Fast Technology, February 8th - Just as we eagerly await the next-generation Arrow Lake and Lunar Lake processors, suddenly the name Bartlett Lake pops up, reportedly aimed at the entry-level desktop market, as a derivative of the existing 13th/14th generation Core series.
However, the latest leaks suggest that Bartlett Lake does indeed still utilize Intel's 7nm manufacturing process, with an overall architecture similar to the 13th/14th generation Core series, but primarily intended for network and edge computing applications.
In other words, it is not a product of Intel's CCG client computing division, but rather belongs to the NEX network and edge division.
However, insiders are not entirely clear on this, hinting that it is not out of the realm of possibility for it to be released into the consumer market.
As for specifications, Bartlett Lake has not been fully finalized either. It may have a maximum configuration of 8+16 cores and 32 threads, or possibly only up to 12 big P-cores (24 threads). After all, in the network and edge domain, the utility of E-cores is limited, and a hybrid architecture may pose scheduling issues.
Furthermore, the AI capabilities of Bartlett Lake could also be enhanced, continuing to support both DDR4 and DDR5 memory, with integrated graphics based on the Xe architecture, possibly up to UHD 770, and support for four-screen output.
