Computex 2023 Going strong in sunny Taiwan, and we’ve got boots on the ground to cover it all liquid-cooled graphics card To funny gaming chairs, However, as is often the case with big events like this, the most exciting thing we’ve seen so far wasn’t something big and bold: it was a very simple professional laptop.
The laptop in question is the MSI Prestige 16 Studio, which was found at MSI’s stand at the expo and was originally spotted by our friends tom’s hardware (Thanks guys). MSI wasn’t making a big deal out of the Prestige 16 Studio; It’s a relatively straightforward productivity laptop for creative professionals, equipped with an Nvidia RTX 4060 Mobile GPU and the latest Studio drivers.
It didn’t get the same attention as MSI’s insanely cool (and quite confusing) Stealth 16 Mercedes-AMG Motorsport Edition Gaming LaptopBorn out of a collaboration between MSI and the automotive manufacturer, the Prestige 16 Studio hides an intriguing secret: it appears to be powered by Intel’s 14th-generation ‘Meteor Lake’ CPUs, making it the first laptop of its kind. Seen in the wild.
Did MSI really mean to pretend this?
The somewhat hilarious part of this is that it looks like MSI didn’t really intend for anyone to find out that this new laptop was running on the Meteor Lake chip, as we usually expect from next-gen Intel components. expect to appear. With more fanfare and, you know, coming from Intel itself.
The Prestige 16 Studio was really locked in, showing only a promo video on screen when we were given some time to check out MSI’s hardware at the event, and the placard displayed next to the laptop simply said ‘latest Intel Core i7 processor’ Refers. , Normally, we’d assume this meant a 13th-gen Intel chip, but it looks like someone at the MSI stand made a mess and left the laptop open…
As you can see from the picture above, the processor doesn’t have an actual name listed within the laptop’s system information: it’s simply labeled ‘Genuine Intel(R) 0000’. This type of placeholder name is not an uncommon sight among demo units seen at events like Computex, but interestingly, core and thread counts are also listed – and we can extrapolate from those that it Not there One of Intel’s current laptop CPU lineup.
With 16 cores and 22 threads (the ‘logical processors’ seen in the image), this means we have 6 performance cores and 10 efficiency cores, as only double Intel’s P-core thread count allows for hyper- Threading capable. The operating frequency is listed as 3.1GHz but its likely not finalised. Final confirmation was found in Device Manager, which revealed an onboard Movidius VPU – a feature we know is unique to Meteor Lake chips.
So, this is our first glimpse of Intel’s next generation of laptop CPUs. exciting! Intel previously promised Very impressive performance and battery life for a Meteor Lake laptopSo this new model from MSI can prove to be a serious competitor to it. M2 MacBook Pro 16 Inch,
Someone at MSI is probably going to get a slap on the wrist from Intel for this mistake, but it’s not like we didn’t know Meteor Lake was coming. It’s good to have confirmation that we can expect the next generation of these laptops to arrive very soon — even if it’s not official word from Intel.
