The next generation of Intel CPU, Nova Lake, could have as many as 52 cores, according to new leaks. Along with this massive core count total, the new processors will allegedly have up to 16 of its powerful P-Cores and feature a TDP of 150W, although the peak TDP is likely to be considerably higher.

These apparent Intel CPU architecture details suggest that the new chips will boast more than double the number of cores of its previous architecture, Arrow Lake. This increase greatly bolsters the chances of these upcoming processors finding a place on our best gaming CPU guide when they are released. Comparatively, the future AMD Zen 7 architecture is rumored to top out at 32 cores, though they're likely to all be full-fat cores, rather than being split between P-Cores and E-Cores.
