Big cat sighting: Intel shows off Panther Lake at Computex
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Computex 2025 was a rather quiet show this year, and no company was quite as quiet as Intel. We didn't get a keynote or a press conference from Team Blue, but that doesn't mean the company was entirely silent. In small press demos, Intel showcased its new flagship Arc Pro B50 and B60 GPUs and walked folks through the recent improvements to the Arrow Lake lineup. For the company's upcoming 18A flagship CPU, Panther Lake did appear in two demos on test rigs. While we still haven't had a deep dive into Panther Lake, here's what we know so far. Intel's Panther Lake chipset is expected to enter production this fall with a full consumer-ready launch beginning in early 2026. Panther Lake is a chipset built for mobile platforms and will likely hit the shelves as the Intel Core Ultra 300 series with the classic H and U suffixes. Panther Lake is the first commercial chip to be made with Intel's 18A (1.8nm) foundry process, and will thus be the company's first chipset made on a two-nanometer-class process node. Intel's Core Ultra 200V Lunar Lake series was a 'one-off' in that the suffix won't be reused in the 300 series. But that doesn't mean the chipset is entirely done. Intel sees Panther Lake as a "best of both worlds" solution, with the power efficiency of Lunar Lake and the performance of Arrow Lake H. Intel is also updating its Arc integrated graphics platform to fit on the Panther Lake SoC (system-on-a-chip), offering enhanced 3D rendering and AI performance. Intel expects Panther Lake chipsets to power consumer laptops, gaming hardware (including potential gaming handhelds), and commercial laptops, from standard business productivity devices to workstations. As the Panther Lake chipset is still not in full production, Intel was showcasing the new silicon in reference validation platforms and prototype dev kits used in Intel's internal test labs. Intel's demo team tasked Panther Lake with automatic AI masking in DaVinci Resolve, and the color changes and text implementation were done near instantaneously. Intel also demonstrated Panther Lake's LLM power with Qwen 2.5, tasking the AI with creating a Python program. Panther Lake's AI accelerators kicked back an instant token, essentially doing the work of weeks (or months) in a heartbeat. Intel's final Panther Lake demo was again an AI task, this time using Topaz Labs' photo upscaling to increase the pixel count and balance the colors of a photo simultaneously. But don't just take my word for it. Intel published a walkthrough of all three Panther Lake demos to YouTube. Since Intel makes chips and not end-user devices, the performance seen in the demos may not be entirely indicative of what we get from laptop manufacturers. But the demos are incredibly compelling, even if performance is likely to vary across different slices of the chipset and different OEM configurations. Panther Lake is on track for production in the second half of this year, with a full consumer launch expected in early 2026. If any early Panther Lake systems do end up hitting the market, I wouldn't expect to see them until at least October. Lunar Lake launched in early September last year, but Arrow Lake H didn't come in until February, so Panther Lake is likely to come somewhere between those two timeframes. We'll likely get more details on Panther Lake over the summer, if not at a full press conference, as part of an Intel Tech Tour. The initial launch could come any time between September and December 2025, with broader availability coming between January and March.

Intel launches new AI-centric GPUs at Computex 2025
Intel, at the ongoing Computex 2025 event, has unveiled a brand new range of GPUs, primarily intended for AI and workstation-related use cases. These include new Intel Arc Pro GPUs as well as the Intel Gaudi 3 AI accelerators. These are professional-grade GPUs, primarily designed for AI workloads and to be used in work-centre environments. Alongside this, Intel has also launched its AI Assistant Builder, which happens to be open source. This is a framework for building and running AI agents on Intel-based AI PCs. It has been released on GitHub in a beta capacity. Here's what you need to know about the latest announcements. Also Read: Paytm introduces option to hide specific transactions from history: Here's how it works Intel has launched the Arc Pro B60 and Pro B50 GPUs, which are based on the Xe2 architecture. These feature Intel's Xe Matrix Extensions (XMX) AI cores and ray tracing units, enabling high-end performance for creators, developers, and engineers. Intel says that both GPUs are designed for today's demanding AI inference workloads and workstation applications. The Arc Pro B60 GPU comes with 24GB of memory, while the Arc Pro B50 GPU offers 16GB of memory. Both also support multi-GPU scalability. Intel also states that these GPUs are optimised for AEC (Architecture, Engineering, and Construction) and inference workloads. These GPUs are compatible with both consumer and professional drivers on Windows. On Linux, they support a containerised software stack to simplify AI deployments. Intel also announced new deployment options for its Gaudi 3 AI accelerators. The Gaudi 3 PCIe cards now support AI inferencing within existing data centre server environments. According to Intel, customers running AI models like Llama can benefit from the ability to run models ranging from Llama 3.1 8B to full-scale models like Llama 4 Scout or Maverick, thanks to the scalability of Intel's hardware. Intel says its Gaudi 3 Rack Scale System reference designs are built for scalability and flexibility, supporting up to 64 accelerators per rack and 8.2TB of bandwidth memory. The systems also feature a modular design to prevent vendor lock-in and utilise liquid cooling to ensure performance while keeping total cost of ownership low. Intel states that the Arc Pro B60 GPU will be sampled by board partners such as ASRock, Sparkle, Gunnir and others starting June 2025. The Arc Pro B50 GPU will be available from Intel-authorised resellers in July 2025, with broader availability expected in the second half of 2025.

Intel is seemingly preparing a huge Battlemage GPU reveal at Computex 2025 – and it's expected to be a higher-end offering
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Intel just teased a new Battlemage Arc GPU, asking gaming fans to 'stay tuned' It's expected to be revealed at Computex 2025 alongside new Arc Pro and AI GPUs It could be a great opportunity for Team Blue to catch up to its rivals, with a more powerful, higher-end GPU compared to the Arc B570 and B580 With Computex 2025 now upon us, it's nearly time for plenty of tech reveals from handheld gaming PCs, processors, and GPUs – and Intel has hinted at a few big reveals to challenge its rivals, Nvidia and AMD. In a post on X, Intel announced that it will be revealing new Arc Pro and AI GPUs at Computex; most importantly, it's just hinted at a new Battlemage GPU, with 'stay tuned' replies to users who flooded the replies with requests for the GPU purported as the 'Arc B770' for gamers. Multiple rumors have been widespread regarding Team Blue potentially releasing a higher-end GPU as an upgrade from its previous GPUs (reported by VideoCardz), after its Arc B570 and Arc B580 GPUs launched late last year. One in particular seemingly revealed Intel's plans for a new Arc B580 with 24GB of VRAM, which is a significant upgrade from the current model's 12GB. It's also expected to come alongside other 24GB Pro GPUs for workstations. Thanks to Intel's new teasers, these rumors now have more credibility, although it's not exactly clear if it will be unveiling both a new Arc B580 24GB GPU and an entirely new Arc B770, or just the latter alone. However, one clear thing is that gamers will be getting a new Battlemage GPU, and one that is more powerful than any of Team Blue's previous offerings – and a Computex 2025 reveal looks imminent. It's no secret that despite the successes and impressive gaming performance from both the Intel Arc B580 and Arc B570, Team Blue still has some catching up to do with Nvidia and AMD. Fortunately, this rumored GPU sounds like it might be the start of that. Both of its recent Battlemage GPUs aren't high-tier GPUs, but still manage to provide great performance results at 1080p and 1440p resolutions as budget options – but now, it sounds like Intel is making an effort in providing GPUs that are closer to middle or high tier (or at the very least more powerful GPUs than what is available). While nothing is guaranteed, I'm hoping this is indeed the case because affordable GPUs need a greater focus for budget gamers; AMD's Radeon RX 9070 and 9060 series are a prime example of this (despite the inflation issues of partner cards). I'm still keeping my expectations low, as I'm anticipating that there won't be any 'high-end' GPUs like the rumored Arc B580 24GB might suggest; at least, I don't see any of Intel's new GPUs matching or competing against the likes of an RTX 5070 Ti. However, the rumors indicate that Intel is potentially cooking something that will make gamers take it more seriously when it comes to the GPU market – and I'm hoping it's a major surprise. Intel's Arc B770 GPU could go head-to-head with Nvidia's RTX 5060 – and it's expected to be revealed at Computex Intel's latest boasts about its integrated graphics makes me less excited for the Nintendo Switch 2 - and more hyped for the MSI Claw 8 AI+ Laptop processors are better than ever, but I still don't give a hoot about 'AI PCs' - and neither should you
