Intel Nova Lake-HX and Nova Lake-H die shots are leaked, and these chips are half Intel, half TSMC 👀 So the chip is not one single piece. It's 6 small tiles joined together on one package. The main CPU tile, where all the cores sit, is made by TSMC on 2nm (N2P). The rest is Intel's own: - Hub tile (72mm²) with 4 LPE cores, Intel 18A-P - I/O tile (58mm²), Intel 18A-P - GPU tile with 4 Xe cores (26mm²), Intel 3 Nova Lake-HX - 8P + 16E + 4 LPE cores - CPU tile is 104mm², the biggest one - Whole package is 12x30mm (360mm²) There's also a 12 Xe GPU version, where one big GPU tile takes the place of the small GPU tile + dummy tile Nova Lake-H - 4P + 8E + 4 LPE cores - CPU tile is 55mm² - Package is 12x23mm (276mm²) GPU, hub and I/O tiles same as HX Intel is designing the chip but its most important part is coming from TSMC.

Finally Microsoft is fixing the basics 👏 Microsoft announced a big Windows 11 update that makes Windows up to 20% faster to run. The speed boost shows up everywhere, from boot to Start, File Explorer and Search. On 8GB RAM laptops Windows can now keep up to 2GB more of your open apps in memory instead of pushing them to slower storage, so jumping between apps and tabs should feel smoother, and Widgets now load only when you open them, freeing 200MB+ of RAM. You can also finally choose where the taskbar sits on your screen, plus there's a new Photos app and better phone to PC connection.

BOE's new 8.6-gen OLED line in Chengdu (B16) still has cracking issues, even after 6 months, and that's slowing its bid to become the 3rd iPad OLED panel supplier after Samsung and LG. 👀 Cracks don't happen often, but even 2–3 broken glass sheets out of 1,000 is a big problem. When a sheet breaks inside the machine, production stops for half a day to a full day. BOE started making test panels for Apple's iPads in September, and Apple hasn't approved them yet. Samsung and LG are already supplying OLED panels for Apple's iPads, starting with the M4 iPad Pro #iPad #OLED #BOE

Microsoft is building its own AI chips so it relies less on Nvidia 👀 The new chip is called Maia 300 and goes into Microsoft's data centers from 2027 ⚡ Up to 7x faster at running AI than the previous chip (Maia 200), when 96 chips work together in one rack 🧠 288GB of super-fast HBM4 memory (8 stacks) moving data at 18 TB/s 💪 Raw power: 13.8 petaOPS at FP4, 6.9 petaOPS at FP8 🏭 Made by TSMC on N2P (2nm-class), split into chiplets: 1 main compute die, 2 I/O dies, 4 memory dies 🔌 950W per chip 🔗 Chips talk to each other at 3.2 TB/s, and up to ~12,000 Maia chips can be linked as one cluster 🔋 Microsoft says it gets about 40% more AI work per unit of electricity than top GPU systems – The older Maia 200 chip already powers Copilot today – Microsoft plans to make Maia its main chip for running AI across its products from 2027 #Microsoft #Maia #AIChips
