Intel started selling the new generation Core Ultra 200, or Arrow Lake-S processors, even before they were released. It is expected that new processors will be released towards the end of 2024. However, the processor was already on sale before it hit the market. Accordingly, in China, Intel Core 200 Arrow Lake-S processor early engineering samples were put on sale at a very affordable price.
Intel Arrow Lake-S processors are on sale! Here is the price
According to the information revealed, early engineering sample processors of Intel Core 200 processors have gone on sale. Accordingly, some sellers in China started selling Arrow Lake-S desktop processors over the internet. The price of the Arrow Lake-S processors on sale is only 14 dollars.
However, these processors are early engineering examples that engineers threw away. In this sense, the frequencies and performances of the processors are well below their potential. Hardware experts who examined the image used for sale in China believe that this is an early engineering processor used six years ago.
Intel has already produced new early engineering processors for Arrow Lake-S processors. In other words, these Arrow Lake-S processor samples on sale may not be very useful. So, what features does the Arrow Lake-S processor stand out with?
Gaming laptops will move forward with the new generation Intel Lunar Lake!
According to new leaked information, there will be a revolution in gaming laptops with the new generation Intel Lunar Lake processor. Here are the details!
Arrow Lake-S processors will be the first processor family with an NPU unit that will increase artificial intelligence performance. In this sense, the processor family has a performance that triples Meteor Lake on the artificial intelligence side. At the same time, Arrow Lake will appear with the 20A process node, which is Intel’s 2 nm fabrication process. Intel will produce dies with three different core configurations for Arrow Lake:
- 24 Cores: 8 performance + 16 efficiency cores
- 22 Cores: 6 performance + 16 efficiency cores
- 20 Cores: 6 performance + 8 efficiency cores
It is also known that the processors will have 20 threads supporting this core structure. Finally, there will be no Hyper-Trading feature for Intel Arrow Lake-2 processors. This Intel technology allows multiple threads to be run on each core. However, estimates are that new processors do not need this technology with their increasing number of cores and threads.
So, what do you think about the performance of Arrow Lake processors, which are sold for $14 in China? We are waiting your comments.
