Why is the 12th generation Core P doubled?There are signs of thin gaming notebooks in the 3rd generation EVO

The performance of the 12th generation Core P series is twice as much as the 11th generation Core Up3

　At this CES, Intel officially announced the 12th generation Core for laptops.The series are four, as follows.

1. Hシリーズ(ベースTDP 45W、ゲーミングPC向け、最大6xPコア/8xEコア、BGA1744)
2. Pシリーズ(ベースTDP 28W、薄型ノートPC向け、最大6xPコア/8xEコア、BGA1744)
3. Uシリーズ/通称U15(ベースTDP 15W、ウルトラポータブル向け、最大2xPコア/8xEコア、BGA1744)
4. Uシリーズ/通称U9(ベースTDP 9W、タブレット向け、最大2xPコア/8xEコア、小型パッケージ)

　Of these, only the H series is already shipped, and the P series and the U series are shipped this spring.For this reason, the data sheet of the H series has already been released, but the P/U series is private.Due to this, Intel highlighted the performance of the H series at this press conference, but rarely mentioned the P/U series.

　However, as described in the following article, the P series has a CPU core configuration of up to 6XP core/8XE core as the H series, and the performance has been greatly improved from the previous 11th generation Core (Tiger Lake) UP3.You may be able to expect.

　Regarding the performance of the P series, Daniel Rogers, Director of the Intel Client Computing Business Division, Marketing Division, said, "In the 12th generation Core, many OEM manufacturers have designed the heat -designed budget and the 11th generation.Then, the manufacturer who designed about 20W was also raised to 28W. Considering that amount, the 12th generation P series has a doubling performance compared to the 11th generation UP3."

　Including the raising of the heat design frame, it can be expected to improve double performance.

　At the time of the 11th generation Core, the design of the TDP 28W was possible, but a wide range from 15W to 28W was taken, and the point to be designed was left to the selection of the OEM manufacturer.

　However, in the 12th generation Core P series, the base TDP is 28W, and the OEM manufacturer is required to have an exhaust heat of 28w as a basic specification.This means the power consumption at the peak when operating with the AC adapter, and does not mean average power consumption that affects the battery drive time.The average power consumption is not significant for the 11th generation and the 12th generation.

　A simple example is XPS 13 Plus, which Dell announced at the CES timing.

　XPS 13 (Model 9310), equipped with the 11th generation Core, which is a conventional model of DELL, was designed to target TDP 15W, but XPS 13 Plus is designed to target TDP 28W.It is said that the performance has been greatly raised.

　However, at this time, DELL has not disclosed its specific performance.This may be due to the fact that the data sheet of the P series and the U series mentioned above is private and still before the official shipment.

　The U15 of the H/P/U series adopts the same BGA1744.According to Intel's Rogers, "H/P/U15 has the same package, and H has 8 lanes for PCI Express for DGPU, but there is no difference between P and U15.As stated, only the H series can attach DGPU with PCI Express X8.
