Some new information regarding the Intel LGA 1851 platform which will feature support for the next-gen Arrow Lake Desktop CPUs has been revealed.
We know quite a bit already about Intel's LGA 1851 socket platform but new information or rumors (as I would say) have been revealed by @leaf_hobby (via Videocardz). The leaker starts off by stating that Intel's LGA 1851 socket will last until 2026 so that should cover at least three generations of CPUs starting with Arrow Lake-S CPUs next year if we consider a yearly cadence. A recent report by Benchlfie reveals a 2H 2024 launch plan for Arrow Lake Desktop CPUs which is a year after the 14th Gen Raptor Lake's refresh.
LGA1851は2026年まで続投らしいねー

To quickly summarize the details, the rumors indicate the following features for Intel's LGA 1851 socket and Arrow Lake family:
On the memory compatibility side of things, Intel will be saying goodbye to DDR4 memory entirely and switching to DDR5 only for the LGA 1851 platforms. The platform is said to support faster DDR memory DIMMs (5th Gen) with faster speeds than the DDR5-5600 MT/s supported by existing Intel Raptor Lake (Refresh) CPUs. AMD also supports DDR5 memory only on its brand new AM5 socket & given the decreasing prices of the newer standard, it should be much more affordable and on par with DDR4 a year away from now. You can already find some kits at very decent prices so the value factor of getting a DDR4 motherboard/memory combo is diminishing almost every month now.
As for the CPU family itself, Intel's Arrow Lake-S Desktop CPUs are said to feature a range of titles that include IOE-P Tile, Compute Tile, SOC Tile, and Graphics Tile. This is part of the disaggregated chip design that will first be featured on the 1st Gen "Core Ultra" CPUs codenamed Meteor Lake in the coming months for laptops. The CPUs are said to adopt an additional LLC (Last Level Cache) & which might be the Adamantine Cache that we heard about a while back. There is also said to be a bigger L2 cache per core which is increased from 2 MB to 3 MB.
Benchmarks of an 8+16 configuration have shown up to 21% gain in CPU and over 2x iGPU perf vs Raptor Lake CPUs. These are projected benchmarks and can change by the time of launch. There are reports that the family is going to include a 6+8 and 8+0 configuration but based on previous leaks, we know the following SKU lineup for Arrow Lake-S chips:
For the iGPU side, the Intel Arrow Lake-S Desktop CPUs will be incorporating a refreshed Arc Xe-LPG design based on the Alchemist architecture which will first be featured on Meteor Lake CPUs. This refreshed design might offer higher clocks and some key advantages and will be replaced by the newer Xe2-LPG GPUs featuring

The full specifications of Intel's 14th Gen Raptor Lake Refresh Desktop CPUs have leaked out, covering specs from top to bottom of the stack.
Intel's own microcode has been found to be the culprit causing various "Unsupported CPU" BSOD issues on 13th Gen CPUs & the company is already working on a new microcode.
There was always going to be a certain amount of jank when Starfield launched. It is, after all PC gaming in 2023 and practically every big launch has to have more than its fair share of bugs, crashes, or GPU blowouts. But as a Bethesda game there was always going to be more to it than that. And, while it's certainly not bug-free on other graphics cards, it seems that Intel's Arc GPUs are suffering more than most.
Intel Meteor Lake CPUs aren't just going to make use of AI to make user experiences better but also improve its own internal capabilities.
After 2023’s Warworld, is highly anticipated by DC fans. It is set to continue the Tomorrowverse that began with Superman: Man of Tomorrow in 2020. The film will act as the direct sequel to 2023’s Justice League: Warworld. But when is it coming out?
Intel's 14th Gen Raptor Lake Refresh Desktop CPUs allegedly feature an average 15% price hike over the 13th Gen CPUs, as reported by Momomo_US.
Uranian retailer, Telemart, has listed Intel's 14th Gen Core i9-14900K, Core i7-14700K & Core i5-14600K CPUs on its online site.
Alan Wake 2 promises to be a fairly different game from its predecessor, and that’s a good thing. While the atmosphere and setting of the original Alan Wake in 2010 was certainly ominous and surreal, it’s held back by a rather clunky combat system. Fortunately, the move to a more pure survival horror game with Alan Wake 2 ensures that this won’t be the case again, something developer Remedy confirms with PCGamesN at Gamescom 2023.
MSI has leaked Intel's 14th Gen Raptor Lake Refresh Desktop CPU lineup, basically confirming everything that we knew about the family till now.

What’s it like to be trapped in a hell of your own making? For writer Alan Wake, that’s the story he’s trying to tell. And after watching a full 40-minute demo, played from the perspective of Wake himself, it certainly looks set to be a tale worth telling. Taking place in an area called The Dark Place, this lengthy slice of the story follows Alan as he makes his way through an oppressive and haunting replica of New York City riddled with danger, gunfights, and puzzles. It’s classic survival horror but with the distinct edge of developer Remedy - smart, engrossing, and consistently odd.
