I know people like to meme that Intel is never going to advance nodes ever again, but they are finally launching 10nm products. Ice Lake-U is launched and server comes next.
Desktop is going to hold back for a while simply because Coffee Lake/Comet Lake are such high clockers that Ice Lake won't be able to outperform them, and it relieves the strain on 10nm fabs.
Core for core Coffee Lake still outperforms Zen2 through raw clocks, although IPC is starting to fall behind.
This 10mm Ice Lake CPU officially launched in June at Computex... Three months later they are nowhere to be seen, and nobody is showing a product including this CPU. So what is going on?
