Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 73651, member: 636"] Intel's apparently prepping at least four Nova Lake-S desktop chips with that new bLLC cache setup, according to leaks from Kopite7kimi. The unlocked models are split between dual compute tile configs that pack up to 48 cores plus 4 low-power efficiency cores with 288 MB of bLLC, and single tile variants maxing at 24 cores with 144 MB cache. The dual tile parts use either 8+16 or 8+12 core arrangements per tile, while single tile models follow the same core split patterns. Motherboard makers are gonna face some heat dealing with power delivery on the new LGA 1954 socket for these chips. This whole bLLC push looks like Intel trying to match what AMD's been doing with 3D V-Cache on Ryzen processors, which have been crushing it for gaming performance and efficiency. The leaker says plans could shift since nothing's locked down yet. [/QUOTE]
