Based on what we know about Arrow Lake-S, the next-gen Intel Desktop CPUs will adopt the Core Ultra 200 naming scheme and initially launch in "K" flavors which would include the Core Ultra 9 285K, Core Ultra 7 265K, and the Core Ultra 5 245K. These CPUs will be accompanied by the Z890 series motherboards which will feature the new LGA 1851 socket.

As for the architecture, Intel's Arrow Lake-S "Core Ultra 200" Desktop CPUs will feature the brand new Lion Cove P-Core and Skymont E-Core architecture. The chips will feature up to four tiles that include Compute Tile, SOC Tile, IO Tile, and Graphics Tile. The GPU side will be powered by the new Alchemist Xe-LPG graphics architecture.

The clock speeds will be set up to 5.7 GHz on the top SKU (Core Ultra 9 285K) and while the TDP limits are said to remain the same (as in 125W PL1 and 253W PL2), the actual power consumption is stated to be 100W lower than the current-gen Raptor Lake CPUs. Jaykihn has also revealed the clocks for several Core Ultra 200 SKUs as shown in the table below:

Recent reports also stated that Arrow Lake-S CPUs won't feature any instability issues like the ones several users are facing with 14th and 13th Gen chips.

With the release set for 10th October, we can expect Intel to share more information about Arrow Lake-S "Core Ultra 200" Desktop CPUs soon. The company hasn't changed the plans for its launches despite its poor financial status and with Lunar Lake headed for launch on the 3rd of September, we can hear a bit more about Arrow Lake Desktop parts around that time.
