== Release Dates ==
Rocket Lake is expected to be released in Q1 2021.

== Compatibility==
{{empty section}}
Rocket Lake will feature the same LGA1200 socket as Comet Lake. Rocket Lake is backwards compatible with [[Comet Lake]]. Rocket Lake will have new motherboards and a new 500 series chipset. Rocket Lake will not be compatible with Alder Lake.
