Pat Kissinger: AMD is in the rearview mirror
On the first anniversary of taking over as Intel CEO, Pat Kissinger reviewed recent achievements in a video speech and said that "AMD is in the rearview mirror of the consumer market" and that "they (AMDs) will never appear on the windshield again."
Competitors who appear on their own "windshield" will obviously bring a strong sense of oppression. This may be the first time Intel has admitted that it has lagged behind AMD.
With the launch of the 12th Generation Core, Intel has breathed a sigh of relief and has more positive expectations: the 13th Generation Core L2 and L3 caches have increased significantly, further optimizing gaming performance.
The 14th generation Core will use Coveros 3D packaging technology and may introduce a small chip manufactured by TSMC for the first time in the CPU.
Of course, it is not necessary to say that AMD has been thrown into the rearview mirror. Despite the momentum of the 12th Generation Core, AMD also came up with the Ryzen™ 7 5800X3D with 3D V-Cache technology. In the MikyWay@Home distributed computing database has appeared in the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, according to AMD's plan, it will be available in the first quarter of this year.
It seems that Intel and AMD have reached a consensus in some places: increasing CPU caching can optimize game performance. But the Ryzen 7 5800X3D definitely came earlier than the 13th Generation Core.
Samsung announces the Exynos 2200:
Samsung today officially announced the launch of the Exynos 2200 mobile processor powered by amD RDNA2 architecture GPU. The Exynos 2200 will use a 4nm EUV polar UV lithography process that integrates an ARM v9 CPU core with a RDNA2-architecture Samsung Xclipse GPU.
Xclipse brings hardware-accelerated ray tracing (RT) and variable rate coloring (VRS) technologies previously only available on desktops, laptops, and game consoles to mobile devices. Samsung said the Exynos 2200 will enable the ultimate mobile gaming experience and enhance the overall experience of social apps and photography.
