Intel Arrow Lake Leak Confirms October 10 Announcement Date For Core Ultra 200 CPUs

Intel's Arrow Lake Core Ultra 200 series CPUs have appeared in a number of leaks now, and some benchmarks of the new chips have even started appearing on sites like Geekbench, however, there are still some questions surrounding the launch date of the new CPUs. Previous leaks indicated that the original mid-October launch was pushed back to October 24, and new information from VideoCardz sheds more light on the exact specifics of the launch, with October 24 pegged as the day Arrow Lake reviews and sales will be available to the public.

According to the leak, Intel will host a private media briefing for a select few press outlets and influencers on October 7. This will be followed by the official public announcement on October 10 and the review embargo and official retail launch on October 24. The October 7 event will reportedly feature a keynote from both Robert Hallock, Intel's VP and general manager of Client AI and technical marketing, and Roger Chandler, vice president of enthusiast PC and workstation product marketing.
In addition to the launch date confirmation, the VideoCardz also leaked what it claims will be the first Z890 motherboard, which will launch at the same time as Intel's new CPU series. The board, pictured above, will allegedly be an ASUS ROG Z890 Maximus APEX, which will be a high-end board that looks like it has sizeable heat sinks for VRM thermal management and a plethora or ports on the rear, as well as a debug screen in the top left corner and a number of surface-mounted buttons for entusiasts.

Clearly CPU shown is not 1851. As I recall rumors it only has 2 notches closer near the edges not 4. Awaiting the review then. You should pick your images carefully.

How come we need leaks about upcoming release date that should be less than two weeks away?

It’s a reminder about what’s coming, important day is the 24th when reviews go up.

It’s a ‘leak’ I hate that word, about a date.

well that’s the state of the tech press, intel should make a mention of it on their blog.
“we sent out invitations to the press about our upcoming product…”
and Take control over the narrative

Perhaps they aren't sure if the products will reach the shelves in that time, so for now they're rather not announcing the fixed date, in case they have to postpone the official retail launch?

First, the release date is still three weeks away. Only the announcement ("reveal") is supposed to happen in about a week from now. Secondly, everything is under rather strict NDA so linking to another site that spilled the beans is a way to confirm that *wink* *wink* yes, dear reader, October 10th is really the date of the announcement and *wink* *wink* yes, October 24th is the release/review/end of NDA date.

Like all tech press, TPU already know these dates internally (and have probably been informed weeks ago already) and they have probably also received invitations to the reveal event several weeks ago because you need to plan travel/accommodation etc. in advance.
An editor of German site ComputerBase hinted, as vaguely as he could given the NDA, at having info on an upcoming ARL event back in August. I'm sure that the tech journalists have received their invitations for an October 10th Intel event in their inboxes right about then (~August).

The key here is review embargo on 10/24. Looking forward to TPU's reviews going up against Zen 4 X3D and Zen 5, running 24H2 of course, with all the latest BIOS, chipset drivers, etc.

Best be on the lookout for issues with Intel's boosting algorithm this time around, but all else aside here's hoping there's something to this product lineup. They've got a good opportunity to regain some investor faith and give Zen 5 a sharp kick in the rear.

I'm hoping that they reel power in alongside the performance uplift, help quell the meme that the K models will heat a home.

Intel ,just dont mess it up! If TDP still gonna be high that's a fail! In this cpu/gpu design competition it is all about to deliver the best perf/watt ratio piece of a silicon....as we all know ☺ Do You?

If rumours are true it will use a lot less than cRaptor Lake even if more than Zen 5. All I care about is a tuned performance and power. If 265K can use a solid 25-30% less power than 14700K that'll do me.

I understand 25%-30% less power with the same performance as 14700k or is it just power?
If Intel can pull this of, that would be a neat trick, because, what they have been doing up till now?

New ultra small lithographies are actually more power efficient, but come with new difficulties regarding actually rising performance. This might be more apparent in top of the line desktop CPUs, and Intel might still eek out some performance increase for power limited CPUs, laptop CPUs etc.

Stop the press, "news leak" about a paper launch that was already known..... Time to buy back some more Intel stock

It must feel strange to write news about recent leaks then :)

The mobile parts that show fantastic low power performance and better GPU perf then the 890m are what is truly interesting.

Leaked benchmarks show the 256K a bit faster than 14700K despite lack of SMT. That's a testament to how strong the E cores are. Similar to slightly stronger performance at much less power would be fine by me.

It is on paper and I find it misleading to some degree. We will see how it performs and then give an opinion. Intel likes power and I hope this new CPU is modest about it.
