With this new driver, Intel has delivered up to 43 percent better performance in DX9 with smoother frame times too. 

Back in 2019, Apple acquired Intel's smartphone modem business for roughly $1 billion, giving Apple everything it needs to develop its own WiFi chips for future devices. We've yet to see Apple make the jump to its own WiFi modems in the iPhone and it looks like the company will …

Up to now, the only known Intel Arc GPU with 16 Xe-cores is the A550M for laptops. However, a new and unknown Intel Arc GPU packing the same number of Xe-cores has now been spotted, but unlike the A550M, the high clock speeds suggest it's a desktop card. The card …

As AMD and Nvidia have mostly stopped releasing MXM-based products, we thought the standard would be dead by now for GPUs. However, that doesn't seem to be the case, as Intel and Gunnir have just made an Arc A380 GPU available using that form factor. As spotted by BionicSquash, Gunnir …

Videos of laptops using Intel's new flagship mobile processor have started to trickle out, with initial data suggesting this CPU could be very capable indeed.
