Intel Launches Panther Lake With XeSS Frame Generation

Intel has launched its first Panther Lake CPUs, the Core Ultra Series 3, and updated its XeSS 3 upscaler to add multi-frame (frame generation) support, reviewers report after testing on the Asus Zenbook Duo. XeSS multi-frame gen can multiply perceived frame rates (2x–4x), enabling near-60–90 fps on thin laptops, but introduces latency and visible artifacts, forcing trade-offs for players.
