In this new naming scheme, Ice Lake's manufacturing process is called simply 10 nm, without any appended pluses.
Sunny Cove-based Xeon Scalable CPUs (codenamed "Ice Lake-SP") officially launched on April 6, 2021.
[14] Ice Lake-SP was succeeded by Sapphire Rapids, powered by Golden Cove cores.
Intel stated that the performance improvements would be achieved by making the core "deeper, wider, and smarter".
[citation needed] Each execution unit supports 7 threads, meaning that the design has 512 concurrent pipelines.
Pre-orders for laptops featuring Ice Lake CPUs started in August 2019, followed by shipments in September.
