The chip has a core-configuration of 16 P-cores, 32 E-cores, and 4 low-power island E-cores. For reference, a current Core Ultra 9 285K with Extreme power profile can pull up to 490 W PL4 in short bursts. <\/p>\n
In related news, leaks by Jaykihn shed light on the way clock speeds of the various CPU core types are handled. The base frequency affects the clock speeds of P-cores and E-cores located in the Compute complex, but not those of the low-power island E-cores. “Nova Lake-S” will be Intel’s first desktop processors to implement low-power islands, allowing the processor to clock-gate almost the entire compute complex when the PC is idling.<\/p>\n
