Finally something new on the ranges of processors Intel desktop? Arrow Lake has every interest in keeping its (many) promises!
If we are still waiting for calendar details, the release of a new generation of processors desktop at Intel before the end of 2024 is no longer in doubt.
A generation which will be based on the Arrow Lake architecture which borrows heavily from Meteor Lake, released last year, but reserved for the world of portable PCs. Arrow Lake will use the new Intel nomenclature.
Arrow Lake-S this fall?
The Raptor Lake processors (released in October 2022) were the 13th generation of Intel desktop processors and the Raptor Lake Refresh (2023) the 14th and final generation.
“ Last » because, remember, Intel took advantage of the launch of Meteor Lake to introduce a new nomenclature for its processors. This has logically only affected mobile processors for the moment, but it was only a matter of time and, with the launch of Arrow Lake, desktop processors will also be affected.
Quoted by our colleagues from VideoCardz, OneRaichu precisely specifies the small names of the first processors in the Arrow Lake-S range knowing that a distinction between “K” and “non-K” models will always be required.
Up to 24 cores/24 threads
Thus, it will first be a question of launching the Core Ultra 9 285K, Core Ultra 7 265K and Core Ultra 5 245K with for the first, the most powerful of the future range, a total of 8 high-performance cores and 16 efficient cores.
A total of 24 cores for a racing beast which will however have to make do with 24 threads, Intel having decided to no longer support HyperThreading technology. These three “K” models should have a TDP of 125 watts while a “non-K” range is also planned for a TDP of 65 watts maximum.
For this second range, we are still only talking about three models for the moment with the Core Ultra 7 275, Core Ultra 5 255 and Core Ultra 5 240. The latter should also exist in Core Ultra 5 240F, a variant without integrated graphics solution . Remember that the difference between the “K” and “non-K” models is the possibility of overclocking the processor.
Everything suggests that the first models of Arrow Lake processors could be released at the end of summer or during the fall of 2024. They will be an opportunity to introduce a new support, the LGA1851 socket and will therefore need new motherboards with Intel 800 chipset.
