The Intel Rocket Lake Desktop CPU family will be branded under the 11th Generation Core banner and will feature a brand new core and graphics architecture for the desktop segment. > The Intel Rocket Lake Desktop CPU spotted within the Geekbench 5 database (via TUM_APISAK) looks very similar to the previous entry we got to see in 3DMark a whole month back. There's no official name for this particular chip yet but we do get to see its specifications which are very interesting. For starters, the Rocket Lake CPU features 8 cores and 16 threads. The Rocket Lake CPUs are based on a brand new core architecture that is post-Skylake but there have been reports that it could be a hybrid between the Sunny Cove (Ice Lake) and Willow Cove (Tiger Lake) cores.
