Subj : Intel Arrow Lake leak suggests processors could arrive sooner tha To : All From : TechnologyDaily Date : Thu May 16 2024 11:15:05 Intel Arrow Lake leak suggests processors could arrive sooner than expected to help fend off threats from AMD, Apple and ARM Date: Thu, 16 May 2024 09:59:23 +0000 Description: Intel Arrow Lake leak spills details on desktop and laptop CPUs and gives us hope that they might arrive before too long. FULL STORY ====================================================================== Intels Arrow Lake CPUs have been the subject of another leak, and weve had a sighting of silicon for desktop PCs and laptops from the next-gen range. Wccftech noticed that leaker Harukaze5719 on X (formerly Twitter) again shared shipping details of some Arrow Lake chips, which will be Intels next-gen Core Ultra 200 line-up.

On the desktop side, the shipment listings include a 24-core Arrow Lake CPU, which would be the flagship with 8 performance cores plus 16 efficiency cores in theory. Theres also a 14-core model, with 6 performance and 8 efficiency cores, and a 6-core chip (all performance cores, with no efficiency cores). With the laptop chips, the spotted CPUs include a 16-core processor (8 performance, 8 efficiency cores) and a chip with 14-cores (6 performance, 8 efficiency cores).

All of those chips line up with previous spillage around Arrow Lake, as you might expect, though we should still be cautious around any leaked info such as this. As noted, though, this is not the first time Harukaze5719 has dropped shipping details such as this, and they are a reliable leaker in the main. Theres a noticeable uptick in Arrow Lake leaks of late, and heres what we take from that: It looks like Intel is on track with these next-gen CPUs. Team Blue has previously said that its Core Ultra 200 range will debut before the year is out , though weve been anticipating a late 2024 arrival in the past (or even the possibility of a slip into 2025 ). However, more recent chatter has been more positive about an earlier launch for Arrow Lake, and the possibility of a Q3 release . Now, as we said at the time, wed be very cautious about reading much into that, but it is an optimistic glimmer of hope for an earlier release and the increasing volume of spillage around Arrow Lake recently does make this eventuality seem a little more realistic. Heres hoping, and its certainly true that Intel needs Arrow Lake to combat AMDs incoming Zen 5 processors it really cant afford to be left relying on Raptor Lake Refresh desktop CPUs to meet the incoming challenge of Ryzen 9000. Team Reds next-gen processors certainly seem on track to arrive soon , perhaps in Q3, and even faster next-gen X3D chips may not be far behind. And of course, on the laptop side of the equation, Intel needs Arrow Lake and next-gen Lunar Lake power-efficient mobile processors to help combat Apples incoming M4 for Macs, and Qualcomms imminent ARM-based Snapdragon X Elite (and Plus) which is already making serious waves. Nvidia may even have an ARM chip thats a threat in the works , too You might also like Leaked plans reveal Intel could release 21 Arrow Lake desktop CPUs this year What is a processor: Your CPU explained in plain terms These are all the best cheap graphics card deals ====================================================================== Link to news story: https://www.techradar.com/computing/cpu/intel-arrow-lake-leak-suggests-process ors-could-arrive-sooner-than-expected-to-help-fend-off-threats-from-amd-apple- and-arm --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 (Linux/64) * Origin: tqwNet Technology News (1337:1/100) .
