Earlier in the month, we covered a rumour that Intel was planning on using the Core Ultra 4000 designation for the desktop SKUs, as well as the high-end, high performance mobile CPU models. Now, the same source has seemingly corrected themselves, stating that the naming convention extends across the boards to all mobile SKUs.

Serial leakster Jaykihn made a post on 16 October that the both the H-Series and suffix-less Nova Lake mobile CPUs will go by the new Core Ultra 4000 Series naming convention. While this is a small update, it nevertheless provides us with some insight with Intel’s decision, assuming the rumour turns out to be true, of course.
