CES 2025 highlights new CPU and GPU developments with a focus on AI

At CES 2025, Intel announced new Core Ultra laptop chips aimed at gamers and premium laptops, featuring 10 to 24 cores. However, these chips will not meet the requirements for Microsoft’s Copilot+ designation due to performance limitations. Intel also introduced low-power chips for budget systems and updated its existing desktop-class Core series. The Core Ultra 200V will gain enterprise features, enhancing its management and security capabilities. Qualcomm revealed its Snapdragon X platform, targeting low-cost PCs, and improved app support for its Copilot+ devices. AMD announced new Ryzen CPUs but did not introduce new Radeon GPUs, focusing instead on performance and gaming partnerships.
