Lei Feng network (public number: Lei Feng network) note: If you are a person very concerned about the processor, then the dynamic of this week you will be missed. This week, ARM announced for 2020 mobile CPU and GPU design, Intel announced the tenth generation Core Duo chip, AMD updated Ryzen product line.
Although Nvidia expand in the field of computing more complex game graphics to the outside, but the three companies (Lei Feng network by: ARM, Intel, AMD) is still the leader decide the future direction of processors. In addition, the company also for the future of Windows laptops, Mac Pro workstations, and next-generation consoles look, feel and function parameters have been set.
No matter how excellent the other parameters, all the computers processor is still the "heart" and now it is also a good time to understand its development direction. In the processor, ARM, Intel, ADM is representative, although they have recently released a new dynamic, but they have different views on the future of computing.
ARM
Architect era of smart phones ARM prepared for the chip company a set of instructions and reference core design, these companies Qualcomm, Apple, Samsung, Huawei (recently not use ARM), they are authorized and developed to support iPhone, Galaxys and Pixels products . ARM's latest Cortex-A77 CPU and Mali-G77 GPU is very simple, mainly focused on the performance and efficiency without adding too many professional features or characteristics.

ARM if it wants to achieve long-term goals - other than its IP technology will be extended to the mobile space, then it needs to become more powerful. Now most every phone and tablet PCs running on ARM processors. Intel x86 repeatedly tried to chip (ARM chips competitive set of instructions) inserted into the mobile device is connected, but all ended in failure. Now, ARM has occupied in the field of mobile devices monopoly, it now wants to do is to get a laptop, or even desktop computers equipped with ARM processors.
目前，高通拥有骁龙 8cx 芯片，这是它首个专为 Windows 电脑设计的芯片，并且 ARM 上的 Windows 也已经可以买到了。与此同时，苹果据称也在研发类似部件，希望在 2020 年的时候能够取代目前英特尔应用在 Mac 上的 CPU。不止一个人认为 ARM 专注于在 2020 年生产更强大的部件和苹果开发面向 Mac 的系列变体是一种协同融合。
到明年，我们很可能会看到 ARM 及其合作伙伴与桌面级 x86 处理器在性能上的激烈竞争。反正，无论竞争情况如何，基于 ARM 的可折叠电脑和笔记本电脑的普及似乎是不可避免的。
英特尔
谈到 CPU，就得说说英特尔这个公司。它最近用很多时间在谈论 CPU 相关的东西，但实际上，它在提高性能、效率和生产规模改进方面做得非常糟糕。近日，它刚刚发布了 Intel 10 nm Ice Lake 处理器，并承诺了下一个 10nm 部件，但感觉我们会等上一辈子。
在本周台北的 Computex 上，英特尔推进了雅典娜项目的工作，该项目旨在为配备英特尔最新一代处理器的笔记本电脑设定电池续航时间、连通性、响应能力和厚度的基准预期。抛开核心数量和时钟速度不提，英特尔希望达到这样一个程度——消费者看到设备上贴有“Intel Inside” 贴纸就能够感到安心，这意味着英特尔想要在电脑领域表现得与 ARM 在现代移动设备领域一样好。

首个第十代英特尔酷睿处理器将先应用于轻薄笔记本电脑和平板电脑。优先考虑便携式计算机成为了英特尔的习惯，英特尔将大部分设计和工程资源投入到为便携式电脑制作最好的芯片不是没有理由的。因此，在 Computex 上，它的标题（笔记本电脑的创新源于人类的理解）说的是增加更多功能（而不是性能），比如 AI 驱动的适应性、内置的 Wi-Fi 6 和 Thunderbolt 3 连接，以及用于专业级内容创建和 4K HDR 的改进图形。
英特尔还从其原型实验室推出了双屏的 Twin River、fabric-wrapped 笔记本电脑和 Honeycomb Glacier 便携式游戏电脑。因为 Honeycomb Glacier 折叠起来的时候会变得很小，所以从名义上来说它也是笔记本电脑。探索不同的产品形式是英特尔的另一个习惯，这给它的硬件合作伙伴（戴尔、华硕等）提供了一个推动和暗示去扩宽了它们的视野。
多年来，英特尔一直处于这样一个境地：虽然大多数消费者对现有的、功能强大的 PC 感到满意，但英特尔最新推出的芯片实际上却未能带来任何巨大的性能飞跃。因此，英特尔的解决方案是，建立设计和设备的生态系统，同时通过雅典娜等项目推动统一的质量标准。
AMD
可以说，AMD 正在跟进的轨道是最传统的轨道。新的 Ryzen 3000 系列采用了 AMD 的第一个消费级 12 核处理器，将制造工艺缩减到 7nm，并在价格上低于英特尔同类产品。但是，除了 7nm 这个数字，Ryzen 3000 真不是什么闪光的东西。AMD 专注于基本面，认为只要生产出更好的处理器，就能比以前更好地销售更多处理器。

AMD 的努力似乎正在取得成效，因为它的个人电脑市场份额数字正在稳定上升，不仅如此，AMD 还成功签订了合同，为 PlayStation 5 提供处理器。下一代 Xbox 也有可能是 AMD 部件的候选产品，有传言称，微软正考虑在今年晚些时候推出的 Surface 笔记本电脑上使用 AMD Picasso 芯片。
在英特尔努力克服安全缺陷和性能停滞不前之际，AMD 的大量核心公式、Radeon 部门的强大图形处理能力，以及诱人的价格让它在消费者和硬件合作伙伴中广受欢迎。
未来愿景
ARM, Intel and AMD in one week after another new release, which is rare. However, they should not publish a coincidence of time has been misrepresented as they provide new products with consistency. All three companies will be laptops as the key to future of mobile computing, but they take a different approach.

ARM is designed from the outset focus on lightness and efficiency, we are now committed to handle heavier workloads. One of its vision for the future is to take advantage of smart phones, will expand their size and power to the bigger, the stronger machine. On the other hand, Intel's processor to focus on optimizing the surrounding environment. On "How to sell more chips," this issue, Intel's idea is to have an overall product positioning, which is Apple's practice on the Mac and Macbook is consistent. In addition, AMD is focused on performance per dollar and performance per watt efficiency.
In the long run, the ability to track and observe the balance between the ARM and x86 processors is a very interesting thing. Just this week, a harbinger, a herald of better in the near future, faster, more efficient laptops and mobile devices will come out.
