June 2, 2026 6:07 AM

Intel Corporation (NASDAQ: INTC) announced new artificial intelligence infrastructure solutions and processors at Computex 2026 in Taipei, Taiwan. The company introduced rackscale AI infrastructure, new processors, and industry partnerships designed to address various AI computing needs from chip to systems level.

The company unveiled rackscale AI infrastructure built on Intel Xeon processors and SambaNova SN-50 Reconfigurable Dataflow Units for inference and agentic workloads. Intel partnered with SambaNova and Foxconn to develop production-ready racks that combine Intel Xeon processors with SambaNova RDUs for data center deployments. Foxconn will provide system integration capabilities and plans to manufacture a CPU-dense variant for workloads requiring cost-optimized inference and data processing.

Vector Core Compute, formed by Vista Equity Partners and Cambium Capital, demonstrated fully disaggregated inference running on Intel Xeon 6 processors, SambaNova SN40 RDUs, and NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs from a Los Angeles data center. Together.ai became the first commercial customer using Vector Core Compute's cloud services.

Intel announced the availability of Xeon 6+ processors, built on Intel 18A manufacturing process technology. The processors are designed for high-density, scale-out workloads and can be configured for AI rackscale infrastructure. A single liquid-cooled rack can deliver 36,864 cores using 32U of compute space at approximately 100-kilowatt rack power compute.

The company reported that its Core Ultra Series 3 processors now power more than 325 consumer and commercial PC designs. Intel also launched new Intel Arc G-series processors for handheld gaming devices, available starting this month. Over 130 customers have selected Series 3 processors for edge AI and robotics applications.

Intel announced strategic partnerships with Foxconn, Siemens, Hitachi, Echo Neurotechnologies, and Greenstone Biosciences to develop industry-specific solutions based on Intel processors and purpose-built silicon for various sectors including manufacturing, healthcare, and biotechnology.
