Intel Panther Lake processors could pack up to 16 cores, maximum of four performance cores according to leak

12th Gen Alder Lake.

Intel's codename Panther Lake processors could be vital to Intel's finances as they will be made at the firm's own fabs, which is important in the context of its current struggles. But what about the actual configuration of these upcoming CPUs? Some leaked specs via hardware blogger Jaykihn, who found Coreboot records of Intel's Panther Lake processors, are perhaps not as impressive as some will have hoped. 

As expected, Intel's Panther Lake will feature four different configurations (technically, there are three of them, but one is an HX version that comes with higher clocks and therefore a 45W processor base power), each featuring four high-performance cores and four ultra-low-power cores, if these details are correct. The number of efficiency cores will vary depending on the exact SKU.
