Intel has officially launched its second-generation Core Ultra mobile processors, codenamed Lunar Lake. These advanced chips are designed to deliver exceptional energy efficiency and performance, targeting ultra-thin laptops and portable gaming devices.
The new Core Ultra 200V series features eight x86 cores (4P+4E) without Hyper-Threading support, integrated Xe2-LPG graphics, and a more powerful NPU for accelerating AI applications. The flagship model, Core Ultra 9 288V, boasts clock speeds up to 5.1 GHz and supports up to 32GB of LPDDR5X RAM.
Intel’s latest processors promise significant improvements in both performance and battery life, making them ideal for modern mobile devices. The Core Ultra series aims to meet the growing demand for high-performance, energy-efficient computing solutions in the ever-evolving tech landscape.
This strategic move by Intel is seen as a direct response to increasing competition from Qualcomm and AMD. Both companies have been making significant strides in the mobile processor market, with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon series and AMD’s Ryzen processors gaining popularity for their performance and efficiency.
