Core Temp adds support for Intel Rocket Lake, Alder Lake and Meteor Lake


Core Temp has been updated after about 10 months to support new processors from Intel and AMD.

The Core Temp tool is quite popular and allows us to know the temperature of the CPU in a fairly simple way. The latest version available is 1.17 and it brings support for different processors, even some Core families that have not been released yet.

Core Temp adds support for the recent Intel Core Rocket Lake processors, which is not surprising at all, but the support for future 12th gen Alder Lake and 14th gen Meteor Lake processors is surprising. The 13th Gen Intel Core Raptor Lake chips are not supported at this time.

On the AMD side, Core Temp adds support for Ryzen 'Cezanne' APU processors.

What is most striking about the update is the support of the Intel Core Meteor Lake, which is planned to reach the market in 2023. There are about two years for that, but Intel may already have early samples to send to its customers. partners for testing. It is also curious that Raptor Lake is left out, being the pre-Meteor Lake generation.
