Lunar Lake-MX leak suggests Intel is serious about "outcompeting" Apple

TechSpot is celebrating its 25th anniversary. TechSpot means tech analysis and advice you can trust .

Something to look forward to: The Pat Gelsinger-powered Intel may not be back to running on all cylinders just yet, but it is cooking some rather interesting PC hardware in the labs. According to a new leak, Team Blue's Lunar Lake-MX CPUs could be just what Team Blue needs to compete against the rising wave of Arm-based processors for laptops and ultraportable devices in the coming years.

Intel Lunar Lake-MX SoC with On-Package LPDDR5X Memory Detailed

With the reality of high performance Arm processors from Apple and Qualcomm threatening Intel's market share in the client computing space, Intel is working on learner more PCB-efficient client SoCs that can take the fight to them, while holding onto the foundations of x86. The first such form-factor of processors are dubbed -MX. These are essentially -U segment processors with memory on package, to minimize PCB footprint. Intel has fully integrated the PCH into the processor chip with "Meteor Lake," with

(Image credit: Jeffrey Greenberg/Universal Images Group via Getty Images)

Laptops are expensive, so it makes sense that people will be looking for some sweet deals on Black Friday to keep costs down. After all, the best gaming laptops with the latest parts can easily be a few thousand dollars (though some of the best gaming laptops are under $1,500 ), and the best ultrabooks can easily be more than a grand.

There will certainly be laptops that have their prices slashed, but many

AMD's Threadripper Pro 7995WX Breaks World Records and 1000W Using Liquid Cooling

(Image credit: AMD)

AMD's range-topping 96-core Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX processor has proven to be quite a good overclocker by hitting 4.80 GHz on all cores with an oversized air cooler. With liquid cooling, the CPU can hit even higher clocks, up to 5.265 GHz using only 600W and smash even more performance records .

Using custom liquid cooling instead of high-performance air cooling was a mixed bag. On the
