After more than ten years of P4, Intel has always insisted that the mainstream platform has a maximum of 4 cores and 8 threads. AMD first introduced 8 cores on the desktop in the bulldozer era.

Unfortunately, the performance was not good. Until the Ruilong charged again in 2017, for more than 10 years, AMD has been It has the upper hand in multi-core, but it will be overturned by Intel this year, and the mainstream Zen4 platform is still 16-core.
The AMD’s 5nm Zen4 was reported that the highest TDP can reach 170W, which is higher than 105W TDP. This may be related to the higher performance and frequency of Zen4, and stronger heat dissipation is conducive to improving the processor’s performance.
However, this also confirms that the Zen4 desktop version still has a maximum of 16 cores and 32 threads. Compared with the current Ryzen 9 5950X, the number of cores has not been increased.
On the other hand, the 16-core stop of Zen4 also gives Intel a chance to win the multi-core madman, because the 13th-generation Core Raptor Lake in the second half of this year will be upgraded to a 24-core architecture
We know that the 13th generation Core will continue to use the Intel 7 process and hybrid architecture, of which the number of small cores is expected to double to 16, with a total of up to 8 large 16 small 24 cores and 32 threads
As for the release time, the 13th generation Core is expected to be released at the end of the Q3 quarter, that is, in September or earlier, which is actually much earlier than last year’s 12th generation Core.
