Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

CTOnews.com, November 15, YouTube channel HardwareUnboxed recently released a new video confirming from Intel representatives that Intel has no plans to devolve application optimization (APO) capabilities to Raptor Lake (13th generation core) and Alder Lake (12th generation core) processors.

Currently, the processors that support APO are limited to i7-14700K, i7-14700KF, i9-14900K and i9-14900KF. It is not clear whether i5 support can be added in the future.

One of the main features of Intel's 14th generation Intel Core processor (Raptor Lake Refresh) is to support Intel Application Optimization (APO).

APO is based on Thread Director technology, works with Windows 11 operating system, and is responsible for load distribution between different types of kernels.

APO disables individual E cores when they are not needed, or enables some of them at high clock speeds for workloads that require more threads. Intel APO is integrated into the motherboard software to automatically detect programs and their requirements, and allocate CPU resources in real time to achieve the best application performance.

Currently, only two games, Rainbow 6: siege and Metro: leave, support APO. CTOnews.com previously reported that Reddit user "LightMoisture" found that when APO was enabled, the "Rainbow 6: siege" FPS increased by 31% from 659 to 867, while the "Metro: leaving" FPS increased from 273 to 339, an increase of 24%.

In the conversation with HardwareUnboxed, Intel representatives did not directly answer questions about whether there were technical reasons that prevented Raptor Lake (Generation 13 Core) and Alder Lake (Generation 12) processors from implementing APO functionality.
