A leak reveals that Intel's upcoming Panther Lake lineup will include up to 12 SKUs, featuring a mix of Core Ultra X, regular Core Ultra, and U-series processors, with varying GPU core configurations and model naming conventions, though details are not yet official.
NVIDIA is reportedly developing its next-gen GPU lineup, codenamed Blackwell, which is expected to power the GeForce RTX 50 gaming lineup. The leak suggests that there will be at least six SKUs for the gaming lineup, including the flagship GB202, followed by GB203, GB205, GB206, and GB207. The existence of the GB205 SKU indicates further segmentation, replacing the AD104 SKU. However, the release of the GeForce RTX 50 lineup is not expected until 2025, giving NVIDIA time to refine its gaming lineup.
Intel has unveiled its latest vPro platform for its 13th Gen Core series, offering updated hardware-level security features to protect against ransomware and malware attacks. The new platform promises up to 93% efficacy in detecting ransomware attacks in real-time and a smooth transition to Windows 11. The flagship Raptor Lake architecture offers a 70% reduction in attack surface compared to the previous Comet Lake platform. The vPro support is available in selected SKUs of the Core i9, Core i7, and Core i5 series for desktop and mobile platforms.
