Intel has announced the company's 14th Generation Raptor Lake Refresh HX-series mobile processors at CES 2024 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Spearheaded by the Core i9-14900HX, which wields 24 cores, the new HX-series chips cater to gamers, enthusiasts, content creators, and professionals that need high performance on the go.
Raptor Lake Refresh, which is produced on the Intel 7 node, hasn't change much in terms of design. Like the previous generation, Raptor Lake Refresh continues to exploit a hybrid design, which consists of performant Raptor Cove P-cores and and weaker Gracemont E-cores. While the core count has remained stagnant on the Core i9 and Core i5 SKUs, Intel has bolstered the E-cores along with the L3 cache on the Core i7 models. Intel has revealed five HX-series overclockable SKUs.
