Intel Demos Dual-Core Xeons

At its Intel Spring Analyst meeting in New York on Thursday, Abhi Talwalkar, general manager of Intel’s Digital Enterprises Group showed off two working servers running upcoming dual-core implementations of Xeon code-named Dempsey and Paxville, respectively.

Dempsey is part of a dual-core server platform called Bensley, which features Intel’s Hyperthreading technology along with its new high-speed I/O acceleration channel. “We will ship thousands of seed systems to OEMs and the ISV community, in the second half of this year,” Talwalkar said in an interview after the event. The platform will officially launch during 2006, he added.

The Paxville dual-core part can be fitted into existing motherboards made for single-core Xeon processors. All that’s required to get the CPU up and running is a BIOS update. “

A boss fight in Armored Core 6

Following a hands-on preview of Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon, we had a chance to talk to the game's director, Masaru Yamamura, and producer Yasunori Ogura who wanted to assure players that the game would be "fully supported" on Valve's Steam Deck.

"Obviously seeing how well Elden Ring performed on the Steam Deck, we were very happy, and we wanted to at least create that as a baseline going forward for this handheld," Ogura tells Digital Trends. "So it is fully supported for Steam Deck ... we just want to reassure players that it will be fully supported."

Intel Arrow Lake: everything we know about the 15th-gen chips
Intel Core i5-13600K installed in a motherboard.

Intel Arrow Lake is the codename for a proposed 15th generation of Intel CPUs. That makes it the next, next-generation Intel architecture that will succeed not only the existing 13th-generation Raptor Lake, but the 14th-generation Meteor Lake, too. It will be built on a new, advanced process node, and may drop one of the most iconic features of Intel processors: hyperthreading.

There are a lot of unknowns with such a forward-thinking product design, but we do know a little about what Intel's working on. Here's everything we know about Intel Arrow Lake so far.

Intel’s most powerful CPUs may not launch until 2024
Intel Core i9-13900K held between fingertips.

Intel's next two generations of desktop CPUs are both exciting and confusing. Luckily, new information has come to light around what to expect.

The report comes from German publication Igor's Lab, which claims to have seen Intel's internal performance projections for these next two generations of chips. The report also affirms some of the details in Intel's desktop road map, including that the 14th-gen fall release will be a Raptor Lake Refresh rather than true Meteor Lake desktop chips. It also says the 15th-gen Arrow Lake is anticipated to launch in 2024.
