A mysterious processor is revealed in 3D Mark. It is an Intel Rocket Lake chip with 6 cores and 12 threads.
The first processors of the “Rocket Lake” family are starting to become unveiled. we have a possible Intel Core i5 desktop in front of us. Rocket Lake corresponds to the 11th generation of Intel desktop processors. Here we tell you all about this leak.
Intel Rocket Lake: a CPU with 6 cores and 12 threads is filtered
We don’t have the list of processors that will be coming to Rocket Lake, but we do have this leak showing an Intel CPU that belongs to that family. Supposedly it is a backport of the Willow Cove 10nm core, but it has been adapted for a 14nm process. It is therefore a family compatible with the LGA1200, which will be released in late 2020 or early 2021.
Expectations for Intel’s 10nm are high as it is an important step for the company. This process will be seen in laptops and desktops as well as server solutions.
Now we come to the filtering of @TUM_APISAK, a well-known Twitter user who is known for his leaks in the 3D Mark and Surrogate databases. This time we see a Rocket Lake CPU with 6 cores and 12 threads. It has a base frequency of 3.5 GHz, like a 4.09 GHz turbo.
We could see a higher turbo frequency. They would be delivered with integrated Intel Xe graphics of the 12th generation. Be careful with this generation, because it could be a big rival for Ryzen. It’s true that backporting would sacrifice space and efficiency, or the heat of the cubes.
