Intel’s 8-Core Mobile Tiger Lake-H, at 45 W, to Ship in Q1
Since the launch of Intel’s 11 th Gen Core mobile processors, known as Tiger Lake, back in September, the hardware was noted for its core count. At a time where its competition were leveraging 8 cores in the same space, Intel seemed limited to only four, and in that 15-28 W power window. At the time, Intel stated that the base Tiger Lake design was aimed to be scalable, and that double sized variants were in the works. Today Intel has confirmed that
Intel Launches Jasper Lake: Tremont Atom Cores For All
One of the more interesting elements in Intel’s 2020 set of disclosures was its 10nm Tremont Atom core. Initially used in the low power Lakefield product, this core design is super interesting due to its dual decoder design, which no other x86 core does. It has been over a year since the launch of Lakefield, and we’ve been hoping for a friendlier platform on which to test these new cores, along with some extra frequency to see the design stretch its legs.
Intel Previews 11th Gen Core Rocket Lake: Core i9-11900K and Z590, Coming Q1
Spending five generations on the same base microarchitecture is a long time. The excitement can be sustained through optimizing a process node, adding cores, and extracting every drop of frequency, but at some point the base design becomes the bottleneck and it is time to move on. Intel’s enthusiast desktop market has been waiting for an update for a couple of generations, and while the new 11 th Gen Core Rocket Lake doesn’t migrate off of the 14nm process node, we are at least getting a

Netgear Introduces RAXE500 - An AX11000-Class Wi-Fi 6E Tri-Band Router
Netgear has a bunch of new product announcements at CES 2021, and the most interesting of the lot is the RAXE500 - their first Wi-Fi 6E router with support for 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz bands. The key here is the availability of the wide-open 6 GHz band - while the move to 6 GHz doesn't deliver any extra bandwidth, the absence of interference (and additional free channels) in that band results in more stable throughput
