Gigabyte has officially confirmed that Intel’s 11th Gen Core “Rocket Lake-S” processors will launch in March of this year.
AMD has been stealing the show lately for the processor market, but Intel looks to be changing that soon. Gigabyte announced that all Z490 motherboards featuring PCIe 4.0 will support Intel’s 11th Gen “Rocket Lake-S” CPUs. In order for consumers to take advantage of this feature, they must install the F20 BIOS to seamlessly implement the 11th Gen Core processors. In announcing this new feature, Gigabyte has also confirmed that Intel’s 11th Gen Core processors will be released in March 2020. The 11th generation processors will be based on the brand new Cypress Cove architecture but it looks like Gigabyte is unaware of that as their presser mentions that they will be using the same architecture as the previous generation CPUs along with full PCIe Gen 4.
