Intel MTL appears underwhelming at first sight. But it can be intel’s own zen1 moment with chiplets (tiles)
On a technical level, it’s hard to say why Meteor Lake has regressed in this test, but the CPU’s performance characteristics elsewhere imply that Intel simply might not have cared as much about IPC. Meteor Lake is primarily designed to excel in AI applications and comes with the company’s most powerful integrated graphics yet. It also features Foveros technology and multiple tiles manufactured on different processes. So while Intel doesn’t beat AMD or Apple with Meteor Lake in IPC measurements, there’s a lot more going on under the hood.
Yes. What is going on under the hood is chiplets foundation for future CPUs. Not to mention intel is not going to depend on TSMC for packaging(CoWoS/SoIC etc). It has its own foveros packaging tech. Note that this is the real bottleneck in high end GPU/CPUs right now.
From curent business side, Intel is finding unique ways to reduce opex and get lean.
On the other side, AMD has a free hand in 2024 too. While laptops will see other ARM entrants, datacenter is wide open and AMD comes top.
