Anonymous industry sources report that Intel may be switching its upcoming MeteorLake processors from a 7nm to a 5nm process node. What does that mean?
Intel may be making some major changes to the architecture of its upcoming Meteor Lake chips, industry sources say. This could potentially give Intel an edge over competitors such as Apple.
Intel Meteor Lake refers to Intel’s 14th generation of processors that are set to release in 2023, following Raptor Lake this year. The chips will also represent the first generation of Intel chips that will feature a multi-chiplet design, combining an application processor, a GPU, and connection chips into one advanced package referred to as “Intel Foveros.”
According to Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger, the production has been going well and the first Meteor Lake chips have already been able to boot Windows and Linux. Gelsinger said that “the speed at which the team was able to achieve this milestone is a significant sign of the health of both Meteor Lake and our Intel 4 process technology.”
Although there is something to be said for being able to produce its chips in-house, there could certainly be benefits for Intel from switching to TSMC — and those benefits might be an improvement for the end user.
