Intel is set to launch high-performance Arrow Lake and low-power Lunar Lake later this year, both belonging to the second-generation Core Ultra 200 series. While undergoing a comprehensive process and architecture overhaul, these chips will bid farewell to two traditional skills: Hyper-Threading and AVX-512 instruction sets.
Now, details of the two latest Arrow Lake models have surfaced. One boasts 20 cores and 20 threads, while the other offers an impressive 24 cores and 24 threads, confirming the absence of Hyper-Threading support in both.
Both variants are running at relatively low frequencies, ranging from 2.3 to 3.0 GHz, but it's important to note that these are just engineering samples.
The exposed field shows the term MTL-S, which stands for Meteor Lake-S, the abandoned generation of Intel's Core Ultra desktop CPUs, now making a comeback in the realms of edge computing and embedded systems, featuring the LGA1851 interface.
It appears that Arrow Lake will adopt this new interface, LGA1851, and recently we've also caught a glimpse of its physical form.
Before Lunar Lake, another model was exposed, named Core Ultra 5 234V, with all series ending in the letter V. Arrow Lake continues to use HX, H, and U on the mobile side.
