"Today is the New Year's Eve, I believe that many friends have returned to work, starting to have a busy new year, I wish you all the best! Pig smooth! In addition, I also envy the children's shoes that are still on vacation. ......
It is said that the core manufacturers affecting the PC market must be inseparable from Intel, AMD, NVIDIA.
Whether it is a notebook, a desktop or DIY field, each upgrade of the product is closely related to them, then what new actions will these three core manufacturers in 2019? Next, the author will take some inventory. (Something is also asking everyone to study more than a lot of games, don't think about criticism ~)
Intel: full attack of blue camp
In 2019, INTEL will be a comprehensive adapter, in addition to launching 9 generations of cool mobile version of the processor, the full 10nm process will also be an important part of the morale, and "Project Athena" project, XE independence The graphics card or the like will also further consolidate Intel's influence.
Appointment new CEO focus four key tasks
At the beginning of 2019, Intel officially appointed Robert Swan for the new CEO, replacing Brian Krzanich (Kozi) work, and Robert Swan has also become the seventh CEO in Intel 50 years.
Since 2016, Robert Swan serves as the Intel CFO and 7 months of temporary CEO. In the future, he will lead Intel to focus on four key tasks.
The four key tasks include: brave fearless, sustainably attacking data new markets; continue from PC-centric companies to data-centric companies; improved implementation; development company culture.
Although these four points are some macro-state, we can still see the determination of Intel constantly innovation and transformation.
9-generation cool removal mobile processor released in the second quarter
Intel issued a 9-generation cool-proof processor family in October last year, but the first batch of only I9-9900K, i7-9700K, i5-9600K three desktop processors, but with the first time I9 sequence and 8 core 16 threads Mainstream desktop platform, 5GHz maximum Rui frequency frequency, return to brazing heat and heat and other characteristics, these three processors have also achieved high attention.
On CES 2019, Intel has added 6 new models for the 9th generation cool processor family, including I5-9400 and 5 processors that do not have a nuclear end of F as ending, and Intel also revealed the 9-generation cool Rui mobile processor plan. Published in the second quarter of 2019.
That is, the earlier in April, we can see the notebook equipped with a 9-generation cool decent processor, such as the recent exposure of an 8-core 16 thread I9-9980HK mobile processor.
10nm process is full
I'm thinking about it, 14nm has gone through the five years. From the 5th generation of Core, 2014, the 9-generation cool-Rui, the 9-generation cool Rui, which was released last year, has always been used by 14nm technology, although the 14nm +, 14nm ++ optimization process is derived from 7-generation cool Rui, but still can't get 14nm Nodes, and this is also called "squeezing".
10nm is unwavering, it's amazing! Intel announced recently that 10nm will be applied to the Ice Lake architecture processor, 5G network chip Snow Ridge, and the first FOVEROS architecture chip Lakefile, in 3D forms of ICE Lake architecture processor, 5G network chip Snow Ridge.
This means that Intel has a wider layout on the 10nm process, expanding the intelral business sector, and the comprehensive application of the 10nm process will also change Intel's dilemma in recent years.
"Project Athena" will land on behalf of the future direction of the notebook
"Project Athena" is an Intel advocated innovation plan to help partners introduce new high-end laptops to the market, make full use of new generations such as 5G mobile communications, Ai artificial intelligence, so that new generation of notebooks is first-class performance, super Long-life time, instant security connection, fashion and beautiful design. This plan also represents the future direction of the notebook.
Intel revealed that Partners of the Project Athena project include Acer, ASUS, Dell, Google, HP, Group, Lenovo, Microsoft, Samsung, Huawei, Xiaomi and Sharp, etc., these partners will work with Intel to solve the project. Formulate and complete verification.
At the same time, Intel also announced that "Project Athena" equipment is expected to come out in the second half of 2019. At that time, we will see a laptop from "Project Athena".
XE discrete graphics card will have more news
Intel wants to do graphics cards for the first time, such as I740 and Larrabee before this, but both have no success.
Now, Intel will create a separate graphics card to make a schedule. There is not much news about the new graphics card. I only know that the graphics card brand is called XE (E is the upper corner), the plan is launched in 2020, covering consumption and enterprise, using a 10nm process And support light tracking technology.
↑ ↑ ↑ Foreign netizens made XE graphics rendering
However, from the "excavation", Intel is necessary to make an independent.
For example, the old RAJA KODURI for the original AMD Radeon Technologies Group (RTG) department is responsible for the entire XE alone display, in addition, there are many RTG sectors, the original RTG, almost moving the AMD graphics department, No wonder the old yellow club "Intel's graphics team is not entirely from AMD?"
AMD: The multi-winning chase of the red camp
Then talk about AMD. In 2019, it will be the 50th anniversary of AMD, so for AMD, 2019 is also a vital year.
Previously, the official once said that the top 7nm process and the industry-leading computation and graphic graphic design are closely combined based on the top 7nm process and industry-leading, in terms of calculation, game and visualization technology.
Launched the world's first 7nm game graphics card
On the third day of the New Year, AMD officially released the world's first 7nm game graphics card Radeon 7.
The Radeon 7 graphics card is based on the second generation "VEGA" architecture. Compared with Radeon RX VEGA 64, the Radeon 7 has a memory capacity of 2 times. The memory bandwidth has increased by 2.1 times, and the game performance has increased by 29%. Professional content creative software performance average improvement 36%.
And in the context of the RTX 2080, there is no significant performance disadvantage, but in terms of temperature and power consumption, 7nm does not show energy consumption ratio, full power consumption is about 100W, but the public version of RTX 2080 is about 100W, but If the price factor is taken into account, Radeon 7 is still a game graphics card that is currently AMD to excite players.
The third generation of Ruilong desktop processor is launched in the year
Throughout the "ZEN" architecture release, with 52% of the performance improvement of the number of performances per clock cycle (IPC), the first generation Rui Dance desktop processor returns to the mainstream ranks of the market, after which it is launched "Zen +" architecture, 12nm process The second generation of sharp dragon processor is equally insulting mission.
The third generation of Ruilong desktop processor is based on a new "ZEN 2" architecture, using a 7nm process, and will become the first processor that supports PCIe 4.0 specification. Dr. Su Zefeng in AMD CEO has shown the third-generation Ruilong desktop processor on CES, and this processor will also be launched in 2019.
Launched the second generation of sharp dragon mobile processor
After the "ZEN" architecture and the "VEGA" architecture have successful, AMD combines both, and the Ruilong mobile processor came.
On the previous CES 2019, AMD launched 6 second generation sharp dragon mobile processors. In addition to the routine update 4 low voltage processors, 2 35W standard mobile processors have been launched for the first time. Intel.
In terms of performance, according to the official data of AMD, Ryzen 7 3700U web page load speed is 14% faster than I5-8250, and the picture editing performance is 27% faster than I5-8250U.
OEM vendors from Acer, ASUS, Dell, HP, Huawei, Lenovo and Samsung will launch a notebook with AMD Second Generation River Mobile Processor in 2019.
Launched the first 7nm data center processor
In addition to the consumer market, the server-based server-based server side will also apply 7nm technology. Based on the "ZEN 2" architecture, the first 7nm data center processor "Rome" (Rome) will be sent in 2019. The goods, that is, the ROME dragon processor will skip 12nm and upgrade directly from 14 nm to 7nm.
In the scientific application using the simulated large biometric system NAMD, Su Zefeng demonstrated the gradual increase in performance of the Dragon Data Center processor performance, revealed the powerful practical application performance of the next generation AMD dragon processor, by using Based on the system of 龙, AMD is helping scientists advancing related research.
7nm Navi architecture or extension
Say your news, then talk about bad news. According to the graphics process, the 7nm VEGA architecture, the 7nm Vega architecture will be the same as the 7nm Navi architecture. It is not clear that there is an introduction to the middle, similar to the current Polaris Arctic Star architecture, there is also a saying Alternative VEGA, facing the high-end market.
The Navi architecture initially plans to launch in 2019, but according to the current latest news, the NAVI architecture will extend until October 2019, which is likely to have a big relationship with AMD this year's wafer distribution.
According to previous plans, including the 7nm process of the 7nm production line of the 7nm production line based on the second generation of "Zen 2" architecture, the third-generation Ruilong desktop processor and the just released Radeon 7 graphics card, the pressure of the 7nm production line does not be underestimated.
NVIDIA: Steady Blocking of Green Camp
For the case of intel, AMD two processors and graphics cards "two hands must be grabbed hard", NVIDIA is a lot of focuses.
In the past few months, NVIDIA has completed the layout of the Turing architecture RTX 20-Series graphics card, from the RTX 2080 Ti / 2080/2070/2060 of the desktop, to the mobile RTX 2080/2070/2060 and corresponding max- Q Version, 20 Series graphics cards are getting more and more improved.
Continue to improve the desktop graphics layout
For mainstream players, the price of 20 Series graphics card is too high, even the least the least cheapest RTX 2060 is about 3000 blocks, and does not say how light tracking and deep learning practical effect, single support these two items It is not necessary to spend more costless games.
In addition to the released RTX 2080 Ti / 2080/2070/2060, NVIDIA also launched a graphics card that cut off RT and Tensor core in the next few months to cater to the mainstream market below 2,000 yuan. The new graphics card is expected to adopt "16xx" naming mode, the prefix will return to GTX by RTX, I believe this is also a lot of players expect.
Mobile version of the graphics card
NVIDIA published a 20-Series mobile graphics card on CES 2019, including RTX 2080/2070/2060 and corresponding MAX-Q versions. According to the official introduction, the mobile version of the RTX 2060 graphics can provide better than the performance of the desktop version GTX 1070, and the performance of the mobile version of the RTX 2080 graphics has been significantly exceeded GTX 1080.
At present, laptop manufacturers carrying 20 Series graphics cards include Alienware, Dell, Shenzhou, HP, Lenovo savers, mechanics, mechanical revolution, MSI, Acer, ROG player, Ray, etc., over time, we will Will see more 20-strand notebooks launched by the manufacturers, while the main light MAX-Q version will be more.
Write in the last:
The above is Intel, AMD, NVIDIA, three core manufacturers in 2019, I have to do new actions, I believe you are also like me, I am looking forward to the 2019 PC market. If you have anything to say, welcome to leave a message to discuss.
