This was the most annoying search I've had recently, all the results seem to point to the 11th gen Tigerlake laptop CPU for desktops instead of laptops. It's hard to find any info since Google treats laptops and desktops differently. Are Intel planning to skip this year or will they wait for AMD's release?
They aren't available for desktop or mobile; there was a graphics display event.
There isn't a confirmed 11th generation Intel desktop CPU lineup yet. The upcoming design remains unclear, with Rocket Lake being mentioned in speculation but no official details from Intel. Should it materialize, it's expected around the end of this year or early next year, potentially incorporating a new core variant based on 14nm technology. This would likely work with the 10th generation Comet Lake chipsets, though a shift in chipset architecture might follow. If Rocket Lake doesn't come to fruition, Alder Lake is the next anticipated option, built on 10nm and slated for release in the second half of 2021 for both desktops and laptops.
This suggests they’re skipping a release for the first time, likely due to the arrival of a next-gen i7 and similar updates, with August 2019 marking their final release.
11th generation chips aren't available on desktops just yet. Observations suggest they might arrive later in 2020 to early 2021. There was a report today about a leak indicating reduced core counts compared to the 10th generation (like the 8-core version on the 11900k), though I'm not sure if that's accurate.
They didn’t stick to a strict yearly schedule before, and there were periods without updates longer than a year. Recent hints about Rocket Lake indicate a 14nm version of the new cores, which are more advanced than the Skylake design. This suggests they’ll likely use more chip space, possibly limiting consumer chips to just eight cores. There’s also a chance they won’t include all the features present in Tiger Lake.
