Intel has finally announced the 14th generation Meteor Lake architecture at its highly anticipated Innovation 2023 event. According to the company, the new architecture is set to revolutionize the computing experience with on-device AI capabilities and energy-efficient performance. The new architecture is built on Intel 4 process technology and brings integrated Arc-based GPU to mobile processors. So if you want to learn more about Intel's upcoming 14th generation mobile processor, we've included all the details here.

Intel's 14th generation Meteor Lake mobile processors mark a huge paradigm shift in the company's history. With Meteor Lake processors, Intel is making its biggest architectural change in 40 years. The new processors are built on Intel 4 process technology, which delivers energy efficiency not seen in Intel chips before.

If you're wondering what exactly Intel 4 means, well, the company ditched the "nm" nomenclature in 2021 and came up with new naming conventions in line with the rest of the foundries like TSMC and Samsung. Intel 4 (formerly known as Intel 7nm) has a transistor density equivalent to TSMC's 5/4nm and much higher than Samsung's 4nm process node. So to truly reflect parity between third-party foundries, Intel has come up with a new naming convention.

The Intel 4 process node, despite being manufactured on the 7nm process, offers 20% better performance per watt than the previous Intel 7 process. Not to mention, the Intel 4 process technology takes full advantage of EUV lithography for better efficiency and performance per watt. And that's why the Meteor Lake chips will be the most energy-efficient processors made by Intel to date. That said, remember that the new Intel 4 process node is only used in the Compute panel, which consists of CPU cores – both P and E cores.
