Intel Unleashes Core Ultra: 16 Cores, 5.1 GHz, and AI Muscle Redefine Mobile Power

Intel introduced the latest Core Ultra mobile processors at the “AI Everywhere” event, signaling a transformative phase in personal computing. Built on Intel's 4 Process technology, these processors use Foveros 3D Advanced Packaging, which represents a significant architectural shift with dedicated AI accelerators in the CPU, GPU and new integrated Neural Processing Unit (NPU).

Supporting over 100 independent software vendors (ISVs) and boasting over 300 AI-accelerated features, Intel aims to position AI PCs as a dominant force in the PC market by 2028, transforming the way users work, learn and create. Reshapes.

Key features of the Core Ultra processor include Performance-Core (P-Core) architecture, which offers up to 11% better multi-threaded performance for ultrathin PCs. The Intel Arc GPU, featuring up to eight Xe-cores, promises twice the graphics performance of its predecessor. Intel AI Boost NPU increases power efficiency by 2.5x for long-running AI workloads.

In addition to these features, the processors support 16 cores, 22 threads and the next-gen Intel Thread Director. With a maximum turbo frequency of 5.1 GHz, they provide a significant performance boost. Memory capacity reaches 64 GB LP5/x and an impressive 96 GB DDR5. Supporting Wi-Fi 6E and separate Intel Wi-Fi 7, the processors ensure seamless connectivity. Intel Bluetooth LE Audio enhances the audio experience, while Thunderbolt 4 connectivity offers speeds of up to 40 Gbps for lightning-fast data transfer. OpenVINO toolkits support further enhances AI functionality, making these processors ideal for AI-driven applications.

Intel Core Ultra mobile processors are now available globally, set to power 230 AI PCs from leading partners such as Acer, ASUS, Dell, HP, Lenovo and more. This marks a significant advance in personal computing, where efficiency, computation and AI converge to redefine the user experience.

Acer has already announced its Predator Triton Neo 16 laptop powered by the new Intel Core Ultra CPU. This machine is designed for both gamers and content creators.
