Intel’s Serpent Lake SoCs With NVIDIA RTX GPU Tiles Reportedly Arrive In Q1 2028

Intel's Serpent Lake SoCs featuring NVIDIA's RTX GPU tiles as integrated graphics are expected to roll out by Q1 2028.

Intel & NVIDIA's Co-Developed Serpent Lake SoCs Featuring Next-Gen CPU & GPU Architectures Rumored For Q1 2028

Last year, Intel announced that it was working with NVIDIA on a custom SoC that would incorporate NVIDIA's RTX GPU tiles. Intel stated that these SoCs will power a wide range of PCs that require the integration of these levels of CPUs & GPUs together into a single package.

It looks like we have our first timeline of when these SoCs will be introduced. According to Erdi Özüağ, as per the current Intel roadmap, the targeted date of these SoCs is the first quarter of 2028, and if the date holds, we can see an announcement as early as CES 2028. No details on the specs are mentioned, but an SoC coupling Intel's x86 CPUs with NVIDIA's RTX GPUs will definitely be a major deal for the PC segment.

Özel Haber: Intel’in güncel yol haritasına göre, NVIDIA grafik birimine sahip olan yeni nesil işlemciler için hedeflenen tarih 2028 ilk çeyreği, planlar değişmediği takdirde CES 2028 Fuarı, lansman etkinliği olabilir.

These SoCs will enter a market where Intel and NVIDIA are already competing with their most recent chips, such as Panther Lake and RTX Spark, both aiming at the AI PC segment. Intel Panther Lake targets premium laptops while RTX Spark targets high-end mobile workstations and professional PCs with a core focus on AI.

Recently, it was revealed that Razer Lake-AX will be the first generation of SoCs from Intel that will tackle AMD's Halo lineup. Razer Lake is expected to be the successor to Nova Lake, so it will launch sometime in 2027-2028, but it looks like the first SoC from Intel to utilize an NVIDIA GPU tile will come way later in the form of Serpent Lake.

Intel Serpent Lake SoCs will be a branch of the Titan Lake CPUs, featuring a Halo-like SoC design. Titan Lake is expected to be the successor to Razer Lake, and Hammer Lake is expected to be the successor to Titan Lake. These chips are planned for a 2028 launch. But Serpent Lake is special since it's a totally different SoC.

Now, it is not known what level of configuration the Serpent Lake GPU Tile would utilize, but it is said to be based on NVIDIA's RTX IP. If Serpent Lake is aiming for a 2028 launch, we can expect the Rubin GPU architecture to be featured on the SoC. So it will be an interesting chip, and the first to feature an RTX-class GPU on a chip besides NVIDIA's own SoCs, the first generation of which are already rolling out, and future generations are planned.
