AMD is not about to let Intel steal the show with its new Alder Lake-based Core i3 processors. Instead, AMD is reportedly poised to fight back with new Ryzen 3 and Ryzen 5 chips codenamed Renior-X.

Intel announced at the Supercomputing 2021 tradeshow that the company’s forthcoming Sapphire Rapids processors will come with up to 64GB of HBM2e memory and also pointed to brisk development on the platform side, with a broad range of partners working to bring OEM systems to market with both Sapphire Rapids and Ponte Vecchio.

For now, Intel offers only the highest-end Alder Lake processors for desktops with up to 16 Golden Cove and Goldmont cores. However, come 2022, the company will roll out its mainstream and entry-level parts with up to six cores. As it turns out, those CPUs will use entirely different silicon die that will physically lack energy-efficient Goldmont cores.

Owing to its very strong lineup of client and server CPUs as well as booming demand for PCs and servers, AMD has been posting a 50% year-over-year revenue growth for five consecutive quarters.

By now, it’s common knowledge that Intel’s 12th Generation Alder Lake will be the first mainstream processor platform to embrace DDR5 memory.

Intel’s 12th Generation Alder Lake processors are scheduled to debut in Fall 2021 to compete with the Best CPUs for Gaming on the market.

Adata and Asus have come together to make the new XPS D50 “Long Yao” ROG STRIX memory kit for the Chinese market.

AMD released the EPYC 7003-series (Milan) processors for data centers a little over a year ago. However, the chipmaker is reportedly preparing a Milan overhaul that features 3D die stacking.

The upcoming wave of 12th Generation Alder Lake processors from Intel have been rumored to support both DDR5 and DDR4 memory. However, a new UserBenchmark submission, courtesy of Tum Apisak, showed that Alder Lake’s performance could be affected if paired with the latter.
