Intel Will Officially Debut Its Panther Lake Core Ultra 3 Processors at CES 2026

Not going to lie I have my fingers crossed for Intel. Lots of intelligent people over there who've been denied a chance to shine. Like when Mopar released the engineers to make the fun cars they wanted to make for a while.... Intel needs a solid resurgence.
 
I agree. I've been pissed at them for over a decade for some fairly half-arsed desktop releases, but I'm hoping lessons have been learned and the folks that are there now will have a true chance at succeeding. I'm still very skeptical but hoping for the best.
 
Ugh, more crap from Intel, this time even worse cuz it has THREE different kinds of cores.
Yeah the 3-core type strategy has me a little concerned, but between what's in my laptop and the ones I picked for our office, I've witnessed some impressive things with its predecessors. Still not as good as an X3D chip, but not horrible either. I still miss the older, more traditional architectures, but they might be onto something that can compete with ARM while keeping x86 alive.
 
Power efficiency does seem a good place for Intel to focus. Outside of server farms no one seems to consider cost of use - or perhaps I am just a penny pincher?
 
Intel needs to focus on IPC and memory performance. Give us a desktop design that can run two or four channel depending on mother board slot use. Folks that love memory speed for their stuff will be all about a consumer CPU that is speed comparative, winning in IPC and having true 4 channel memory bandwidth will rock the market for consumer grade tech.

But it will be a small set of super fast CPUs with some mid to lower tier CPUs in the mix. And it will perform alright...

They need to rule the roost in a big way for a part of the market then grow that. Just like AMD did.
