Summary

It looks like Intel is adding back AVX-512 support to its client CPUs starting from the upcoming Nova Lake desktop lineup. Previously, we expected to see AVX-256 debut on a consumer family, allowing E-cores to execute 256-bit code, but now it seems that even the E-cores will gain native 512-bit registers.
