer time, that leaves Raptor Lake as the opposite main shopper expertise launch by the point this yr’s occasion rolls round.

We additionally know that Raptor Lake will likely be supplied with as much as 24 cores (8 P-cores and 16-E cores) and 32 threads and can help “enhanced overclocking options” of some sort.
Raptor Lake can even be drop-in suitable with current Alder Lake platforms. In truth, firms like ASRock, ASUS, and MSI have already begun
pushing out BIOS updates for a number of current 600-series motherboards in preparation for Raptor Lake.
