The waltz of processors Intel does not seem to have to experience a drop in speed since a refresh is planned to make up for a slight delay.

While we do not yet know on which foot to dance with the next Intel processors, the American company seems to reserve the name of 14e generation to Meteor Lake architecture.

Refresh Raptor Lake before the end of the year

For a few weeks, we have known from an almost certain source that Intel no longer plans to launch Meteor Lake before the end of 2023, but rather during the first half of 2024.

A lapse of time that would have left the company headed by Pat Gelsinger without a new range as the holiday season approaches for the first time in several years. It was without counting on a “refresh” of the Raptor Lake which has been the subject of increasingly insistent rumours.

Today, we talk more about leaks than rumors about this refresh which could not be more clearly mentioned on an Intel roadmap. There are refreshes for all Raptor Lake ranges.

Meteor Lake will remain the 14e Intel generation

On the roadmap, we see that Intel associates the refreshes of Raptor Lake with most of its current desktop chipsets, whether it is the Z790 or the 700 family more generally, the Q670 or the W680.

It should be noted that the release of these “between two generations” CPUs is set for the third quarter of 2023, leaving ample time for Intel to begin its marketing campaign for availability in stores that can be estimated at October/ November 2023.

At the beginning of next year, therefore, the Meteor Lake generation will take over and, another leak from Intel, it will bear the name of 14e generation. There is therefore no question of passing the refresh of the Raptor Lake for a generation in its own right.
