During the recent vision event, Intel first demonstrated the 14th generation meteor Lake processor and its chip packaging process However, before the official release, Le comptoir Du hardware has first exposed the core perspective of the new generation CPU It is reported that Intel has introduced hybrid core architecture design since the 12th generation alder lake, and the 13th generation Raptor Lake / 14th generation meteor Lake family also continues to provide the combination option of "high-performance p-core + energy-saving E-core".

As a reference, the 12th generation alder Lake CPU adopts golden Cove high-performance core (P core) + gracemont energy-saving core (E core).
The 14 core perspective photos with meteor lake also well reveal the chip design and scale of Redwood Cove + crestmont.

The 14 generation meteor Lake processor scheduled to arrive in 2023 is composed of three small chips: IO, SOC and compute tile.
During the earlier vision event, Intel has demonstrated the chip style based on standard design and high-density packaging (the first mobile platform).

For your understanding, @ locuza_ The functional notes of each chip module of meteor lake are also attached. It seems that the 14th generation CPU will have 2 p-cores + 2 E-core clusters (a total of 8 energy-saving E-cores).
In addition, each P / E core has 2.5-3.0mb L3 cache. As for L2 cache, Redwood Cove seems to be allocated 2MB, while golden Cove is 1.25mb (a group of clusters is 2-4mb).
According to this calculation, the meteor Lake CPU receiving penetration imaging this time seems to be an early sample of entry-level chips.
Finally, Intel used 7Nm (also known as Intel 4) process nodes for the CPU part, while the GPU (core display chip) part was OEM by TSMC, and finally all small chips were packaged on the same substrate.
If all goes well, Intel will share the actual use cases of the new design at CES 2023 consumer electronics exhibition early next year, and the meteor Lake product line covers models from ultra-low 5W to high-performance 125w TDP.
