Today, Intel officially launched 11 new 10th Gen Intel Core processors designed for 2 in 1s and laptops.

The processors bring high-performance artificial intelligence (AI) to the PC at scale, feature new Intel Iris Plus graphics for entertainment and support built-in connectivity with Intel Wi-Fi 6 (Gig+) and Thunderbolt 3.

Systems are expected from PC manufacturers for the holiday season.

The 10th Gen Intel Core processors offer a suite of features and capabilities:

• Intel Deep Learning Boost, a new, dedicated instruction set that accelerates neural networks on the CPU for maximum responsiveness in scenarios such as automatic image enhancements, photo indexing and photorealistic effects.
• Up to 1 teraflop of GPU engine compute for sustained, high-throughput inference applications like video stylization, analytics and real-time video resolution upscaling.
• Intel Gaussian & Neural Accelerator (GNA) delivers a dedicated engine for background workloads such as voice processing and noise suppression at ultra-low power.

With double the graphics performance, 10th Gen Intel Core processors with Intel Iris Plus graphics make a reality gaming in 1080p and higher-level content creation, like 4K video editing, quick application of video filters and high-resolution photo processing on the go. Plus:

These are the first GPUs from Intel to support VESA’s Adaptive Sync display standard, which enables a smoother gaming experience across games like Dirt Rally 2.0 and Fortnite.

Based on Intel’s Gen11 graphics architecture, they are also the first integrated GPU to incorporate variable rate shading for improved rendering performance.
With support for the BT.2020 specification, watch 4K HDR video in a billion colors.

Increased board integration helps PC manufacturers differientate on form factor for sleeker designs with Intel Wi-Fi 6 (Gig+) connectivity and up to four Thunderbolt 3 ports — the fastest and most versatile USB-C connector available.

Product Line-up:

Intel is also introducing a new processor number naming structure starting with this first set of 10th Gen Intel Core processors.

Processor numbers for the 10th Generation Intel Core processors use an alphanumeric scheme based on generation and product line following the brand and its modifier. The first digit in the four-number sequence indicates the generation of processor, the next three digits are SKU numbers followed by the graphics performance identifier. Where applicable, an alpha suffix appears at the end of the processor name, which represents the processor line.

The processors, code-named “Ice Lake,” are the first to debut in the 10th Gen Intel Core processor family and will be available in new designs from PC manufacturers for the holiday season. This year at Computex, Intel previewed some of the first systems expected to arrive and on track for verification through the innovation program code-named “Project Athena,” including Acer Swift 5, Dell XPS 13 2-in-1, HP Envy 13” and Lenovo S940.

Intel will announce additional products in the 10th Gen Intel Core mobile processor family. The upcoming processors promise to deliver increased productivity and performance scaling for demanding, multithreaded workloads, including the flagship built-for-business Intel vPro platform. Expect to hear more details this month.
