➀ TechInsights and SemiWiki revealed key details about Intel's 18A (1.8nm) and TSMC's N2 (2nm) process technologies at the International Electron Devices Meeting (IEDM).

➁ Intel 18A offers higher performance, while TSMC N2 may provide higher transistor density.

➂ TSMC N2 can reduce power consumption by 24% to 35% compared to the previous generation, while Intel 18A has the highest performance among 2nm process technologies.

➃ TSMC's N2 has a higher density of high-density logic unit transistors, with a density of 313 MTx/mm2, followed by Intel with 238 MTx/mm2 and Samsung with 231 Mtx/mm2.

➄ TSMC's N2 is expected to have an average yield rate of >80% for 256Mb SRAM arrays, with a peak yield rate of >90%.

➅ Intel 18A is scheduled to enter mass production in mid-2025, while TSMC's N2 is planned for late 2025.

➀ Preliminary benchmarks at PassMark show Intel's new Arrow Lake-based Core Ultra 9 275HX is 7% ahead of AMD's Ryzen 9 7945HX3D processor in CPU Mark.

➁ Despite a 400 MHz clock deficit, the 275HX is 34% faster than the i9-14900HX from last generation.

➂ The 275HX achieves a solid 9% lead in single-threaded performance over the Ryzen 9 7945HX3D.

➀ Intel's Arrow Lake 140T iGPU maintains an edge over AMD's 880M in gaming performance, despite being based on older architecture.

➁ AMD still has the upper hand in gaming drivers and software.

➂ Battery life and CPU performance are also examined, with Intel's laptop offering longer runtime.

➀ InMotion offers competitive pricing for VPS and shared hosting plans;

➁ However, performance is subpar and support is slow and unhelpful;

➂ Issues with SSL setup and hidden fees detract from the overall experience.

➀ The Intel Core Ultra 7 255H, based on the Arrow Lake architecture, demonstrates a 32% improvement over the 155H in PassMark's single-core benchmark.

➁ The updated Lion Cove P-cores and N3B process contribute to the performance boost.

➂ Despite efficiency concerns, the 255H shows a 15% improvement in CPU Mark compared to its predecessor.

➀ Liquid Web offers high-performance VPS hosting but at a premium price.

➁ The Managed VPS plans come with extensive features and no database size limits.

➂ Performance tests show Liquid Web surpasses other hosts in speed and reliability.
