This is a bit of word salad from Intel's marketing, with a catch buried inside the messaging. > up to 120 total platform TOPS (tera operations per second) across central processing unit (CPU), graphic processing unit (GPU) and neural processing unit (NPU) to deliver the most compatible and performant AI experiences across models and engines. Notice they say "most compatible and performant AI across models and engines", this means you don't really get to add all the TOPS up and run them as a unified workload. That sum of 120 is marketing speak, without doubt the CPU will hit ~30w alone just running the 8 cores at full speed, and leave little power for its GPU and NPU. Even with their 50% (claimed) efficiency gain. They already do this today with their existing laptop chips, so I highly doubt they have changed. Instead, you get different power targets, TOPS and efficiency depending on the workload. It's the same with Apple, we don't actually know how much wattage the NPU used during their claimed 38 TOPS. Package power is about all we got until the chip comes out. It's not like Apple and Intel are putting 2w GPUs and 2w NPUs on a 37w package (at least not anymore). They likely utilize 30-50% of the available power. This is how I read it anyway, I'd love someone else to weigh in and tell me if its different from previous press releases.
