Alder Lake will be on 10nm right? For some reason they decided to call it Intel 7...

Indeed. There's also the whole "big.little" thing.

Here's their roadmap for future CPUs:

Intel announced just a few days ago that they've teamed up with Microsoft for Alder lake.

Alder lake will be comprised of "Performance" and "Efficient" cores. Intel is calling it a 'Performance Hybrid architecture'. When you need performance for things like gaming, Windows 11 will tell Alder lake to use performance cores. And when you're running something less taxing like a browser, Alder lake will use its efficient cores. This supposedly will result in better overall performance, and lower power consumption. Intel hasn't revealed any benchmarks to back that up though.

The OP and article describe that. There's benchmarks on some of the QC models as well.
