do I need a new workstation? yes, mine if 8 years old. do want one of these, yes, but I wish it had DDR5. uggghhh, have to wait another year...

Also somewhat doubt that a 8C+8C BIG.little type CPU is be best fit for a workstation.
Even with DDR5, this is going to be a desktop part with dual channel only, so anything DDR4 with quad channel (you know, a workstation platform) will stomp it on pure bandwidth.
Lakefield tells us that big.LITTLE isn't best fit for anything outside of mobile.Quote:

Having said that I am curious about 'real performance' on desktop just to see how it stands up against AMD etc.
What are the extra 500 pins doing?
So it's 16/32 or 16/24 ?
Making you buy a whole new platform.Quote:

At 1.4GHz it looks like these are intended for laptops, but then most Intel parts are. Why does the title say desktop?
To Be honest, I really don't care about having to buy a new motherboard, I only upgrade my CPU/motherboard every 5-6 years.Quote:

Sandra won't have the clocks right for starters...Quote:

Yeah that's fair. I wonder if the cache sizes are actually measured as well, or if it will be getting that wrong.Quote:

I haven't seen Intel announce PCIE5 on anything other than Agilex FPGA, Sapphire Rapids Server chip and Ponte Vecchio GPU. Yet, now I've seen notebookcheck and this article mention PCIE5 on Alder Lake.
If Intel has implemented CXL on Alder Lake's PCIE5, does that open up the possibility of master/slave configurations for multiple low power CPUs that could be used as accelerators in a scalable way?
