Intel Arrow Lake-S Desktop CPU Rumored To Launch In 1H 2024, Will Feature Up To 8+16 Core SKUs On 800-Series Motherboards
Intel's next-generation Arrow Lake-S Desktop CPUs are now rumored to launch in the first half of 2024 in 24 core flavors.
In the latest information published by Benchlife, the tech outlet reports that their sources have pointed out the cancellation of Intel's Meteor Lake-S Desktop CPUs for the 800-series platform. Instead, the platform will be getting the Arrow Lake-S Desktop CPUs which will be accommodated on the 800-series platform comprising the Z890, B860, W880, and Q870 chipset motherboards.
As always, the Z890 and B660 chipsets will target the mainstream consumer segment while the W880 & Q870 chipsets will target the entry-level workstation / commercial segments. There's also an entry-level H810 chipset. The Z890 platform will feature up to 60 HSIO channels (26 CPU + 34 PCH while the B860 and H810 platforms will feature 44 and 32 HSIO channels, respectively. Intel's 800-series platform will also support up to DDR5-6400 memory natively and with 48 GB memory module compatibility.
The 15th Gen Intel Arrow Lake-S Desktop CPUs will bring back the 24 cores that we get on Raptor Lake CPUs today. The Arrow Lake-S top die will utilize up to 24 cores which will be a combination of 8 Performance Cores and 16 Efficiency Cores. Following is the full list of SKUs to expect from the lineup:
The difference with the Arrow Lake-S lineup is that all of the configurations feature the top 24 core die and the only difference is the TDP itself. It is likely that lower core count SKUs will be derived from these dies. Intel also seems to have retained the 4 Xe Cores from the Meteor Lake lineup but we expect these to feature a brand new Arc graphics architecture. The 14th Gen Meteor Lake chips are based on a TSMC 5nm GPU architecture while the
