Comet Lake
Comet Lake is Intel's codename for the fourth 14 nm Skylake process-refinement, following Whiskey Lake for U-series mobile processors and Coffee Lake for others. Intel announced low power mobile Comet Lake-U CPUs availability on August 21, 2019. Intel announced 10th generation Intel Core H-series mobile SoCs on April 2, 2020. Desktop Comet Lake-S CPUs were announced on April 30, 2020. Intel announced Xeon W-1200 series workstation CPUs on May 13, 2020.
These CPUs are sold together with Ice Lake 10 nm CPUs as Intel's "10th Generation Core".
