Intel Core Ultra 9 285k 'Arrow Lake' Discussion/News ("15th gen") on LGA-1851

Well first of all, what is the +28% game?

And I do really welcome a return to sane(r) power usage, but with these numbers and the cost of TSMC N3B I can't see this helping Intel much

For tuners and fiddlers, ARL plus top end CADIMM might be interesting - even if probably poor value.

I think it's Rainbow Six Siege which is very old and might be using APO
 
Seems we have another 11th gen situation here:cry:

It's a step in the right direction - this is Intel's first attempt at chiplets for desktop. AMD have far more experience doing chiplets.
Are Intel so amateur now that they have to be congratulated on something that AMD achieved 5 years ago? Go back that long and Intel were considered the best semiconductor company in the world. Nowadays their fabs are deadweight and their designs are barely faster than AMD despite a big node advantage.

Intel have plenty of experience and know-how on chiplets, etc. - they glued two dies together on the Q6600, etc. heh, instead they've largely banked that rather than put it to use so as to drip-feed consumers and more lately focussed more on the tiles approach.
 
11th Gen urrgh, what a complete turd that was. Glad I didn't go anywhere near it!!!
At least it worked :o :D

Arrow Lake seems a misstep so far to me.

EDIT: Though the focus with Arrow Lake wasn't all out performance from the start it has always been about working in new processing features for compute, AI, etc. though I've considered that is still a misstep.
Ugh, really? They must have seen the awesome sales of Zen 5 and thought "me, me!".

Times change. No king rules forever etc etc.

AMD had a great few years with Jim Keller's designs for Zen. He left plans for the next few iterations of Zen, which now appear to be fizzling out. Zen4 - Zen5 has been pretty disappointing - were it not for 3Dcache on the X3D parts, AMD would already be in trouble with Arrow Lake.

I imagine Intel will reach parity with AMD with their next gen after Arrow Lake and then probably succeed them - as now the process gap has been eliminated. Intel just need to work on optimising the chiplet design and possibly adding their own version of 3D Cache, as games just love that huge L3.

Either way, as I've mentioned a few times on this forum, it's my belief that Zen5 X3D (9800X3D & 9950X3D) will be the gaming performance flagships for at least 2 years from now.

I might have it wrong as I wasn't paying much attention but IIRC Zen 5 isn't an evolution of Zen 4, that will be Zen 6, Zen 5 I believe is more an evolution of Zen 3 (which in many was has ended up reinventing the Zen 4 wheel).

Which probably somewhat explains why the latency was messed up on release :s
