Rocket Lake then brought it to the desktop, but that was still 14 nm, because Intel's 10 nm++ process still couldn't deliver high clock frequencies or the yield needed for desktop products.
It's not until Alder Lake that Intel removed AVX-512 from consumer desktop & laptop platforms, and that was largely seen as a necessary compromise of their decision to go Big.Little. Some people debate whether it was truly necessary, but show me another Big.Little CPU with heterogeneous ISA.
