The 13th generation Intel Core processors (Raptor Lake-S ), successors to the Alder Lake-S series, could be offered in configurations of up to 24 cores and 32 threads. That's in a BIG.little configuration of course.
This configuration of the Raptor Lake-S is due to the fact that the 8 high-performance cores (Golden Cove) present in the Alder Lake-S would remain , with the difference that the high-efficiency cores (Gracemont) will be multiplied by two, that is, we will see 16 of these cores , which do not offer HyperThreading technology. In addition, the series will add an increase in the IPC and the expansion of the instruction set, so the future of Intel looks quite promising.
