Mobile version 12th generation Core exhibits performance exceeding M1 Max and Ryzen 9

Intel made a press release in conjunction with the CES held in Las Vegas, USA from January 3rd, and announced the "12th Generation Core Processor" (hereafter referred to as 12th generation Core) notebook PC version and additional SKU for desktop PC version were announced. As for the content of the announcement, please refer to another article, and in this article, I would like to explain the notebook PC version of the 12th generation Core.

　The 12th generation Core notebook PC version announced this time has three types: the H series with a TDP of 45W, the P series with a TDP of 28W, and the U series with a TDP of 15W/9W, and the U series has a TDP of 15W. There are two products available: U15, which has the same package as the H/P series, and U9, which has a dedicated small package at 9W. The conventional 11th generation Core processor (hereinafter referred to as 11th generation Core) has a simpler configuration, such as two types of packages, and it seems that the P series and U15 can be covered with the same motherboard. Since it has become, it has the feature that the product configuration of OEM manufacturers becomes more flexible.

In addition, the Core i7-1280P, which is the top product of the P series, has a configuration of 6 P cores and 8 E cores, which is equivalent to 1 P core with 4 cores, by adopting a hybrid architecture. In terms of the conventional 11th generation Core, it has been strengthened to a CPU configuration equivalent to "8 cores", and it seems that a significant performance improvement can be expected.
