Intel's New PC Chips Solve Its Biggest Problem
Chip-giant (NASDAQ: INTC) has managed to keep pace with rival AMD on raw performance in the PC central processing unit (CPU) market over the past few years, but that feat came at a cost. Intel's previous three generations of desktop PC processors -- Alder Lake, Raptor Lake, and Raptor Lake Refresh -- were all built on the Intel 7 manufacturing process.
Intel 7 is derived from the company's 10-nanometer (nm) process, which was famously delayed for years. In order to deliver enough performance using inferior manufacturing tech, these chips needed to use far more power than the competition.
In benchmarks run by Anandtech earlier this year, Intel's last-generation flagship 14900K chip used about 70% more power than the comparable 7950X CPU from AMD. This is a problem for multiple reasons.
