Upcoming Intel Arrow Lake-S and Lunar Lake SKUs revealed through CPU-Z listings

[DragonSlayer101]

What just happened? Recent patch notes revealed the names of several upcoming Arrow Lake-S desktop CPUs and Lunar Lake mobile processors ahead of their official launch. If the information is accurate, the portfolio will consist of at least six Arrow Lake-S SKUs expected to launch in October and eight Lunar Lake models that Intel could unveil in September.

The names of the upcoming CPUs were revealed via patch notes for CPU-Z v2.10, which added support for several new processors from Intel and AMD. Alongside the Arrow Lake-S and Lunar Lake SKUs, the listing also mentioned several Ryzen 9000 Granite Ridge CPUs and Ryzen AI 300 Strix Point APUs.

The Arrow Lake-S lineup is rumored to include at least 13 SKUs at launch. However, the CPU-Z patch notes only listed the names of six models, including pairs of Core Ultra 9, Core Ultra 7, and Core Ultra 5 variants. The lineup is led by the flagship Core Ultra 9 285K, a 24-core chip clocked at up to 5.5GHz. It is also expected to offer up to 36MB of L3 cache and have a 125W TDP.

Here are all the six Arrow Lake-S SKUs listed by CPUID:

• Core Ultra 9 285K
• Core Ultra 9 275
• Core Ultra 7 265K
• Core Ultra 7 255
• Core Ultra 5 245K
• Core Ultra 5 240

The v2.10 patch also added support for at least eight Lunar Lake SKUs, including the flagship Core Ultra 9 288V, rumored to have eight cores and a max boost frequency of up to 5.1GHz. While the CPU-Z listing confirms most of the SKUs revealed through an earlier leak, one SKU conspicuously absent from the list is the Core Ultra 5 238V.

Here's the full Lunar Lake list as revealed by CPUID:

• Core Ultra 9 288V
• Core Ultra 7 268V
• Core Ultra 7 266V
• Core Ultra 7 258V
• Core Ultra 7 256V
• Core Ultra 5 236V
• Core Ultra 5 228V
• Core Ultra 5 226V

Intel is on track to launch its Arrow Lake-S desktop processors in October, while the Lunar Lake-V chips could launch in September. If the unofficial launch time frames are accurate, PCs powered by Intel's latest chips should be available on store shelves by the next holiday season.

Can you imagine Intel at 125W tdp? That's gonna be a train wreck

5.5 Ghz max turbo is 0.5 GHz down from 14900K. Absolutely no chance against Zen5.

Different architecture and IPC is said to be at least 14% higher despite the lower clocks. I have no doubt it will beat Raptor Lake in single thread, but not multithread since it has lost HT ability.

Some of that 14% comes from AVX512 that Raptor missed completely. Zen5 should be faster on ST this time too if predictions are correct.

For MT, I doubt Crap cores will be enough as loss of HT will also give penalty. Intel should be losing on all metrics this time.

I'm not going to form an opinion about something from a rumor. I'll wait until there are benchmarks running the games and programs I actually use before forming an opinion about something I probably won't buy anyway.

officially the i9 14900k had the same tdp.

Also I recommend all to watch Wendel's findings on significant crashes that occurs on Intel platforms across the board. The story is going viral.

My comment of course assumes information is correct. If not, then it's different story.

As for benchmarks, they are pretty useless vs using brains. As you can see from rotting 13900K and 14900K problems. Who would have thought that huge power consumption may have long term effects?

Ah right I forgot tdp doesn't mean anything lol. I better hope for them their chips don't use 300w+. But that means they'll most likely be performing worse unless they had a miracle breakthrough in efficiency.
