10th Gen Intel Core Processors: Highly Integrated;
Broad-Scale AI to the PC
Intel announced the first 10th Gen Intel Core processors,
bringing high-performance AI to the PC at scale with Intel® Deep
Learning Boost (Intel DL Boost). The processors are built on the
company’s 10nm process technology, new “Sunny Cove” core
architecture and new Gen11 graphics engine. 10th Gen Intel Core
processors will range from Intel Core i3 to Intel Core i7, with up
to 4 cores and 8 threads, up to 4.1 max turbo frequency and up to
1.1 GHz graphics frequency.
10th Gen Intel Core processors will take thin-and-light laptops
and 2 in 1s to the next level, offering:
- Intelligent performance: Intel’s
first processors designed to enable high-performance AI on the
laptop, delivering approximately 2.5x AI performance1 with Intel DL
Boost for low latency workloads. The new graphics architecture
delivers up to 1 teraflop of vector compute for heavy duty
inference workloads to enhance creativity, productivity and
entertainment on highly mobile, thin-and-light laptops. For
low-power AI usages on the PC, Intel® Gaussian Network
Accelerator (GNA) is built into the SoC.
- A leap in graphics capabilities:
New Intel Iris Plus graphics, based on the Gen11 graphics
architecture, nearly doubles performance2 for stunning visual
experiences. Reach pro-level content creation capabilities on the
go with approximately 2x HEVC encode4; watch 4K HDR in a billion
colors5; game with up to 2x faster FPS6 and play thousands of
popular titles in 1080p.
- Best-in-class connectivity:
Delivering both integrated Thunderbolt™ 3 and integrated Intel®
Wi-Fi 6 (Gig+) for the first time to enable nearly 3x faster
wireless speeds3 alongside the fastest7 and most versatile port
available. Intel’s Gig+ implementation of Wi-Fi 6 connectivity
delivers greater than 1 Gbps wireless speeds8 with enhanced
reliability and performance.
Intel’s highly integrated 10th Gen Intel Core processors give
OEM partners the freedom to innovate on design and aesthetic by
reducing the silicon footprint while still delivering the latest
and greatest standards and world-class performance. The new 10th
Gen Intel Core processors are now shipping, with OEM systems
expected to be available for holiday 2019.
Project Athena: Accelerating the Pace of Innovation
Intel also shared more details on its innovation program
code-named “Project Athena,” including the 1.0 target
specification9 that will usher in the first wave of laptops in the
second half of this year. The company also previewed some of the
first designs to come from partners spanning consumer and
commercial including Acer*, Dell*, HP* and Lenovo*.
Based on years of research to understand people’s needs,
challenges and expectations of the laptop, the program prioritizes
enabling experiences that are reflective of real-world conditions
as measured by “key experience indicators” (KEI).
Intel developed the new KEI engineering metrics, used during the
program’s verification process, to test and drive consistent
experiences on the laptop. Metrics are based on day-in-the-life
research of laptop users at home or at work under real-world
conditions. Intel’s goal for the new metrics is to work with the
ecosystem to drive innovation that noticeably impacts people’s
experiences on the laptop and evolve those capabilities year over
year. The first wave of KEI targets includes:
- Consistent responsiveness on
battery10
- 16 or more hours of battery life in
local video playback mode11 and 9 or more hours of battery life
under real-world performance conditions12
- System wake from sleep in less than 1
second13
The specification that will enable these experiences includes
platform-level requirements – such as Thunderbolt 3, Intel Wi-Fi 6
(Gig+), OpenVINO AI on PC compatibility and modern connected
standby – across six areas: instant action, performance and
responsiveness, intelligence, battery life, connectivity and form
factor. For highlights of the 1.0 target specification, see the
Project Athena fact sheet.
As part of Project Athena, Intel is providing co-engineering
support across the ecosystem – with more than 100 companies signed
on – and new tools and Open Labs facilities to support verification
and testing of laptops.
Project Athena is a multi-year journey, with today’s
announcement on the 1.0 target specifications and design previews
representing just the beginning.
Performance Leadership for Gamers, Enthusiasts, Content
Creators and Professionals
Intel made several more disclosures, including the announcement
of the special edition 9th Gen Intel Core i9-9900KS processor,
which has been fine-tuned to deliver 5 GHz all-core turbo, making
the world’s best gaming desktop processor14 even better. It is
expected to be available by holiday 2019.
For the first time, the company also showed the new Intel®
Performance Maximizer (IPM), an automated overclocking15 tool that
brings overclocking to the masses by making it easy to dynamically
and reliably custom-tune unlocked 9th Gen Intel Core desktop
processors based upon their individual performance DNA. IPM will be
free and is part of the Intel® Adaptix™ Technologies toolkit, a
collection of advanced software technology tools that helps OEMs
and consumers maximize platform-level performance and experience.
The toolkit also includes Intel® Dynamic Tuning Technology, Intel®
Extreme Tuning Utility and Intel® Graphics Command Center.
Finally, the company shared updates on three more product
lines:
- Intel launched 14 new 9th Gen Intel
Core vPro processors for high-performance mobile (H-series) and
desktop (S-series) PCs, the highest performing business processors.
Intel® Core™ i9 vPro™ processors – with up to 8 cores and 16
threads reaching up to 5 GHz on desktop and up to 4.8 GHz on mobile
– join the best-for-business Intel® vPro™ platform for the first
time, delivering superior performance on demanding workloads for an
exceptional business user experience, built-in security features,
remote manageability and stability.
- Intel launched 14 new Intel® Xeon® E
processors for mobile and desktop workstations that are
purpose-built with professional-grade performance, real-time data
analytics capabilities, built-in platform security features, and
remote manageability features as part of the Intel vPro platform.
For the first time, Intel Xeon E processors include: up to 8 cores,
16 threads, 5 GHz turbo frequency, Wi-Fi 6 (Gig+), Intel® Optane™
Memory H10 and 128 GB DDR4-2666 ECC memory support.
- Plus, Intel announced that the new
Intel® Core™ X-series family of processors for premium creators
will come this fall. These processors will bring frequency
improvements, increased memory speed and updated Intel® Turbo Boost
Max Technology 3.0.
