With its announcement back in January at the CES 2021 event and now with Intel’s innovatiON day dawning upon us, its time we talk about Alder Lake. Described as a hybrid chip, Alder Lake is the 12th Gen processor in the Intel CPU family. Set to be released during the final months of 2021, Intel Alder Lake will aim to respond to AMD’s recent emergence in the CPU scene which had Intel on its toes with their price to performance ratio.
