Intel's 10th Generation Comet Lake-S Desktop Core CPUs have yet to launch but leaks of the 11th Gen Rocket Lake-S Core CPUs have already started appearing. The first Rocket Lake-S Engineering Sample, which is an 8 core CPU, has been spotted by hardware leaker Rogame and there are some really interesting things we have to talk about.

The Intel Rocket Lake-S Desktop CPUs have been talked about for several months since we spotted the first references of the family dating back to 2019. The Intel Rocket Lake-S family will be branded as the 11th Generation Core lineup, replacing the Comet Lake-S CPUs which are to be introduced in the coming month. While both CPU families are based on a 14nm process node, they both house vastly different chip architectures with the Comet Lake-S family reusing an optimized version of the Skylake architecture while Rocket Lake-S family would be using the new Cove line of architectures.
