125W PL1, 177W PL2, 333W PL4 For 8+16 Core Unlocked SKU

Alleged energy limits of Intel’s Arrow Lake-S Desktop CPU that includes 8 P-Cores and 16 E-Cores have been revealed by Darkmont.

Intel Arrow Lake-S Desktop CPUs With 24 Cores Function 125W PL1, 177W PL2 & 333W PL4 Energy Limits On Unlocked SKUs

As per the leaked chart, we get to see the facility limits of an Intel Arrow Lake-S Desktop CPU. This particular SKU is configured with 8 P-Cores based mostly on the Lion Cove and 16 E-Cores based mostly on the brand new Crestmont architectures for a complete of 24 cores and 32 threads. This is identical configuration that we get on the present flagship, the Core i9-13900K and Core i9-14900K.

The chart states a 125W Baseline energy which is a regular for Intel’s Unlocked CPUs. All Unlocked “Ok” chips have a PL1 ranking of 125W and this particular SKU has a PL2 ranking of 177W. The PL2 ranking is far decrease than what we get on the Core i9-13900K (rated at 253W). That is a 76W or 43% energy discount for PL2. The identical is the case with the PL4 energy restrict which is rated at 333W. The Core i9-13900K has a PL4 restrict of 420W so we’re taking a look at an 87W or 26% discount right here too. The TaU period is retained at 56 seconds whereas the CPU incorporates a 3+2 core design section.

• Intel Raptor Lake 125W (PL1/PL2/PL4) 24 Core SKU – 125W / 253W / 420W
• Intel Arrow Lake 125W (PL1/PL2/PL4) 24 Core SKU – 125W / 177W / 333W

Now all of those energy limits could possibly be solely particular to early engineering samples but when they find yourself within the last design too, that may imply that Arrow Lake-S Desktop CPUs may find yourself being very environment friendly in comparison with present thirteenth and 14th Gen elements that make the most of the Intel 7 (10nm ESF) node. It’s recognized that Intel’s Arrow Lake-S Desktop CPUs might be making use of the brand new 20A course of node on the compute tile so that’s anticipated to offer them a significant effectivity enhance.

As per our earlier leak, the Intel Arrow Lake-S CPU lineup would characteristic the next CPU dies:

• Arrow Lake-S 24 (8P + 16E) / 4 Xe Cores / 125W TDP
• Arrow Lake-S 24 (8P + 16E) / 4 Xe Cores / 65W TDP
• Arrow Lake-S 24 (8P + 16E) / 4 Xe Cores / 35W TDP

Intel Arrow Lake-S Desktop CPUs might be heading to the next-gen LGA 1851 socket featured on 800-series motherboards with the next options:

• LGA 1851 Socket Longevity Deliberate Uptill 2026
• DDR5 Solely Compatibility, No DDR4 Assist
• Kicks off With 800-Sequence Motherboards
• Assist For Up To DDR5-6400 Reminiscence (Native JEDEC)
• Elevated PCIe Gen 5.0 Lanes By way of CPU & PCH
• Arrow Lake-S First Desktop Household Supported
• Arrow Lake-S CPUs characteristic 3 MB L2 Cache Per P-Core
• Arrow Lake-S CPUs characteristic refreshed Alchemist iGPUs
• Arrow Lake-S CPUs characteristic built-in LLC “Adamantine” for GPU Tile
• Arrow Lake-S CPUs characteristic 8+16, 8+0, 6+8 CPU SKUs
• Launching In 2H 2024

The Intel Arrow Lake-S Desktop CPUs are nonetheless a 12 months away from launch and we’d not hear from Intel about them for a number of months previous to the launch. What we all know is that the 14th Gen Raptor Lake Refresh Desktop CPUs are the final household on the LGA 1700 socket after which the corporate will transition to the aforementioned LGA 1851 socketed platforms.
