Intel's latest Permon update has added support for next-gen Lunar Lake CPUs & confirmed the latest Lion Cove and Skymont core architectures.
Intel's Lunar Lake CPUs are expected to go into production in late 2024 but the work on these next-gen CPUs is already underway. As spotted by @InstLatX64, Intel has added support for the chips in its latest Perfmon update which confirms the core architectures that will be utilized by the next-gen Core CPUs.

According to the update, the Intel Lunar Lake CPUs are now confirmed to feature the Lion Cove P-Core architecture and the Skymont E-Core architecture. Once again, Intel will be using a hybrid & disaggregated design which it has sets its eyes on for future client CPUs. There are no details on an exact number of cores or any configurations but it's still too early to talk about them considering the launch takes place sometime in 2025.
As for the Lunar Lake CPUs, the next-gen family is supposed to utilize both Intel's next-gen and external foundry processes. Arrow Lake is already scheduled for Intel 20A so we can expect Lunar Lake to be built upon the refined 18A (Angstrom) process while utilizing next-gen Foveros package technology with a pitch size of 25 microns. Based on previous reports, the Lunar Lake CPUs will be utilizing a fresh architecture that is built from the ground up and will focus mainly on delivering a major leap in performance per watt.
Considering its mobile-focused nature, the Intel Lunar Lake CPUs will drop down the number of iGPU EUs from 192 (Arrow Lake) to 64 though they will be based on the brand new Battlemage graphics architecture and a wider SIMD design. These Xe2-LPG GPUs will not only offer better performance per watt but also deliver brand-new graphics features and technologies. The CPUs also come with a brand new VPU which you can read more about over here. The Lunar Lake chips will be competing with AMD's Zen 5+ chips when they launch on the mobile segment.

Intel's 14th Gen Raptor Lake Refresh Desktop CPUs allegedly feature an average 15% price hike over the 13th Gen CPUs, as reported by Momomo_US.
Somebody at MSI is on the naughty step today. Because the company accidentally published a public YouTube video detailing Intel's upcoming 14th Gen Raptor Lake refresh CPUs.
MSI has leaked Intel's 14th Gen Raptor Lake Refresh Desktop CPU lineup, basically confirming everything that we knew about the family till now.
Konami has shed more light on the resolution and framerate for its Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 across platforms.
Some new information regarding the Intel LGA 1851 platform which will feature support for the next-gen Arrow Lake Desktop CPUs has been revealed.
It’s easy to ignore or even forget Intel’s desktop GPUs. But the company has been working to squeeze out even more performance from its Arc graphics cards, thanks to driver updates made over the last three releases.
Intel is putting the finishing touches on its upcoming 14th Gen CPU range. As we draw closer to a launch, it's not uncommon to get a few leaks including performance estimates, a release date or a new feature. Some leaks are more credible than others, but these come directly from ASRock. So until we come to the launch day and an announcement from Intel, this is about as official as it gets.
The wait for Dead Island 2 lasted nearly a decade, but the game did finally launch earlier this year, and turned out to be a critical and commercial success. In May, it was revealed that the action RPG had sold over 2 million units worldwide, and interestingly enough, Embracer Group – parent company of publisher Deep Silver – is expecting those sales to accelerate next year when the game launches for another platform.
Remember that rumour Intel was scaling back on its plans for its next-gen Battlemage graphics architecture we reported last month? At the time we said something about it didn't square up. But now there's new, arguably more substantial, information that implies Intel hasn't reduced its ambitions for Battlemage at all. Intel's next Arc GPU could still be targeting performance up to Nvidia RTX 4080 levels.
The test tools for Intel's next-generation Battlemage GPUs which will be used in 2024's Arc gaming lineup have been spotted online.
In a development that will surprise no-one who knows computing history, it has been rumoured Intel's next-gen desktop CPUs, codenamed Arrow Lake, will contain a whole lot more cache memory. Like, potentially a 75% increase in total L2 cache for the top Arrow Lake CPU. And we've seen what a fat wad of cache can do for gaming performance, right?
