内容总结：

在今年的国际消费电子展（CES）上，英特尔正式发布了其首款基于18A（约2纳米以下）制程工艺的处理器系列。新一代酷睿Ultra 3系列芯片（代号“Panther Lake”）主要面向笔记本电脑和迷你PC，在性能、能效与人工智能支持方面实现显著突破。

据英特尔主题演讲披露，该系列芯片可提供高达77%的游戏性能提升与60%的多线程性能提升，并有望实现最长27小时的电池续航，直接对标苹果M系列及高通等厂商的ARM芯片。在人工智能算力方面，顶配型号的NPU与GPU合计可提供180 TOPS算力，为本地化AI应用提供更强支持。

本代集成显卡升级为英特尔锐炫B390，其缓存容量翻倍、核心数量增加50%，不仅助力游戏性能跃升，也为AI开发者带来相比上代最高53%的性能提升。

值得关注的是，英特尔宣布将基于Panther Lake平台全面进军手持游戏PC市场，与宏碁、微星及微软等合作伙伴共同推出新品，意图改变目前该领域由AMD主导的竞争格局。

首批搭载酷睿Ultra 3系列芯片的设备将于1月6日开启预售，1月27日正式上市。此次发布标志着英特尔在提升能效表现、强化游戏生态及拓展新兴硬件形态等方面展开了系统性进击。

每年CES展会上，英特尔和AMD都会发布最新处理器。今年英特尔首次推出了基于18A制程工艺的芯片产品线——"18A"代表18埃米，即2纳米以下级别。用通俗的话说，这意味着芯片能在微小面积内集成大量技术元件，从而带来显著的性能提升。

这款被业界昵称为"黑豹湖"的全新英特尔酷睿Ultra 3系列芯片主要面向笔记本电脑和迷你PC。但这绝不意味着它们的性能表现会打折扣。在主题演讲中，英特尔承诺可实现"游戏性能提升77%"，对于需要处理多任务工作的用户，则能带来"多线程性能提升60%"。更令人瞩目的是，官方宣称新款芯片将支持"长达27小时的续航能力"，直接对标苹果M系列芯片和高通等厂商的ARM芯片。续航问题长期困扰着英特尔和AMD，因此我十分期待能亲手测试搭载黑豹湖处理器的设备。

人工智能性能方面也有重大突破。英特尔表示顶级酷睿Ultra 3型号的NPU算力达50TOPS，结合GPU后整体算力可达180TOPS。简单来说，这为开发者提供了更快的本地AI运算能力——既无需依赖云端服务，又能享受本地AI模型的高速响应与数据隐私保护。

说到GPU，这代集成显卡已升级为英特尔锐炫B390，不仅缓存容量翻倍，核心数量也增加50%。前文提到的77%游戏性能提升正源于此。对AI开发者而言，相比第二代酷睿Ultra，其性能提升达53%；若与初代产品对比，性能更是翻倍增长。

性能更强的电脑本是CES的常规亮点，但英特尔这次还准备了"特别惊喜"：该公司正全力进军AMD主导的掌上游戏PC领域。

迄今为止，大多数掌上游戏PC都采用AMD芯片，而选用英特尔芯片的设备常因性能优化不足或存在漏洞在评测中备受诟病。无论是Steam Deck还是Xbox掌机都搭载AMD芯片，但英特尔宣称将改变这一格局。

在详细介绍新款集成显卡及其帧生成、光线追踪等功能后，英特尔宣布"将基于黑豹湖平台打造完整的掌上游戏生态系统"。这意味着重大战略布局即将展开——毕竟黑豹湖平台的生命周期不会太长。虽然未透露更多细节，但演示文稿中已列出将采用英特尔芯片的合作伙伴名单，包括宏碁、微星，值得注意的是微软也位列其中。看来我们很快会见到新款Xbox掌机了。

英特尔今年的战略布局大致如此：新芯片在体积缩小、性能增强、能效提升的同时，公司更明智地计划用其弥补自身短板，特别是在游戏性能和电池续航方面。这种策略非常合理——过去十年间，随着苹果等知名厂商陆续弃用英特尔芯片，这家老牌巨头确实承受着巨大压力。

据英特尔透露，首批搭载酷睿Ultra 3系列的设备将于1月6日开启预售，1月27日正式上市销售。

Every year at CES, Intel and AMD announce their newest processors. This year, Intel debuted its first line of chips made with its 18a process, which stands for 18 angstroms, or under 2nm. To make that a little less nerdy, that means these chips can fit a lot of tech into a small area, which means big gains in performance.
Colloquially called Panther Lake, the new Intel Core Ultra Series 3 chips are focused on laptops and mini-PCs. But that doesn't mean they don't put out impressive numbers. During its keynote, Intel promised "77% faster gaming performance," and for everyone actually using their PCs to do work, "60% better multithread performance." Impressively, it also said its new chips would also enable "up to 27 hours of battery life," rivaling Apple's M-series chips and other ARM chips from manufacturers like Qualcomm. Battery life has been a sore spot for both Intel and AMD for a while, and I'm excited to get my hands on machines that use Panther Lake processors.
And then there's the AI. Intel says its top Intel Core Ultra Series 3 models have 50 NPU TOPs and 180 TOPS in total when you combine the NPU and GPU numbers. To translate, that basically means faster AI performance for developers who don't want to bother with the cloud, and would prefer the speed and privacy of a locally downloaded AI model.
Speaking of that GPU, Intel's upgraded its integrated graphics this generation to the Intel Arc B390, which has twice the cache of its prior GPU and 50% more cores. I already mentioned that 77% increase in gaming performance, but AI developers will also see a 53% increase in performance over Intel Core Ultra Series 2, and a two times performance increase over Intel Core Ultra Series 1.
So, better computers. That's pretty par for the course for CES, but there is a "one more thing" here. Intel is coming for AMD's dominance in handheld gaming PCs.

Until now, most handheld gaming PCs have used AMD chips, with those that have opted for Intel getting hit in reviews for buggy or poorly optimized performance. The Steam Deck uses an AMD chip, and so does the Xbox handheld. Intel says it's going to change that.
After announcing the new integrated GPU and walking through features like frame generation and ray tracing, the company said it "will be launching an entire handheld gaming platform with Panther Lake."
That means big moves, and soon—Panther Lake won't last long before getting replaced. The company didn't say much more, but it did show a slide with partners set to use Intel chips in their handhelds, including Acer, MSI, and hey, Microsoft. I guess we'll see another Xbox handheld model soon.
And that's about it for Intel this year. The new chips are smaller, stronger, and more efficient, but smartly, the company is also planning to use them to shore up its weaknesses, specifically in gaming and battery life. That makes sense. With developers like Apple having famously ditched Intel throughout the decade, the company has been on the back foot.
According to Intel, the earliest machines powered by Intel Core Ultra Series 3 will start accepting pre-orders on January 6, with availability beginning on January 27.
