They look like they could be decent, power efficient CPUs, but unfortunately, the 'B' designation probably means 'BGA', e.g. CPUs are soldered to the motherboard, and sold as prebuilt NUC PCs only.
I wonder if there will be socket LGA1200 (desktop) versions of these Tigerlake chips in then 2nd half of 2021? Would give people a reason to buy new '11th gen' CPUs for Christmas. I think anyone buying an NUC should hold off for these 10nm CPUs.
I'm curious how successful Rocketlake CPUs were in sales terms, considering the sidegrade in realworld performance improvements vs Cometlake, weaker DDR memory controller and up to 400w power usage on just 8 CPU cores?
I still don't think we will see availability of desktop 10nm Alder Lake CPUs until Q1/Q2 2022.
Lol wut, the Ryzen 5900X is the best selling CPU right now in the UK despite costing ~£500, according to Google Shops:

Can that be correct? The Ryzen 5600X is selling better in the US currently, as it's cheaper than the UK price.
Intel has designed a NUC / small form factor PC with integrated Tigerlake 10nm processors and support for full size graphics cards (12-inches max), see details here:

I wonder if this is how Intel intend to market their upcoming 'Xe DG2' 6nm graphics card?
EDIT - looks like these large NUCs won't support the higher end 4-8 core Tiger Lake 'B-series' CPUs (mobile CPUs instead)... What a waste!
