Intel seems to be announcing a lot of products lately, but with them announcing the Intel Core X series, we knew the next announcement would likely be a list of what these chips will go in. During IFA 2019, a whole lineup of machines was announced that will hold the new 10th gen chips.
Some Standout Items
We got to see a lot of exciting tech during this event, one of the most exciting pieces was the Razer Blade stealth – a new gaming laptop that will include the 10th gen Ice Lake i7 processor. This is going to pack a crazy amount of power into a small package. This wasn’t the only release that impressed however, pretty much all the items with the new 10th-gen chips look extremely promising.
It wasn’t just Razer who brought devices to show off. Acer, Asus, and Dell are also partnered with Intel to include the brand-new 10th generation chips in their portable products. With Intel making the statement before IFA that their partners would be releasing machines that meet their target spec, it appears their ‘Project Athena’ program will be great when comparing performance laptops.
What was on display?
While this list will no doubt continue to expand through the coming months it is still an impressive variety of devices to look at. With devices from Dell, Lenovo, HP, and Microsoft, it shows that all the tech giants want to get their hands on the 10th gen chips for their laptops.
