Intel earlier revealed some key details about its Lunar Lake CPU family, but more technical information was withheld. At Computex 2024, they officially unveiled the Lunar Lake CPUs, sharing major details. The new Intel Lunar Lake processors boast power efficiency with a 40% improvement and offer a 3x boost in AI performance. The new chip architecture delivers 48 TOPS (tera-operations per second) and integrates both new performance cores (P-cores) and efficiency cores (E-cores). Let’s dive into all the details of these next-generation processors.

Intel’s Lunar Lake CPUs will succeed the Meteor Lake chips once available,  offering improved performance over them. The Lunar Lake chips will be available later this year for Copilot+ AI PCs. The new chipset architecture has 48 TOPs of AI performance, which is a big upgrade over the 10 TOPs NPU in the existing Meteor Lake chipsets. Despite the big increase in TOPs, Lunar Lake is slightly below the Ryzen AI 300 CPUs with 50 TOPs NPU.

The new Intel chipsets have an onboard memory feature akin to Apple Silicon. The chips will be available in two onboard memory configurations – 16GB or 32GB of RAM. Thanks to the onboard memory, the new processors have low latency and the system power usage has dropped by 40 percent.

The new chips pack an Xe2 GPU that the company claims delivers 80 percent faster gaming performance compared to Meteor Lake’s GPU. There are now AI accelerators with 67 TOP of performance. As for the cores, Lunar Lake has eight cores with new performance (P-cores) and new efficiency cores (E-cores).

Coming to the connectivity bit, the new architecture comes with support for Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, and PCIe Gen 5. Unfortunately, it has Thunderbolt 4 support, we expected Thunderbolt 5.

Intel hasn’t revealed the exact release date for the Intel Lunar Lake, however, we should know about the date soon. Lunar Lake chips should essentially arrive by fall this year. We are expected to see them in Microsoft Copilot+ AI PCs sometime later.

The Lunar Lake CPUs from Intel compete with AMD’s Ryzen AI 300 processors and Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X Elite and X Plus chips.

Yesterday, at the Computex 2024 event, AMD unveiled the Ryzen AI 300 chips and Qualcomm unveiled the Snapdragon AI desktop PC processors.
