From the article, mid-2020 for the Ice Lake equivalent:
> Ice lake promises 18% higher IPC, eight instead of six memory channels and should be able to offer 56 or more cores in reasonable power envelope as it will use Intel's most advanced 10 nm process. The big question will be around the implementation of the design, if it uses chiplets, how the memory works, and the frequencies they can reach.
- twotwotwo 7y agoRight, depends on the things AT mentioned, but also on execution: whether the the issues with 10nm are over (now that they've shipped some chips) or if they'll also slow the scale-up to server-sized dies. Intel moving to chiplets could certainly mitigate that risk some, with tradeoffs similar to the ones in EPYC.
- lettergram 7y agoSupposedly, they will only be shipping to select customers initially (and at 28 cores) in 2020.
