A secret Intel processor roadmap is making the rounds on the Internet, and it covers elements of the plan for the first months of 2023.
The leaked roadmap concerns Intel's chips to release in the year's first half. As planned, the H, HX, P, and U models from Raptor Lake will debut at the CES in January. Raptor Lake S is another name for Raptor Lake - specifically, the models without an unlocked multiplier and the H770 and B760 as a cheaper alternative to the Z790. Alder Lake N is a pleasant surprise; these are most likely processors with only E cores. According to the leaker, corporate customers may expect an update to the vPro platform and new server CPUs. Speaking of corporate clients, they may look forward to new processors as well. Intel has already confirmed Sapphire Rapids Max for January. However, server and workstation CPUs with an additional SP are unlikely to be shown before the end of February and are expected to go on sale in March/April.
One or two enthusiasts may be interested in HEDT in particular, but according to reports, the division that has been reawakened leans more towards workstations than hobbyists. The new Xeons are anticipated to target small businesses and content creators. The platform's appeal to enthusiasts is determined by the availability of adequate mainboards and, ultimately, the costs incurred.
