Intel has announced that as you read this they will no longer manufacture their 11th Gen Tiger Lake processors, which are geared towards laptops and mini PCs. This news surprised many, but the company seems to have a clear vision of its strategy. .
And it is that, the new models and the demand for them have caused the production of their 2021 processors to stop. This means that those on the market will soon be exhausted and therefore buying one will be an almost impossible task.
And now what?
Well yes, since June 5 Intel has stopped production of the 11th generation Tiger Lake processors
These were geared more towards laptops and mini PCs, and chances are that if you bought one recently, it came with one of these processors. Well, by now you should know that you will be one of the few to have these since they will no longer be made and therefore it will be weeks or months before we sell out of this product in store.
However, if you already own one of these processors, don’t worry. Intel announced that it would continue to support users of these products. Although the number of users of Tiger Lake processors is limited, the company will not let them down. They are simply betting on their newest and most successful technology.
Some models can be ordered directly from Intel, which will continue to collect orders through June 30 and ship through 2024. However, that’s likely unless you need to replace one for a specific case. of these models, it is foolish to order something that we might consider discontinued. For that, it is better to wait for the release of the new ones.
This is a risky move on Intel’s part since these models were selling quite well since they were practically new, however, if they took this step, it is because they are sure that their next versions in are worth it and they don’t want old technology in their windows.
For now, we just have to wait and see what the next few years will surprise us with. What we do know at the moment is that one more generation, in this case the 11th, has already passed away.
Competition in the processor industry is fierce, and we’re sure Intel has exciting plans to stay on top. We will be attentive to the next moves of the company and ready to tell you about them.
If you are considering buying a laptop computer, for now we will stick with the 12th Gen Alder Lake, but we won’t know how long they will last in the market. The same next year is also its end. Who knows.
