Meteor Lake Mobility CPU Lineup Expected Features:

  • Triple-Hybrid CPU Architecture (P/E/LP-E Cores)
  • Brand New Redwood Cove (P-Cores)
  • Brand New Crestmont (E-Cores)
  • Up To 14 Cores (6+8) For H/P Series & Up To 12 Cores (4+8) For U Series CPUs
  • Intel 4 Process Node For CPU, TSMC 5nm For tGPU
  • 'Xe-MTL' GPU With Up To 128 EUs
  • Up To LPDDR5X-7467 & DDR5-5200 Support
  • Up To 96 GB DDR5 & 64 GB LPDDR5X Capacities
  • VPU For AI Inferencing With Atom Cores
  • x8 Gen 5 Lanes For Discrete GPU (Only H-Series)
  • Triple x4 M.2 Gen 4 SSD Support
  • Four Thunderbolt 4 Ports

Moreover, Intel for the first time will include a dedicated VPU (Vision Processing Unit) which is a dedicated AI engine integrated into the chip which combined with additional accelerators featured on the CPU and GPU can deliver a big boost in performance. It is expected that the processors will see a huge bump in performance at AI workloads.

Intel Innovation 2023 starts on September 19th and is expected to unveil Intel's strategy for the future.
