Comment on Intel breaks silence on 13th and 14th-gen Raptor Lake desktop CPU instability issues
Tarball@lemmy.world 1 month agoUp to 128 cores. Not meant for gaming, but it cranks at server tasks, compiling & coding tasks, etc.
There’s a windows dev kit (ARM) that I think is 3ghz: www.microsoft.com/en-us/d/windows-dev-kit-2023
But bleeding edge stuff from MS means likely driver issues, and this isn’t something you’ll throw a dedicated graphics card in.
Still, feels like the tide is changing away from Intel.

I have a 96 core one. While it’ll be fine as a desktop for compiling I’d stick with an AMD system.
The devkit has 6 memory channels, and you’ll want to fill them all - there’s a surprisingly high performance penalty if you don’t. Even then, compiling a code base which could be spread over hundreds of cores is still significantly slower on the ampere compared to my old 3970x.
