Intel 14th Gen Core Lineup Confirmed to be Meteor Lake CPU Range

The Meteor Lake codename has been linked to the fourteenth generation of Intel's Core lineup for a while, following several significant leaks in 2022 and 2023. According to newly unearthed internal documentation and benchmark data, Intel has confirmed that the Meteor Lake family of CPUs will form its upcoming 14th Gen Core lineup - with laptop variations expected to arrive mid-2023 and heavily speculated desktop units in the fourth quarter, although a middle of the year refresh of Raptor Lake could push the entire Meteor Lake range's release window into 2024.

Meteor Lake is anticipated to be Intel's debuting of a "disaggregated" design - the most advanced laptop CPU variant features a top-of-the-line 6P+8E core configuration. Intel is solely responsible for fabrication of an IOE (I/O) tile (the company's own term for a chiplet) with PCIe 5.0 plus Thunderbolt 4, as well as an SoC tile. The GPU part of the design is rumored to be based on their own Arc Alchemist architecture, and TSMC has been contracted to manufacture this graphics tile - not a big surprise since Intel has also placed substantial manufacturing orders for discrete Arc cards with the Taiwanese foundry.

Gigabyte Will Have at Least Four GeForce RTX 4070 SKUs

Based on a leak courtesy of @momomo_us on Twitter, we now know that Gigabyte will be launching at least four different NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 based SKUs next week. Although the leaker only posted a single image of all four cards seen from the edge, it still gives us an idea of what to expect. The leaker also confirmed a rumour, that there will be two different types of GeForce RTX 4070 cards, namely those with a single 8-pin power connector and those with the 16-pin 12VHPWR PCIe 5.0 connector.

Gigabyte's four SKUs start with the Eagle and Windforce as the more budget friendly options, with the Eagle being the one we'd expect that will sell for the rumoured US$599.99 MSRP. Both of these cards obviously have the 8-pin power connector and seemingly a more basic heatsink compared to the other two cards. The higher-end models include the Gaming and Aero cards, both with 16-pin power connectors and a beefier heatsink with more heatpipes. It's unclear if we'll see a higher-end Aorus branded SKU or not at this point in time, but Gigabyte might forgo it to try to avoid making an overly expensive card that won't sell, considering that the 4070 is still largely an upper mid-range card.

SSD Market Predicted to Reach $67 Billion by 2028, Short Term Numbers Less Encouraging

Analyst firm Yole Group has predicted that SSD sales revenues will grow to $67 billion in the year 2028, generated by 472 million unit sales - indicating a very healthy outlook in the long term. However, their predictions for market performance in 2023 appear to be less cheerful for manufacturers of NAND flash memory. The SSD market dynamic was positive in 2021 and the starting months of 2022, but demand has dropped sharply since then due to a number of factors including global inflation, geopolitical tensions, and inventory digestion at electronics manufacturers. Sales revenues in 2022 totaled $29 billion (352 million units), down from $34 billion (400 million units) in 2021 - demonstrating a 14% year-to-year decline.

The continued weakening of global demand in 2023 will have an effect on SSD sales revenues, and the Yole Group has foreseen troublesome outcomes for manufacturers. The average selling price of NAND memory and solid-state drive units has been on the decline in the recent quarters, caused by sluggish demand and a surplus of stock. Despite the grim outlook in the short term, the research body is predicting a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of about 15% between 2022 and 2028 for the overall size of the SSD market.
