Intel confirms 8C/16T Core i9-10885H mobile processor

Intel has confirmed new SKUs for its 10th Gen Core series.

Core i9-10885H

Initially, the Core i9-10885H SKU was rumored to be a preproduction sample later renamed to 10980HK. As it turns out, that’s not true. The processor does exist, it’s a new SKU sharing the clocks and core count with 10980HK.

The second Core i9 processor in the Comet Lake-H lineup (45W) has also been listed in a leak from Dell, where the company indirectly confirmed that the 10885H would launch as an option for XPS 17 9700 lineup. In fact, Forbes yesterday reported that these XPS notebooks will launch this week, which aligns with the launch of the new Intel processors, as they will be announced tomorrow.

The i9-10885H appears to be identical to 10980HK, the difference is likely related to limited overclocking capabilities of the “H” CPU model.

Intel will also add three new U-Series processors, the 10810U, 10610U and 10310U. These are all 15W processors for ultra-thin laptops. The i7-10810 is the flagship model for the series featuring 6 cores and 12 threads. Intel has only confirmed the base clock of 1.1 GHz, which is the same for the 10710U model.

The slide we are sharing today comes from a presentation for the upcoming Intel 10th Gen vPro series. These are enterprise-grade solutions for businesses, comparable to AMD’s Ryzen Pro series. All four SKUs will be included in the vPro processor series.

Intel 10th Gen Core vPro mobile processors will be announced on May 13th.
