Intel Denys Recent 10nm Claims – Will be Available in 2021

Originally there have been rumors flying around that Intel will keep using 14nm CPUs until 2022! Turns it out to be false.

Intel in a quick rebuttal to the earlier reports from Monday, clarified that desktop processors based on the 10 nm silicon fabrication node are still on the company’s roadmap. “We continue to make great progress on 10 nm, and our current roadmap of 10 nm products includes desktop,” the company said in its one-liner. Monday’s reports predicted a horror story where Intel would drag its 14 nm “Skylake” derived microarchitecture through to 2022, at which point it would be 7 years old.

The Tom’s Hardware report that posts the statement, however, pins 14 nm to still last till 2021, if not the 2022 date predicted in the HardwareLuxx report. Intel will sell “Comet Lake” through 2020, succeeded by “Rocket Lake,” which takes up much of 2021. Towards the end of 2021, Intel will release a desktop processor based on its matured 10 nm++ silicon fabrication node, which will lead the company into 2022, when it finally launches 7 nm EUV-based desktop chips.
