Intel Bets on 18A Manufacturing to Reclaim PC Market With Panther Lake

2025/10/10 23:09

Intel, with hopes to reclaim the PC market share it lost to longtime rival AMD, has unveiled Panther Lake, its next-generation laptop processor and the first chip built on the company’s advanced 18A manufacturing process.

Per Reuters, Intel says the new chip delivers up to 50% better performance than its predecessor, Lunar Lake. Designed for high-end, AI-capable laptops, Panther Lake brings graphics and central processors onto a single circuit with a ‘system-on-chip’ design. And its rollout will be a test of Intel’s ability to scale its 18A manufacturing process.

The 18A process debuts a new transistor architecture and a more efficient power delivery system—a costly upgrade that Intel believes will help it regain its manufacturing advantage.

As production of the processor will begin ramping up this year, users can expect it to be broadly available from January 2026.
