Intel Issues Discontinuation Notice for Many 11th Gen Core Processors

[TheLostSwede]

Not entirely unexpected, Intel has started to discontinue its 11th Gen Core processors, also known as Tiger Lake. In a product change notification (PCN) the company has listed no less than five mobile and four desktop parts that the company will stop letting its customers order from the end of June this year, with the last shipment taking place at the end of January 2024.

The discontinued range covers everything from Core i3 to Core i9 models and the full range of discontinued models can be found in the screenshot below. It should be noted that the desktop parts are the B SKU parts that were for example found in Intel's NUC 11 Extreme and are 65 W TDP parts. Most of the mobile parts are still available in products being sold, albeit, most of those products being older SKUs that have been replaced by 12th and 13th Gen Core processors by now. None of the products in the PCN were available directly to end consumers to purchase as far as TPU is aware.

11th gen is on the (very slow) journey to the silicon graveyard, but apparently the 10th gen has nothing to worry about yet.

Intel discontinued those over two years ago: https://www.hardwaretimes.com/intel...lineup-incl-the-10900k-10700k-and-the-10600k/

edit: That's just for K parts, but they gradually discontinued other parts over the next couple years too. I'm not sure if there are any 10th-gen parts still in production.

Wasn't 11th Gen called Rocket Lake?

Hi,
Yep 11900k rocket one core by loosing 2 cores to do it
It was really a troll release to beat amd single core speed lol EOLakes

Only on desktop. The mobile parts were tiger lake and differentiated from their desktop counterparts.

11th gen intel was a total disaster.

Desktop parts were. The mobile Tiger Lake parts were much better and on 10nm.

Rocketlake was pretty amazing, I don't know if AMD and TSMC would be able to get something like this done in as short a time as intel did it.
What if TSMC gets stuck on 3nm for a couple of years.
Would they be able to get zen 6 on 4nm?

LOL. LMAO even.

In the time it took intel to go from skylake to "arch that will replace skylake eventually" AMD produced zen, zen+, zen 2, AND zen 3, and less then a month after rocket lake we got the 5800x3d.

Intel took FOREVER to respond to the zen threat, reminder that rocket lake was 3 years late to market and half baked when we got it.

What if TSMC gets stuck on 3nm for a couple of years.

AMD has had no issue backporting zen to older designs so I dont think they'll have issues.

Yeah?

Works fine for me, zero blue screens since i installed it back in May 2021.

Maybe not in production (Intel may be keeping ten pallets of packaged but unmarked 10900K chips on stock, then mark and sell them as needed). But they are still orderable as of right now. Last delivery will be on 27th October 2023, just three months earlier than the 11th gen and 22 months after the 9th gen. There discontinuation notice also doesn't list some chips, probably those of most interest to OEMs: the i5-10500, i5-10600 and everything below i5. Here's the database of PCNs, you need product codes (such as BX8070110500) to search it.

So the reports of the death of the 14nm node are greatly exaggerated. 14nm will live forever or at least die with a half-life.

This definitely one rocket that blew up on the launch pad. Good riddance!
