We pretty much followed everything related to Intel's 10 nm, when some analysts came to predict the fact that the company left that node aside and focused on EUV technology.
The problem as it is, delays separately, is that Intel has invested in both and hopes to put it into a new node, so it should merge with a roadmap to please investors and, in addition, give time to EUV technology and ASML
Tiger Lake will arrive this year with advances in the lithographic process
What is so shocking and seems to be dropping blocks is that 10 nm is clearly not going to be the best place Intel has. This is surprising because, in large quantities, the increase is really impressive, so Intel CFO has to look at the final frames, a very similar but much faster step than seen from 22 nm to 14 nm first generation.
So even though everything is going on, there will be a new 10 nm + and 7 nm EUV that will physically restore the complexity of building processors, where not only will it affect the masses, but a higher frequency is expected compared to what we can see at 10 nm.
So, it's clear that we can't expect a frequency near or above 5 GHz, so the performance jump will have to come with improved architecture and IPC, where Intel has already revealed that we will see an 18% correction in the final performance against Kaby Lake, which should translate into 15% against Cofi Lake and we'll see how much impact it has on the fight against Comet Lake.
