Wccftech shares information on embargo dates for the upcoming Intel 12th Gen Core series.
Intel is to announce Alder Lake desktop processors on October 27th. This is the embargo date that has been listed in the document that has been leaked today. Furthermore, the product reviews and sales (so the actual hard launch) are now scheduled for November 4th. What this means is that we have a confirmation on both dates that have been rumored for a long time.
