The March 2011 release of Rocket Lake processors, the 11th generation Intel Core for desktop is closing in. But leaks have already painted a good picture of their specifications: we have an overview of Rocket Lake SKUs from Core i5-11400F to octa-core i7-11700K and i9-11900K chips, even with parameters and clock speeds. Rocket Lake cores have 18% higher IPC, so single-threaded performance should be significantly improved. Read more “A peek at Intel Rocket Lake processors: SKUs and leaked specs”
In Q1 2021, Intel is expected to release Rocket Lake, the new 11th generation of desktop processors, still using 14nm manufacturing process, but with a new architecture, PCIe 4.0 and probably much higher single-threaded and gaming performance. According to rumors, the CPU launch should be in March, but it looks like the platform with new motherboards, such as B560, Z590, etc. could be released sooner, as early as a few days from now.

Next year in March, Intel will release the 11th generation Core processors for desktop. These sister chips to 10nm Tiger Lake in notebooks, although using 14nm silicon, will have the same new core architecture and features like PCIe 4.0. We now have leaks that show what to expect from Core i9-11900K, the highest model of the Rocket Lake CPU. This should be the SKU that will be of most interest to gamers.

In the latest Core i9-10900K test, we found it to be great for high fps games, but the power draw, price and performance are not as good as the competition, AMD, offers. Intel still maintained its lead in games, but the 10900K is definitely not an ideal processor. If games are your priority, the alternative may be the Core i7-10700K which is actually just a redesignated and slightly modified Core i9-9900K.

The 10th generation of Intel Core processors, called Comet Lake-S, is the latest iteration of Skylake and, unlike the mobile Ice Lake, is still 14 nm. However, this constant tuning of this manufacturing process has resulted in record frequencies that are specifically related to the most powerful processor currently in the LGA 1200 socket. Now the only question is whether this will be enough for the Ryzen 9 3900X. Read more “Intel Core i9-10900K: The Last of the Mohicans”
Minicomputers and NUC barebones from Intel is nothing new. But this year, there will be an interesting innovation: a model with dedicated graphics card. Not in the style of high-end Hades Canyon (Kaby Lake-G with Vega GPU) of course. It’s going to be NUC with a cheaper Radeon in some classic chassis, and the price will be lower. This model will probably be one of the first computers with 10nm Intel processors – which may be related. Read more “NUC with 10nm Cannon Lake processors and Radeon GPU”
It’s strange, but desktop computers have been stagnant for over twenty years. In most cases, they are still built on the ATX standard in “oversized“ towers. From a rational point of view, however, such a concept should be marginal and replaced by SFF. A traditional PC can be tiny, powerful, and silent at the same time. And its equipment does not have to limit you. Read more ““Modern desktop based on Mini-STX” by HWCooling.net”
