Intel launches 11th-generation 10nm Core H-series processors

Intel H-series chips are usually used in gaming laptops and desktops. In 2015, Intel’s H-series chips stayed at 14 nanometers after problems with the Sky Lake chip.

And the new version launched this time finally says goodbye to the 14-nanometer process: the core i9-11980HK with the highest configuration provides a 5 GHz turbo frequency based on the 10-nanometer process.

This may be good news for gamers who are pursuing high performance. After all, there are many high-performance processors on desktops but not many options on laptops.

At present, this series of chips has not been compared with AMD’s chips in the same gear, but Intel hints that its performance is 17% higher than that of RYZEN 5900 HX.

In terms of products alone, this series of new chips is not particularly outstanding. After all, Intel has already introduced thin and light portable chips in the 10-nanometer field.

However, it is not easy for the H series to advance from 14nm. For gamers, if they can choose a desktop computer, there are a lot of high-performance processors as long as they are willing to spend.

But if you can only choose a notebook computer, the H series has better performance than other processors in the same gear. It is expected that there should be many gaming laptops equipped with this processor.

The highest configuration of the new series is the Intel Core i9-11980HK version. This processor has 8 CPU cores with a core frequency of up to 5.0GHz and power consumption of 65W.

This is also the only 65W processor in the 11th generation Tiger Lake-H series. Other processors in the H series are 35W, so the performance is relatively weak.
