From simple recognition tasks to thoughtful intelligent assistants, AI PCs are undergoing a new evolution. Behind this transformation is Intel® Core™ Ultra Processor (3rd Generation) with its newly upgraded NPU5. Get ready to witness how your PC transforms from a mere tool into an expert-level intelligent assistant!
Q
How powerful is the AI computing capability of this generation platform?
Significantly improved,increased by 50%!
A
The new generation Core Ultra’s NPU, CPU, and GPU work together, pushing the total platform computing power to180 TOPS, which is a50% increase1 compared to the previous generation, easily handling various complex models.
The NPU5 equipped in this generation of Core Ultra is specifically optimized for AI tasks, with computing power per unit area (TOPS/mm²)increased by over 40%2. Its energy efficiency is higher, processing AI tasks quickly and with lower power consumption. Moreover, this generation of NPU is tailored for generative AI, supporting native FP8 data types, further enhancing NPU computing power.
Q
What benefits will my AI PC gain?
Your AI will achieve aleap in functionality!
A
As AI development enters the “agent era,” AI PCs equipped with the 3rd generation Core Ultra will no longer just help you generate content; they will become an expert-level assistant that understands you deeply,an “intelligent agent” that plans, thinks, and executes tasks, providing a one-stop solution to liberate your mind completely.
Advancement in agent capabilities: With the context size increasing from 4K to 128K tokens (over 15 times growth), the AI agent model’s capability has improved from 20% of Llama 2 7B to 76% of Phi 4 Reasoning Pro 14B, nearing human expert level (78%)3.
Q
With such powerful computing power and AI, what kind of experience can I expect?
The new Core Ultra not only runs large models but does sofaster, more reliably, and more thoughtfully!
A
AI tasks run directly on your PC, ensuring data privacy; you can use AI offline without worrying about internet access; lower latency means faster responses, helping you complete tasks in the blink of an eye. Furthermore, Intel continues to collaborate with ISVs to launchmore useful and user-friendly AI assistants.
In the era of full-scale AI agents, the 3rd generation NPU of Core Ultra will undoubtedly accelerate the integration of agents into daily life. It is not just a hardware upgrade; it will enhance work efficiency, enrich entertainment experiences, and support personal growth, truly becoming an indispensable intelligent assistant in daily life.
