Intel's 200V series processors, revealed recently, include a powerful neural processing unit (NPU) that supports up to 48 TOPS (tera operations per second) for locally processed AI models and tools. AMD's Ryzen AI 300 series chips, revealed earlier this summer, will also receive Copilot+ features in November. These chips can reach up to 50 TOPS for AI performance and have 16 percent faster overall performance than their predecessors. The first Copilot+ PCs, powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X Elite chip, arrived in June.
Key takeaways:
- Microsoft has confirmed that Intel’s new 200V processors and AMD’s Ryzen AI 300 series chips will add Copilot+ AI capabilities starting in November.
- Copilot+ PCs include features like Live Captions, Cocreator in Paint, Windows Studio Effects image editing, and AI tools in Photos, with a particular interest to gamers being Auto Super Resolution.
- Intel’s 200V series processors, revealed recently, include a powerful neural processing unit (NPU) that supports up to 48 TOPS (tera operations per second) for locally processed AI models and tools, and are described as “the most efficient x86 processor ever”.
- AMD’s Ryzen AI 300 series chips, revealed earlier this summer, will also receive Copilot+ features in November, with the NPUs in AMD’s chips able to reach up to 50 TOPS for AI performance.
