A leaked roadmap of Dell's laptop plans shows the system builder is planning on supporting five new CPU architectures in new Dell machines over just three years, with the current Raptor Lake and Meteor Lake models being given a serious overhaul., in the form of a 300-page document that goes into great depth about Dell's plans for its XPS series of laptops, powered by Qualcomm'sprocessors.
Still with me? Good. Other snippets tucked away in that one chart are the expectation that Nvidia's next generation of mobile GPUs will appear in 2025 and that Intel's eventual successor to Panther Lake, called Nova Lake, is expected to make an appearance in 2027. The one caveat to all this, however, is that the leaked document is from August last year, almost 12 months old now, and so the roadmap could well have changed in the intervening time. The doc mentions an Nvidia laptop GPU refresh that clearly isn't going to happen, so not all can be taken as gospel.
