Are these actually 10nm? I keep presuming 10th gen chips are 10nm and then realising they’re actually 14++

- api 7y agoI'd be surprised if mine is not, since the 2020 Air runs significantly cooler than the 2019 Air in spite of having twice the cores and being faster. It being 10nm is the best explanation for this. This might also explain the lack of an eight physical core option for this 13" pro. There may be no octacore 10nm desktop/laptop chips yet. It would make sense that Intel would prioritize lower power chips like the one used in the Air as these benefit most from the new process node.
- jonplackett 7y agoThese are higher performance chips in the MacBook Pro though. I don’t think the 16 inch has 10nm.
