Intel’s next-generation Core Ultra processors codenamed Panther Lake, will most likely hit the market in the first quarter of 2026.
Videocardz has published an Intel PPT slide revealing that the Panther Lake processor, built on the Intel 18A process, will officially launch in Q1 2026. Some may wonder why Intel previously promoted Panther Lake as “launching in 2025,” yet the PPT slide intentionally states the following year instead.
The reason is actually quite simple. Panther Lake will begin its "EEP" (Early Enablement Program) this year, and some major manufacturers will also receive early supplies to release corresponding AIPC products. However,...

Modders are addressing the primary issue of FSR 4, which is its limited compatibility with games.
In conjunction with their Radeon RX 9070 GPU series, AMD introduced the FSR 4 AI upscaling technology. Initially, this upscaler was compatible with “30+” games, and AMD anticipates that by year-end, over 75 games will be compatible. In simple terms, this is insufficient to rival Nvidia's DLSS, an upscaler featured in most contemporary PC releases. Fortunately, OptiScaler comes to the rescue.
OptiScaler (found on Github here) is a utility that enables PC gamers to swap out one upscaler...
