It'd be support for 2 generations but what you get is Comet and Rocket. I don't see the point in releasing an 10 nm HEDT processor but I suppose they could.Yep... which to me sounds like higher core count might not be LGA1200
Mfw Intel might not support a socket for even 2 full generations.
Does suggest it's Skylake but it could be some bastard version of a Cove. Backporting the IGP is probably easier.Only AVX 2 for RKL? It would be hilarious if they update the iGPU architecture but don't touch the CPU cores.
The iGPU isn't a backport, it's a 10nm chiplet.It'd be support for 2 generations but what you get is Comet and Rocket. I don't see the point in releasing an 10 nm HEDT processor but I suppose they could.

IIRC it's both for U although that could change. S is only using 14 nm.The iGPU isn't a backport, it's a 10nm chiplet.
Nah, the tweakers roadmaps are correct.IIRC it's both although that could change.
The iGPU isn't a backport, it's a 10nm chiplet.
There's no point to backporting only the iGPU onto 14nm. Everything else suggests that the I/O is all the same as 10nm. RKL is likely a 10nm I/O die and 14nm CPU cores.Only a few RKL-U are 14nm+10nm gfx according to the tweakers Roadmap leak. Rocket Lake-S is fully 14nm in this Roadmap, so it must be a backport.
Also fulfil's Intel's promise of 10nm desktop chips.
That was the first thing that jumped out at me. AVX2 = uh oh.Only AVX 2 for RKL? It would be hilarious if they update the iGPU architecture but don't touch the CPU cores.
Possibly. Probably.Not if the CPU cores are on 14nm. So do you think the Roadmap was wrong for RKL-S?
I can double that. The first row is a strong hint of Skylake.That was the first thing that jumped out at me. AVX2 = uh oh.
The second thing that jumped out at me was no Alder Lake or anything else 10nm at desktop power levels. Many of us suspected that, but still some held out hope. That hope is dying quickly.
Possibly. Probably.
That's why I was saying that the IGP might be easier to backport. Could be a timing issue.There's no point to backporting only the iGPU onto 14nm.
Sharkbay's quote mentions no Rocket H, just S and U. No H does suggest Skylake cores as Intel didn't see a point in doing it. Instead, Rocket U is rumored to have 35+ W models as well although that could be later.And what about the commercial RKL-U and RKL-H, was it wrong as well? The roadmap explicitly stated 14nm+14nm gfx.
Hey don't look at me, I can only talk about hand-me-down-info. But 14nm+10nm across the board has been been the rumour for a while. Well that being said, so was >= 10 cores, so plans could have changed.And what about the commercial RKL-U and RKL-H, was it wrong as well? The roadmap explicitly stated 14nm+14nm gfx.
Haha, he said 'roadmap' and 'Intel' in the same sentence.Intel's roadmap must be in shambles by now.

Makes sense with the shortage. Cooper Lake must be such a wafer hog.Haha, he said 'roadmap' and 'Intel' in the same sentence.
Seriously though, future products feel like a bit of a mess. Comet Lake launch will be fun with only the smaller die with the bigger one coming later (again, rumour comes from Sharkbay).
Even if it were Sunny/Willow based, it wouldn't bring the full IPC gains and would lose to Zen 3. Not to mention whilst being a complete power hog.If it's Skylake based Intel is lost for a while, I mean we are talking about a 2021 product. And they even lowered the core count compared to CML-S. The iGPU won't help them in the desktop segment.
If it is chiplets, maybe they can bin the chiplet to get more frequency. Getting a decent amount sounds tough.If it's Skylake based Intel is lost for a while, I mean we are talking about a 2021 product. And they even lowered the core count compared to CML-S.

I don't think it's actual CPUs yet, still chipsets for now. I know there was that new article, but they were...light... on details, to say the least.Makes sense with the shortage. Cooper Lake must be such a wafer hog.
There's also been a flareup of the Intel fabbing CPUs at Samsung rumors, although I guess it would be Atom and friends and not Core.
Rocket Lake seems to be Comet Lake but with the memory controller validated for 3733 speeds.Only AVX 2 for RKL? It would be hilarious if they update the iGPU architecture but don't touch the CPU cores.
Hmm, being up to 8 cores supports the possibility that 8+ cores are moving to the HEDT platform.Rocket Lake i9 although perhaps from another platform (Sapphire Rapids?)
IIRC there was talk of a 4+3e Comet Lake model. Not that you will actually see it but it may have been planned at one point.Few additional notes:
-Seems to have a typo with CML having 48EUs
Interesting.Rocket Lake also has the move to chiplets in theory.
