Granted, the 10nm "boom" from Intel has passed without the punishment or glory of the laptops in Ice Lake. So much so that they are not part of Intel playing CPUs, but that gap has been covered by Comet Lake-H instead of Ice Lake-U (or H as possible).
But why is Tiger Lake so optimistic? What is so special
The Intel Core i7-1185G7 will return to the company's GHz router
Although Ice Lake is a point and is followed in architecture and development within Intel (and not a "comma" like Comet Lake-S) Tiger Lake will be a more significant development. The art of construction until its arrival is based on the development of the Skylake, by what means, and nevertheless The greed of the sun Here we are, facing an accident compared to the Ryzen 4000 from AMD.
All had to "blame" the company's 10nm lithographic process, which, as was the case with Broadwell-E at that time and at 14nm, the first band was severely cut. These drainage drains have reduced the efficiency of the smaller performing structures, and have led to significant improvements in the IPC, but it is not enough if the aim was to advance and defeat the opponent.
This will not be possible with Tiger Lake, since it leaves the design of the Skylake and Sunny Cove construction projects in line with Willow Cove, but, above all, makes the jump 10 nm ++.
Tiger Lake will arrive this year with good performance
The first rumors are already placing this construction on a comprehensive and comprehensive list. After the leak of WebMu user interfaces MebiuW (already mature months ago and successfully running the i9-10900K compared to the i9-9900K) where he noted that the new Tiger Lake-U i7-1185G7 would reach a larger number of 4.7 GHz, all rumors exploded.
Remember that we are talking about a low power processor up to 10 nm ++ and that will reach the average figure as current desktop CPUs have similar calls.
This in itself will provide a very high performance increase compared to Ice Lake, but in this case should be added IPC upgrades to the new Willow Cove phones, where Intel is currently increasing the figure by double digits.
As soon as this upgrade reaches 15% separately, Intel can offer more than 30% more performance (not IPC), optimism on the one hand and caution on the other (+18% talk in front of Ice Lake). Is it possible? Possibly, it will all depend on the constant frequency that Tiger Lake can maintain, but if it is true we are talking about a major AMD problem, which will also now come with Zen 3 and hypothetical + 15% IPC and multiple MHz for desktop platform.
