Intel says it will launch new core with Nova Lake on desktop first, not in data center — VP Robert Hallock hopes enthusiasts ‘do the math’ compared to AMD
Intel’s Robert Hallock says he hopes enthusiasts “do the math” compared to AMD, highlighting that the company’s new core architecture will release in consumer processors before the data center.
Intel's new core, Nova Lake, will debut on desktop first, not in the data center, according to Intel VP and general manager of the enthusiast channel business, Robert Hallock. Following AMD's launch of Zen 6 in the data center with EPYC Venice CPUs, Hallock expressed his optimism about Intel's roadmap. Intel will continue its "back to back to back to back" cadence of product releases for gamers, with a focus on accelerating for the gaming market.
The enthusiast desktop business remains steadfast in Intel's 2030 product lineup. Intel has taken steps to regain trust with the enthusiast community following the underperformance of Arrow Lake, which included a "completely different" team working on Arrow Lake Refresh.
