A | The USS Carney, a U.S. Navy guided-missile destroyer in the northern Red Sea, on Thursday shot down multiple missiles and drones launched by Iranian-backed Houthis in Yemen that the Pentagon said were potentially headed toward targets in Israel.It is the first time in recent memory that a U.S. Navy ship in the Middle East has engaged missiles and drones that were not directly aimed at the vessel.It's also the first U.S. military action taken to defend Israel in the current crisis and with the U.S. and other countries trying to contain the conflict between Israel and Hamas, the possibility that an Iranian-backed proxy group fired missiles and drones at Israel is sure to increase growing regional tensions.The ship was in the northern Red Sea on Thursday evening local time when it intercepted three land attack cruise missiles and several drones, Pentagon spokesman Brig. Gen. Pat Ryder said at a press briefing. U.S. officials told ABC News that the Carney had brought down eight drones launched by the Houthis.The preliminary U.S. assessment was that the USS Carney was not the target of any of the Houthi missiles or drones, according to multiple U.S. officials."We cannot say for certain what these missiles and drones were targeting but they were launched from Yemen heading north along the Red Sea potentially to targets in Israel," said Ryder who added that information about the engagements was still being processed.It’s unclear from where the Houthi militia's missiles were fired but they were headed in a northerly direction, an official said.The Houthis are an Iranian-backed Shiite movement that has seized control over much of northern Yemen and has been at war with recent years while Yemen has been at war with a Saudi-led coalition since 2015.As part of that conflict, the Houthis have launched missiles and drones deep into Saudi Arabia, but it appears that the missiles intercepted on Thursday were not aimed at targets inside Saudi Arabia.Last week, Houthi leader Abdel-Malek al-Houthi was quoted as saying that if the U.S. directly intervened in the Gaza conflict his group would respond by firing drones and missiles, and take other military options."There are red lines when it comes to Gaza," he said.Thursday's incident occurred during the early evening hours (local time) when the missiles and drones were detected moving northward above the waters of the Red Sea.The missiles fired by the Houthis were engaged by SM2 missiles carried aboard the USS Carney, a U.S. official told ABC News. No information was released about what weapons platform aboard the Carney brought down the 8 drones.Brig. Gen. Ryder told reporters that the intercepts had taken place over water and not land. No sailors aboard the ship were harmed according to a U.S. official.The United States has boosted its military presence in the region since the start of the Israel-Hamas war nearly two weeks ago.The USS Carney is part of the USS Gerald R. Ford carrier strike group that was deployed to the eastern Mediterranean to deter Iran and Hezbollah from joining the Israel-Hamas war. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin recently extended the deployment of the Ford strike group so it can remain in the eastern Mediterranean and had ordered the deployment of additional fighter aircraft to U.S. airbases in the region.To increase U.S. deterrence of an expansion in the conflict the Ford will soon be joined in the eastern Mediterranean by the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower carrier strike group that left Norfolk, Virginia on Saturday and could arrive in the region over the next 7 to 10 days."By posturing these U.S. naval assets and advanced fighter aircraft in the region, we aim to send a strong message intended to deter a wider conflict to bolster regional stability and of course to make it clear that we will protect and defend our national security interests," Ryder told reporters Thursday.The USS Carney had just transited into the Red Sea through the Suez Canal on Wednesday which is why the destroyer was still located in the northern stretch of that body of water that borders, Egypt, Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, Sudan, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen.The missile shot down by the USS Carney will bolster the deterrence in the region and demonstrate that the show of force is serious stuff, a senior U.S. official told ABC News.The risk to U.S. forces and U.S. interests in the region has increased particularly in the wake of a deadly explosion at a hospital in Gaza earlier this week that inflamed regional tensions.On Wednesday, three drones were shot down by U.S. military forces as they neared bases in western and northern Iraq, another drone was shot down near U.S. forces in eastern Syria on Thursday.A U.S. contractor sheltering in place at one of the bases in Iraq died of a cardiac arrest in one of the incidents.Al Asad airbase in western Iraq experienced indirect fire on Thursday according to a U.S. official.The Carney's shootdown of Houthi missiles opens up the possibility that the U.S. Navy may have to position more ships in the Red Sea if the U.S. commits to protecting Israel from a southern attack said Steve Ganyard, an ABC News contributor and a former Pentagon official."The larger concern is if Iran now considers U.S. ships fair game," said Ganyard. "Because if the Houthis shoot at a U.S. ship there will be little doubt that it would have been at Tehran’s direction.""That said, there is nothing to suggest, no known reason to believe that Iran wants a fight with the U.S. and/or Israel," said Ganyard. "So, hopefully things calm down."ABC News' Martha Raddatz contributed to this report.。 8 月 25 日消息，科技媒体 Wccftech 昨日（8 月 24 日）发布博文，报道称英特尔披露了 Wildcat Lake（酷睿 Series 3）系列处理器的相关细节。定位方面，英特尔 Wildcat Lake 主要面向入门级 PC，保留 Panther Lake 的基础架构，并通过封装、Die 面积、I/O 配置和优化主板设计降低平台成本。性能方面，Wildcat Lake 最高提供 40 TOPS 的平台 AI 算力，最高可达到 Raptor Lake U Refresh（酷睿 100 系列）的 2.7 倍；创作与生产力性能最高提升 2.1 倍，处理器功耗降低 64%。封装方案上，英特尔为降低封装成本和良率损失，Wildcat Lake 没有沿用 Panther Lake（酷睿 Ultra Series 3）的 Foveros 方案，改为使用有机多芯片封装（Multi-Chip Package，MCP）和 UCIe（Universal Chiplet Interconnect Express）方案。
B | 其中有机多芯片封装是一种将多个功能不同的裸芯片（Die）垂直堆叠或水平排列，共同封装在同一个有机基质载板（Organic Substrate）上的先进封装技术。
C | 而 UCIe 是半导体行业内的一个开源、标准化的芯粒（Chiplet）互连规范，定义了同一个封装内部（On-Package）不同芯片之间的通信标准，旨在打破过去的壁垒，让来自不同厂商、采用不同晶圆工艺节点的芯片能够像拼乐高积木一样，无缝地组装和协同工作。英特尔 Wildcat Lake 的计算 Die 采用 18A 工艺，I/O Die 采用台积电 N6 工艺。18A 支持双裸片方案的 UCIe 连接。这一变化也带来代价。UCIe 的凸点间距为 110 微米，Foveros 为 36 微米。更大的间距要求更高的 GT/s 速率，并扩大 I/O 与控制器区域，让 Wildcat Lake 的 UCIe Die 间接口面积比 Foveros 方案大 70%。与 Panther Lake 相比，Wildcat Lake 的计算 Die 面积缩小 38%。
D | 具体变化包括：Xe 图形核心最多 2 个，Panther Lake 为 4 个；保留用于 AI 的 XMX，取消光线追踪功能。NPU 减至最多 1 个，NPU 算力为 17 TOPS，平台总算力为 40 TOPS；Panther Lake 平台为 53 TOPS，NPU 为 3 个。P-Core 减至最多 2 个，Panther Lake 为 4 个；保留相同单线程性能，末级缓存从 12MB 减至 6MB。取消 IPU（图像处理单元）和用于摄像头的 USB 2 ISP。取消专业媒体功能。LP5 内存位宽从 128 位降至 64 位，系统缓存从 4MB 减至 2MB。显示管线最多 3 条，Panther Lake 为 4 条；保留 4K 60Hz 和 UHBR20 支持。附上相关图片如下：。
