According to two new Product Change Notifications (PCNs), Intel has discontinued the company's Gemini Lake Refresh (GLK-R) processors. The 14nm Pentium and Celeron-branded chips, launched in 2019, were commonly found inside entry-level and ultra-low powered desktops, laptops, mini-PCs, and AIOs.
The original Gemini Lake (GLK) lineup came out in 2017, leveraging Intel's Goldmont Plus microarchitecture. The 14nm low-power chips, which span up to four cores without Hyper-Threading, were the direct replacements for the chipmaker's Apollo Lake processors at the time. However, given Gemini Lake's prevalence in budget-oriented devices, Intel refreshed the lineup in 2019 with moderately improved clock speeds on the 10W and 6W processors.
