Introducing the new processor lineup Lake of the Arrow for desktops is scheduled for October 24, a date that has been postponed almost every week. The main reason, and probably the only one, is that new motherboards compatible with these processors need to be available on the market and apparently it’s a bit late.
These new motherboards 800 Seriesnew take LGA 1851 which will also be, or should be, compatible with the next generation. ASUS and Gigabyte plan to launch a large number of motherboards with the Z890 chip
The well-known leaker of Intel’s desktop Core Ultra 200.
Core Ultra 200 supports up to 9200 MHz of DDR5 memory
What is most striking is that it will be compatible with memory DDR5-9.200 MHz using one DIMM per channel, which means Arrow Lakes has an improved IMC to offer support for faster DDR5 memories. This is a substantial improvement over the manufacturer’s last-gen Z890 Taichi, which was able to offer support for DDR5-7200 MHz memory.
Based on the specifications posted by this user, this is likely a motherboard. microATX Or ATX with 4 memory bays. In addition, it supports Intel XMP, Adaptive Boost Technology and Thermal Velocity Boost, which are standard features of motherboards compatible with Intel processors.
To clear up doubts and know all the specifications of the motherboards compatible with the latest generation of Intel processors, we will have to wait, at least until October 24, the scheduled date for the launch of this new range, as long as it is not delayed further.
Intel avoids repeating mistakes of previous generations
The 13th and 14th generations of Intel processors were a major blow to the company and to the users who blindly trust it, and it may take some time to recover.
Intel does not want this problem to happen again with the next generation and has managed to convince all motherboard manufacturers equipped with the Z890 chip to integrate the Intel Default Power Profile as standard, instead of using profiles that offer higher consumption associated with higher performance and which have been responsible for the stability errors of these processors.
If Intel, instead of blaming motherboard manufacturers, had tried from the beginning to find a solution to this problem, it is very likely that the stability problems that both generations would have had would have remained as a mere anecdote, just like the performance problem that affected the Ryzen 9000 with Windows.
