A tweet from a relatively anonymous source presents documentation from the Far East – according to Intel is planning the official presentation of its new generation of processors on the exact day that the first Ryzen 7000 processors will arrive in stores
the account [email protected] He is very far from being one of the popular ones in the arena of hardware leaks on Twitter, with only 132 followers since it was activated in 2012 and absolute minimalism in the text that accompanies the various images that appear every few days – but it is possible that precisely now he is the first who managed to put a fat and juicy fish on his rod, with a picture Simple from a presentation presented in Taiwan and in it Intel’s road map for the launch (Go To Market) of its new generation of Core processors.
According to the slide, courtesy of other knowledgeable translators from the web, Intel will schedule the presentation of the desktop Raptor Lake models for September 28, 2022, or September 27, 2022 in the late evening hours in most of the world depending on the time difference – in addition to opening options for pre-ordering the Core i9 model -13900K the senior through selected marketing partnerships.
About two weeks later, on October 13, a pre-order option will also be opened for the cheaper Core i7-13700K and Core i5-13600K models – and on October 20 the practical availability in stores of these three models will arrive along with additional models with carrier envelopes And prices are cut, similar to the long-standing tradition known to us from the chip maker’s home product catalog.
Is the timing of the announcement of the new models, alongside motherboards based on the Z790 chipset (and possibly others), exactly on the day AMD’s Ryzen 7000 processors go on sale to the general public a mere coincidence – or an ambitious plan to disrupt the red celebration with possible evidence of this That the equivalent models from the Raptor Lake series are more powerful or more affordable? We hope that this leaked information is indeed reliable as a first step, and hope to get more details on the subject as soon as possible.
One thing seems certain, already – the fight between AMD and Intel at the end of 2022 and during 2023 is going to be especially hot and interesting, with a leap in performance on both sides and the adoption of new technologies which should only do us, the users, good.
