Intel says Alder Lake shipments have exceeded 35 million, and denies Meteor Lake is delayed to 2024

Intel just had a tough quarter. Revenue fell 22% due to the decline in PC purchases. If you compare the performance of the same period last year, Intel’s profit in the second quarter of 2022 fell by 109%, a decrease of about $5 billion. In worse news, TrendForce said the release of Meteor Lake was delayed until the end of 2023, and Intel canceled most of its 3nm orders at TSMC in 2023, keeping only a small number of orders for engineering verification, which means that the actual release time may be delayed until 2024.

In response to a series of rumors in the market, Intel spokesman Thomas Hannaford contacted The Verge for clarification, saying that this news is not true, and Meteor Lake will be released and shipped in 2023 for consumers to buy. Intel said Alder Lake has shipped more than 35 million units to date. At least on the surface, after Intel launched Alder Lake, it stopped the downward trend of the consumer market and was in a state evenly matched with AMD. Intel will launch Raptor Lake later this year to take on the challenge of rivals’ new Zen 4-architecture processors.

With more than a year to go before the release of Meteor Lake, Intel still has room to adjust, but according to the current trend, the situation is not optimistic. Meteor Lake is very important for Intel, it is the first processor to use the Intel 4 process, the first client processor to use extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUV), and the first to use a modular design. It can be stacked with modules of different process nodes.
