Intel Core Series 2 Makes Determinism a Number — and Its Footnotes Make It a Thermal Design Problem
At Embedded World on March 9, Intel launched the Core processor Series 2 with P-cores and cited up to 4.4x lower maximum PCIe latency and up to 3.8x better deterministic performance against AMD's Ryzen 7 9700X. The disclaimers tie those figures to one processor at a fixed 65 W TDP — which makes sustained thermal design, not processor selection, the variable that decides whether a deployed box PC ever sees them.
