AMD released the Ryzen 5000 series processors this year, and the single-core performance has also counterattacked. Now the desktop CPU market is almost one-sided. Intel has no choice now, but in 2021 they have prepared two generations of Core desktop processors, of which the Alder Lake upgrade is the biggest.

At the Credit Suisse Technology Conference, Intel CEO Si Ruibo also talked about the company's 2021 product line. First of all, there will be a desktop-level eleventh-generation Core early next year, code-named Rocket Lake, and the mobile platform will have Tiger Lake- H series, up to 8 cores and 16 threads.

The Rocket Lake generation we know is 14nm process, LGA1200 socket, but it will be equipped with the new 500 series chipset, and the number of cores has returned from the current 10 cores and 20 threads to 8 cores and 16 threads, causing many people to be a little unhappy, even if Its IPC performance will greatly increase.

However, the twelfth generation of Core in the second half of the year will be a major upgrade. Seribo stated that the Alder Lake generation will upgrade the 10nm SuperFin process, as well as a new large and small core architecture. This is a truly exciting product.

This statement not only confirms Alder Lake’s process and architecture upgrades, it is also the first time that the CEO has made it clear that the 12th-generation Core will be released in the second half of next year. This is after the seventh and eighth-generation Cores have been launched in succession after 2017. Generation Core processor, and this upgrade is more sincere than last time.

According to previous news, Alder Lake will upgrade the Golden Cove core, focusing on ST single-core performance and AI performance, while improving security, supporting more advanced networks and 5G, etc.

Intel previously stated that the Alder Lake architecture is the most important upgrade after the Core deduction architecture in 2006. The performance is very interesting and worth looking forward to.
