Intel Announces Four New Processor Families at CES 2021 (thanks
Hypothermia). Interestingly, they refer to their new desktop CPUs as
targeting business, while the gaming CPUs they tout for gaming are mobile
processors. Here's word on their gaming plans:
New Line of 11th Gen
Intel® Core™ H-series Mobile Processors for the Best Gaming Platforms
Intel launched a new line of 11th Gen Intel Core H-series mobile processors for
gaming that extends the 11th Gen mobile family of products and pushes the limits
of what’s possible for enthusiast-level gaming in laptops as thin as 16
millimeters. Led by the Intel® Core™ i7 Special Edition 4-core processor with up
to 5 gigahertz (GHz) Turbo, these H35 processors are specifically targeted for
ultraportable gaming. They feature new Gen 4 PCIE architecture for connecting to
latest discrete graphics and deliver amazingly low latency and immersive game
play on the go. At CES, Acer, ASUS, MSI and Vaio announced new systems powered
by the 11th Gen Intel Core H35-series processor for ultraportable gaming, with
more than 40 designs from top manufacturing partners launching in the first half
of 2021.
For mobile enthusiasts who want desktop-caliber gaming and creation performance,
Intel also announced an 8-core processor that will start shipping later this
quarter. This platform is unique in the industry with features that would
normally only be found in high-end desktop systems – including up to 5GHz, 20
lanes of PCIe Gen 4.0 architecture for fastest storage and discrete graphics,
and Intel® Killer™ Wi-fi 6E (Gig+).
