Intel is reportedly preparing a direct competitor to AMD’s Ryzen X3D processors for the laptop market. According to leaker Jaykihn, the upcoming mobile lineup based on the Razor Lake architecture will include SKUs equipped with bLLC (Big Last Level Cache) technology.

The bLLC technology was previously expected to debut on consumer desktops with the Nova Lake generation, where single compute tiles could be linked to up to 144MB of additional cache. The latest information indicates that Intel intends to expand this strategy into the mobile segment rather than limiting it to just one flagship mode.

Razor Lake is expected to follow Nova Lake, although Intel has not confirmed its product branding yet. If Intel continues its current naming sequence, these processors would presumably become part of the Core Ultra 500 series. Additionally, a separate large-APU platform called Razor Lake-AX is reportedly in development, utilizing Nova Lake’s Coyote Cove and Arctic Wolf CPU architectures.

This move positions Intel to offer cache-focused gaming processors on notebooks, directly challenging AMD's dominance in the high-performance laptop market with its 3D V-Cache technology. However, these details remain unconfirmed by Intel officially and should be treated as leaks until verified.
