Computex 2019: Intel launches next-gen Ice Lake CPUs based on 10nm process node

AMD’s 7nm Ryzen 3000 series pretty much stole all the headlines at Computex 2019, but Intel has something up its sleeve that will push back the Red tide. The much anticipated 10nm Intel processors made their presence felt at the event.

The chipmaker finally took the wraps off the 10th Gen Intel Core processors, codenamed 'Ice Lake'. The 10th Gen processors will mark Intel’s first major chip redesign since 2015’s Skylake architecture. The 'Ice Lake' CPUs will be available in Core i3, i5 and i7 variants with 11th-gen Iris Plus integrated graphics. The chipmaker also revealed some of the capabilities of the chips and what it would mean for PCs when they ship in June.

Senior VP and GM of Client Computing at Intel, Gregory M. Bryant mentioned in his Computex 2019 keynote; “Our job is to come together as an industry and deliver incredible and differentiated PCs, purpose-built to what real people want. 10th Gen Intel Core processors — our most integrated CPU — and Project Athena are great examples of how our deep investments at a platform level will help fuel innovation across the industry.”
