Rumor: The next generation of Intel processors will be presented on October 27

According to the portal WCCFTech, the next generation of Intel processors will be presented on October 27. The Alder Lake architecture lineup will be showcased at Intel Innovation. Not only will Intel unveil new architecture and IPC improvements, but will also completely redesign the chips as the 12th Gen core family will be the first consumer-oriented launch of an x86 APU.

Sales of the new line will begin on November 19. Only expensive models are expected to be available by the end of the year, while the cheaper Core i5 and Corei3 will only be available next year. Intel will start its lineup with introductory "K" and "Non-K" chips, followed by more popular variants in the coming weeks.

Alder Lake is Intel's new 10nm microarchitecture. Its distinctive features are the use of cores for various purposes (large and small), support for DDR5 RAM and a new LGA 1700 socket.

On the desktop platform, Intel's Alder Lake PC processors will support the all-new 600-series platform, which will include Z690 motherboards. The motherboard will feature an LGA 1700 socket, which is designed around Alder Lake and upcoming processors.

The line is expected to be released with six processors: Core i9-12900K, Core i9-12900KF, Core i7-12700K, Core i7-12700KF, Core i5-12600K and Core i5-12600KF.
