End-of-life notice issued for Intel Lakefield hybrid processors

end-of-life intel lakefield hybrid processor

Intel launched Core i3-L13G4 and Core i5-L16G7 penta-core Lakefield Hybrid processors last year with one high-performance Sunny core, and four high-efficiency Atom Tremont cores, in a way that’s similar to what Arm is doing with DynamIQ and before that, big.LITTLE technology. The new processors were found in Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Fold foldable tablet and Samsung Galaxy Book S laptop, both premium products sold for over $2,000. Even some large websites never got hold of a testing sample of those products, and Anandtech has just reported that Intel published a product change notification (PCN) with the title “Select Intel Core Processors with Intel Hybrid Technology, PCN 118334-00, Product Discontinuance, End of Life”. The discontinuance of Lakefield hybrid processors is a shocker considering they were just introduced last year, but I don’t think it will affect many people as I hadn’t heard about any upcoming boards or products based on Intel’s hybrid […]

Vecow ABP-3000 AI Edge gateway combines Hailo-8 AI accelerator with Intel Whiskey Lake processor

Vecow ABP-3000-AI Hailo-8 accelerator

We first discovered Hailo-8 AI accelerator with claims of up to 26 TOPS performance and 3TOPS/W efficiency in October 2020. Since then, we’ve seen several integrate an Hailo-8 M.2 module into their design including EdgeTuring Edge AI camera and Vecow VAC-1000 gateway with a 24-core Foxconn processor. Vecow has now integrated the Hailo-8 AI accelerator into another gateway, but instead of relying on an Arm processor, the Vecow ABP-3000 AI computing system features an 8th generation Intel Core Whiskey Lake processor.

GMK NucBox2 Review – Windows 10, Unraid OS on a Coffee Lake mini PC

GMK NucBox2 Review

Karl here. Today we are going to look at a mini PC. It is by GMK. GMK’s first foray looks to be the NucBox, a super tiny mini pc. I would call the NucBox2 its older, bigger, more capable brother. What stood out to me was the M.2 4x NVMe slot. I don’t anticipate a superfast SSD to come with the NucBox2 but we will see. The NucBox2 only had one 8 GB stick of memory and I had an extra stick laying around so I installed it to get dual-channel support. I think they are doing this mini PC a disservice using memory in single-channel mode. A quick Google search shows an 8GB stick is about $50 and I would highly recommend this upgrade.
