The web seems full of > helpful information, but not quite helpful enough for me.:-( Intel's website mentions this 12th Gen CPU was *formerly* known as Alder Lake, was released in Q1 2022, but does not make it clear what it is now named as: https://www.intel.co.uk/content/www/uk/en/products/sku/132228/intel-core-i712700h-processor-24m-cache-up-to-4-70-ghz/specifications.html So, I'd be inclined to take their word for it. This Wikipedia lists the processor as a mobile Alder Lake: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alder_Lake#Alder_Lake-H The Tiger Lake processors are 11th Gen and their model numbering start with 11***. This page also confirms your family and model number as per cpuinfo use the Golden Cove (P-cores) microarchitecture: https://en.wikichip.org/wiki/intel/microarchitectures/alder_lake#CPUID sys-apps/dmidecode will provide additional information to determine the specifics of what the MoBo firmware reports. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Re: [gentoo-user] I915 mobile firmware
Install lshw - might give more info. Boot off of an install, ubuntu, sysrescue or other live USB and investigate dmesg.

Some sources say that the processor is a mobile complement to Alder Lake 11th gen, but I also see it as just Tiger Lake. The web seems full of helpful information, but not quite helpful enough for me.:-(
