It only took:
AMD going 7nm
Apple going 7m
other companies churning their own processors

for intel to go 10nm -.-

There's plenty of analysis to show Intel's 10nm is comparable to Global Foundaries/Ryzen 7nm process - same transistor density etc. Since 90nm, process naming has less to do with actual physical measurements and more to do with marketing - it's all of case of where you decide to measure. Much like the gigahertz myth of the late 90's - 2000s

Ultimately it's transistor density as well as the how fast these transistors can switch at high power levels for the performance desktop market that actually matters - here Intel 10nm is predicted to be comparable to Global Foundries 7nm..

Not really, unlike Rocket Lake, 10nm superfin should be comparable to AMD's 7nm, so benchmarks should be more interesting.

I'm surprised that intel didn't go for another 6 core with higher clock speed though. Would make more sense than those H35 cpu's

These processors are essentially dead on arrival...

I believe TGL is SF.  Alder Lake is ESF.

I could be wrong, but I remember reading somewhere that TGL-H will also be ESF though we know ESF is definitely coming with ADL. Thanks for pointing it out. Corrected the headline :)
