seems Intel is cancelling Arrow Lake Refresh too.

this is in addition to all the CPU that Royal Core was linked too, which is weird as Nova Lake is Royal Core and appears to be the only CPU Intel will release in the next 2+ years.

it seems Intel is snowballing out of control.

Intel allegedly cancels another future desktop CPU architecture

According to a rumor that has just surfaced, Intel has reportedly canceled a desktop CPU architecture that was rumored to launch late next year. Assuming this to be true, Intel Arrow Lake CPUs will now be the only chips from Team Blue against AMD's offerings till 2026.

Wonder if Bartlett Lake will also face the Axe.

 

[Marzipan]

oh, should also mention that the cancellations only affect Intel's desktop solutions currently.

Interesting. I went looking for any other info on the subject.

Arrow lake refresh was supposedly lined up for enthusiast mobile "HX" parts as well (so that would be affected).

Intel's 8P+32E "Arrow Lake Refresh" Rumored Cancelled

Intel's new 8P+16E "Arrow Lake" silicon powers not just the company's upcoming Socket LGA1851 desktop processors as the "Arrow Lake-S," but also its enthusiast mobile processors, as the "Arrow Lake-HX." The company is debuting this silicon later this year with the Core Ultra 200-series, which...

This also means that only arrow lake is currently scheduled on socket 1851. We will see if they make something else on the roadmap...

I wonder if this is more related to the power issues and such happening, or if instead of becoming 10nm++++++++ like they did with 14nm+++++++ they are just deciding to not bother. Would be interesting to hear the inside conversations that reasoned out the cancelations.

 

[Shadowarez]

maybe they don't have the cash flow like they thought and don't want to take the risk again since last few risks didn't pay out like they'd hoped. i mean they eventually got past 14nm then 10nm but the diagrams looked atrocious they had to mix n match 14nm 10 nm back port tech from other designs. im still hoping Bartlett lake is still coming all P core no HT id be on that as long as i was with x299 - 7980Xe lol.

@shadowar ARL drops HT...all cores will be single threaded.

absolutely agree. I am positive it is all cost saving measures and re-focusing priorities, but it would be great to hear the specific reasonings for each cut
