Nova Lake

Lip-ba tan revealed that CPUS Nova Lake will close the gap in the tip desktop market. They must be released for both desktops and mobile devices. However, clearly, this line is more focused on the desktop segment.
In this same segment, AMD is demonstrating brutal competition and leads in all segments: performance, games, efficiency and multithreading.
Process 18a will remain based on at least three generations of products for customers and servers. And this suggests that Nova Lake will use an optimized 18th version. It must come with up to 52 nuclei and the latest XE graphic architecture.

SMT Return

Starting with Choir Rapids, The company will once again incorporate SMT into its P-core architecture. He had been completely eliminated with the Lion Cove P-Cores and also with the future Panther Cove/Cougar Cove P-Cores.
