Intel graphics hardware engineer Santa Clara revealed information about a new architecture, codenamed Panther Lake, in a job description on Collider.
Intel has identified the problem and pulled down this information, but Tom’s Hardware has taken a screenshot and saved it.
Sadly, we currently know nothing about this mysterious architecture, but we can currently confirm that Panther Lake and its associated iGPU will be announced during the 22nd Intel Architecture Day. If the news is true, we should see more official descriptions by then.
According to the details that can be seen so far, Panther Lake and its iGPU will arrive after Meteor Lake, Arrow Lake and Lunar Lake. Considering that the latest Lunar Lake is scheduled to come out sometime in 2024, Panther Lake will not come out until around 2024 or 2025 at the earliest.
Wait until around 2024 or 2025, when Intel may use the Intel 20A process (the second half of 2024 if there is no delay) to produce this series of chips.
According to reports, Intel 20A will also use a new packaging architecture called RibbonFET and an interconnect technology called PowerVia. Although Intel has not released Intel 20A performance or energy efficiency data, there is no doubt that it will bring a higher performance advantage over existing 10nm products Alder Lake and Raptor Lake.
For reference, the upcoming Intel 4 for Meteor Lake promises a 20% performance-per-watt improvement over the existing Intel 7, while Intel 3, the optimized version of Intel 4, will deliver an 18% performance-per-watt gain over that.
