Since the release of Intel’s 14th generation Core processors, the entire 14th generation series has failed to deliver satisfactory surprises, which is disappointing. However, unlike the 14th generation, the 15th generation Core, code-named Arrow Lake processor, is exciting. The 15th generation Core is expected to be launched in the second half of this year. Here are some important changes related to the 15th generation processors and 800 series motherboards.
Package and pin count upgrades
One of the most obvious changes to the 15th generation Core processors is the package and pin count upgrades. Changing from the current LGA 1700 to LGA 1851 means that existing motherboards will no longer be compatible and a new motherboard will need to be used.
Only supports DDR5 memory
Compared with the previous codename, the 15th generation Core processor no longer supports DDR4 memory, but has fully switched to DDR5 memory. The existing DDR4 memory will not be used on the 15th generation Core processor. There are consumers who want to upgrade. The memory you purchase needs to be carefully considered.
Updates to large and small core architectures
The 15th generation Core processors continue the large and small core architecture of previous generations, but bring some important updates. The large core uses the Lion Cove architecture, and the small core uses the Skymont architecture, which can bring better performance and performance balance to the processor. In addition, the flagship model will be equipped with 8 large cores and 16 small cores, and be equipped with the latest GT1 Xe-LPG iGPU, which will further improve the overall performance.
The addition of artificial intelligence computing units
The 15th generation Core processor will add an artificial intelligence computing unit for the first time, making the processor more efficient when processing complex computing tasks. Although not all models support this feature, this action shows Intel’s emphasis on and preparation for future computing needs. .
Improvement of IPC performance
Finally, the 15th generation Core processor brings improvements in IPC performance. According to official data, IPC performance has increased by 5%, and multi-threading performance has also increased by 15%, indicating that the processor can process multiple tasks more smoothly at the same time.
Changes to 800 Series Motherboards
800 series motherboards provide powerful support for Intel 15th generation Core processors. The new generation of motherboards uses LGA 1851 as the processor socket standard, and mainstream models include the Z890, mid-range B860 and entry-level H810 series. The motherboard is pre-prepared for future Bluetooth 6.0 and is expected to have a long service life and support future generations of new products. In addition, the 800 series motherboards will have 24 sets of PCI-E 4.0 lanes and multiple M.2 slots, bringing greater scalability and functionality.
It is currently known that Intel’s 15th generation Core processor will be released in the second half of this year, but the specific release time is unknown. There are rumors that its competitor AMD’s next-generation Granite Ridge processor has begun mass production and will be released within the year. It is expected that the release time of new products from both parties will not be long apart.
All in all, Intel’s 15th generation Core processors are more mature and have higher market expectations than previous versions. New products from Intel and AMD will show strong competitiveness, and the market prospects are very eye-catching. With the launch of Intel’s 15th generation Core processors and the arrival of the corresponding 800 series motherboards, the entire market will usher in a new round of technology competition. We will continue to pay attention to its development and bring more relevant news to readers as soon as possible, so stay tuned.
