It's cool that they can do it. I'm sure it's needed to beat AMD's 128-core/256-thread Bergamo. The key question is how they'll compare on perf/$ and perf/W.Reply
I don't want to kick Intel when they are down, but for an "Innovation" keynote didn't that feel like pretty much every segment was a RESPONSE to some other company?
Most of it, of course, felt like "we too are kinda sorta doing nVidia stuff" [lagging by three years], but the server stuff felt like "we too are gonna compete with AMD, just you wait", the visor/hearing aid stuff felt like "we too are gonna compete with Apple, just you see"; even the glass and foundry stuff felt like "hey hey, we're still relevant, TSMC isn't the only game in town".
The neuromorphic and quantum computing stuff was the only part that didn't feel "me too" (and honestly also the stuff that felt most like "is this ever actually going to pan out?"; it's slightly disturbing that Intel can't talk about this except in terms of hitting a few checkboxes; they can't actually point to even preliminary use cases where these two schemes are achieving something dramatically different from what we can do today via traditional means).Reply
I think Meteor Lake is pretty innovative. It's just not news to anyone who's been following Intel and their announcements.
APX was also rather bold, if only half of what's needed to truly address the deficiencies of x86-64. Are you not going to credit them for it, just because they didn't first announce it at this event?Reply

"Sierra Forest will offer up to 288 cores on a single chip. using 2 dies"... Wow, that's new. I was expecting 144 cores only. Replymode_13h - Monday, October 2, 2023 - link
