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.
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.
Does suggest it's Skylake but it could be some bastard version of a Cove. Backporting the IGP is probably easier.

Nah, the tweakers roadmaps are correct.IIRC it's both although that could change.

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.

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.
There's no point to backporting only the iGPU onto 14nm.
And what about the commercial RKL-U and RKL-H, was it wrong as well? The roadmap explicitly stated 14nm+14nm gfx.

Intel's roadmap must be in shambles by now.
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.

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).
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.

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 i9 although perhaps from another platform (Sapphire Rapids?)
Few additional notes:
-Seems to have a typo with CML having 48EUs
Rocket Lake also has the move to chiplets in theory.
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.
Hmm, being up to 8 cores supports the possibility that 8+ cores are moving to the HEDT platform.
