An MSI overclocker has alleged that the upcoming Intel Arrow Lake processor might be coming as early as Q3 2024 which might be considerably forward of what we have beforehand thought.
As reported by KitGuru, an MSI overclocker named Toppc has dropped hints in regards to the MSI Dragon Occasion in Wuhan, China which is rumored to characteristic info on the “subsequent” platform which is closely imagined to be the socket LGA 1851 desktop processors – Arrow Lake-S (through Chiphell).
Beforehand, it has been rumored that we might not see Intel Arrow Lake till 2025 so the information that the chipset technology might be coming in only a few months is definitely welcome information. This supply additionally corroborates that the Core Extremely 9, Core Extremely 7, and Core Extremely 5 fashions might be unique to DDR5 RAM, as with AMD‘s AM5 socket.
When it comes to what we will count on from the Intel Core Extremely 200 lineup, the flagship of the next-gen CPU technology is believed to be the Extremely 9 285K. In line with Wccftech, it is alleged that this top-end chipset will high out at 5.5 GHz which is down considerably from the 6 GHz of the Intel Core i9-14900K and the 6.2 GHz of the 14900KS.
For reference, that is the identical out-of-the-box velocity because the Alder Lake flagship mannequin, the 12900KS, which debuted over three years in the past. With modifications in structure, going from socket 1700 (Hybrid) over to socket 1851 (Disaggregated), it appears as if Intel is prioritizing effectivity over uncooked energy with its upcoming CPU technology.
A Q3 launch date is feasible, however unlikely
Q3 2024 is between July and September which suggests Intel Arrow Lake may debut wherever from two to 3 months from now. Contemplating the rumors circulating pointing at an end-of-year or early 2025 launch date, we’re leaning extra in the direction of a later quite than sooner launch date, however the Okay variants may come first.
Toppc has been on the cash with leaks and rumors up to now, most notably with the pre-release info surrounding socket AM5 AMD CPUs in 2022 (through Chiphell). That lends credence to the actual fact we will not be ready as lengthy, as MSI’s inner occasions may recommend an earlier launch, however we aren’t satisfied of a summer time launch date at the moment.
It is truthful to say that issues have been turbulent for Arrow Lake. Lately, the pre-release silicon has been accessible on the market illegally in China. Engineering samples are being offered for as little as $14, nevertheless, even when the {hardware} is within the fabrication course of that does not essentially imply will probably be prepared for prime time inside the subsequent three months. We’ll be protecting you up to date on all issues Arrow Lake as they occur.
