Intel is splitting its high-end Tiger Lake mobile chip lineup to meet two TDP targets: 35 Watts and 45 Watts. Tiger Lake-H35 chips have been launched, with 4 cores, 8 threads, and 96 graphics "Xe" (Gen12) execution units. Later in Q1, Intel will launch 45 Watt TDP Tiger Lake with up to 8 cores, 16 threads.
Intel has also launched new "Jasper Lake" Celeron/Pentium chips on a "10nm" process node. Jasper Lake uses the Tremont Atom core previously used in Lakefield. TDPs range from 6-10 Watts. 16 GB of memory is explicity supported, up from 8 GB of Gemini Lake Refresh (although boards like the ODROID-H2+ supported 32 GB, go figure). Graphics performance of the Pentium Silver N6005 should be substantially higher than its predecessor due to the use of Gen11 graphics and an increase to 32 execution units.

Gotta ask, why did they do this? Self-loathing? Or was Runaway1956 involved?
