Intel Announcements from CES 2021
-
11th-Gen Intel Core H-series Processor
The 11th-Gen H-series processors have simply 4 cores (AMD has 8 cores and 7nm structure) and a 35-watt thermal design profile. But, Intel says that these chips are as highly effective as the final yr’s 45-watt H-series chips and about 30% quicker than AMD’s 4800HS chip.
-
11th-Gen Intel Core vPro Processor
The 11th-Gen vPro chips are based mostly on the brand new 10nm TremendousFin structure and are mentioned to supply substantial-good points. It performs 23% quicker when utilizing Microsoft Office and 2.3x quicker video or picture enhancing. The spotlight will, nevertheless, should be the upgraded Hardware Shield and Threat Detection Technology (TDT).
