Earlier this month, Boyd Phelps, Intel Corporate Vice President of Client Computing Group,
posted an update about the chip giant's architectural breakthroughs on Medium. It flew under the radar but the piece confirms that Intel has eight-core Tiger Lake processors. Phelps says these will be introduced at a later date.
The Willow Cove core increases the mid-level cache to 1.25MB — up from 512KB. We also added a 3MB non-inclusive last-level-cache (LLC) per core slice. A single core workload has access to 12MB of LLC in the 4-core die or up to 24MB in the 8-core die configuration (more detail on 8-core products at a later date).
A leak spotted by PTT Shopping forums user Sharkbay reveals Tiger Lake-H will have four, six, and eight-core configurations. These are 45W TDP chips but the eight-core parts will be limited to 32 graphics EUs. They're expected in 2021 and will compete with AMD's Ryzen 5000H "Cezanne" series.
The 35W and 45W variants of TGL-H are to be expected, with the 35W models featuring up to 4 cores and 96 GPU Executions Units.
The higher-end version with TDP up to 45W would feature 4, 6 and 8-core configurations. However, unlike the TGL-UP3 and TGL-H35 the 45W variant will only offer up to 32 EUs.
