What to Expect From Intel

Starting off, Intel will launch the i9-13900KS, the non-K/F/non-F Raptor Lake SKUs at CES. In addition, we will also see the mobile-based Raptor Lake CPUs and the budget-oriented H770 and B760 motherboards. Personally, we think that team blue might give us a glimpse of their upcoming GPU architecture codenamed ‘Battlemage‘. Furthermore, Intel will unveil both its upcoming server and workstation SPR CPUs. The first week of January looks extremely busy for Intel. All aforementioned products will be showcased on the 3rd of January at 6:00. Only the RL-P CPUs along with the workstation products have been mentioned with a proper release date.
