The Race to 2nm
TSMC and Intel are in a fierce race to dominate the 2nm node. This next generation of lithography promises 45% better power efficiency, which means cooler laptops with vastly longer battery life.
AI Everywhere
The "NPU" (Neural Processing Unit) is becoming a standard part of every CPU. Whether it's Intel's Core Ultra or AMD's Ryzen AI, your next computer will have dedicated hardware to run local AI models, speeding up tasks like background blur, noise cancellation, and even local LLMs.
ARM dominance?
With Qualcomm's X Elite and Apple's continued dominance with M-series chips, the ARM architecture is proving it's not just for phones anymore. Windows on ARM is finally becoming a viable alternative to x86.
