The vPro is a package of technologies designed for business and enterprise markets. They provide easier remote management and more secure environment, things that are often crucial for professional work.

The website posted a list of SKUs that will be available with the upcoming Dell Precision 7770 and 7670 laptops, the next-generation mobile workstation systems:

• i5-12600HX (vPro): 12 cores 16 threads, up to 4.6GHz
• i7-12800HX: 16 cores, 24 threads, up to 4.8GHz
• i7-12850HX (vPro): 16 cores, 24 threads, up to 4.8GHz
• i9-12900HX: 16 cores, 24 threads, up to 5GHz
• i9-12950HX (vPro): 16 cores 24 threads, up to 5GHz

Some “HX” parts that were leaked before are not present on this list, such as the Core i5-12650HX, however this SKU might launch at a later time or is simply not available for those Dell Precision laptops specifically.

The Alder Lake-HX processors are the upcoming 16-core/24-thread mobile SKUs. They are based on desktop silicon with 8 Performance and 8 Efficient cores. Thus far, 12th Gen Core series for laptops were limited to 14 cores and 20 threads, because they are based on Alder Lake-P mobile silicon with up to 6 Performance cores only.

ITHome further reveled that those Dell systems will feature up to NVIDIA RTX A5500 or GeForce RTX 3080 Ti 16GB laptop GPUs. Those are the latest discrete graphics based on Ampere GA103 GPU.

Neither Dell nor Intel have confirmed the launch date of Alder Lake-HX series, but the rumors suggest that they might be unveiled around May 10th, when ASUS is hosting its product launch event.
