I've used a 12900k and now a 13900k in my Maximus Hero Z690 board, no issues. Also have a 7950X3D running on a x670e Hero, no issues. Both worked out of box with defaults/XMP/EXPO with 100% stability. I've since tuned both for extra performance, though this is classed as overclocking. Both are...

Yeap, HT is gone. All leaks showed this for over a year.

We'd usually have seen engineering sample leaks of the CPU's and motherboards by now. So far we've seen no ES for desktop CPU's, or motherboards. Something feels off, I think September is highly unlikely. Q1 2025 more likely IMO!

I think the performance impact or lack of windows scheduler support are a big reason Arrow Lake is so delayed. It may not release until Q4, or even 2025!

Details of Arrow Lake model numbers https://videocardz.com/newz/intel-core-ultra-5-240f-arrow-lake-s-cpu-to-use-either-816-or-68-core-tiles "Core Ultra 9 290k" - sounds like a toaster :D Lets hope "290k" is not the PL2 rating :D

Chinese vendor appears to be selling Arrow Lake-S engineering samples for $14...

Lots of the recent news is exaggerated - Intel K CPU's and premium motherboards such as ASUS boards are very stable and a solid choice. If you buy appropriate cooling (360 AIO) a 13th or 14th gen i9 will run perfectly fine at stock. 99.9% of them will also run perfectly fine on "Remove all...

Meanwhile my 7950X3D sips 50-60W in most games and has equal or better gaming performance than 14900KS turbo ninja 9000W edition :cry:

Post the desktop arrow lake engineering sample leaks/benchmarks please, I've not seen any :)

We'd have seen leaks of z890 motherboards and engineering samples/benchmarks if Arrow Lake was launching Q2 or Q3 IMO. Q4 or next year seems much more likely.

Intel Arrow Lake CPUs might not arrive until 2025 – and that could be great news for AMD https://www.techradar.com/computing/cpu/intel-arrow-lake-cpus-might-not-arrive-until-2025-and-that-could-be-great-news-for-amd Not surprised, Intel's first chiplet design for desktop CPU's can't be going...

Mostly LGA1700 are reinforced with a metal back plate, that's not the issue. It's just not flat enough, causing temperature hotspots and of course the bending issues we're seen on some boards.

LGA1700 was a pretty terrible socket to be fair. Having to use contact frames to get decent temperatures is just pure fail. LGA-1851 doesn't bode well as it's even larger!

Intel LGA-1851 socket has been pictured, coming to Core Ultra 200 series later this year https://videocardz.com/newz/intel-lga-1851-socket-has-been-pictured-coming-to-core-ultra-200-series-later-this-year

Holy Necro! Best starting your own thread for this IMO! XMP/EXPO voltage settings are completely fine unless you're manually tuning your memory overclock.

Intel Arrow Lake Now Core Ultra 200 : Everything Else We Know So Far https://www.forbes.com/sites/antonyleather/2024/03/31/intel-arrow-lake-now-core-ultra-200--everything-else-we-know-so-far/ Nice summary of what we know so far :)

Big spikes below 60FPS, making choppy and to me, unplayable. Good news is CPU's with more than 8 cores are cheap, so no reason to cripple yourself with one :)

I'm between 80-100 FPS in Cyberpunk @ 4k, RT max, obviously with DLSS enabled. That's with a 4090 Strix, 7950x3d and 13900k. It runs better on my 13900k, though that's one of the very few games that Intel wins at, the rest AMD is superior. As for areas, Tom's Diner is a good example, try...

There are some games, example Cyberpunk, that are hard to drive @ 4k with RT on max. Literally destroys 8 core CPU's in some areas.

Think you need to chill out, I'm not on trial here, you make it sound like I am :D Personally, I enjoy the feeling of upgrading my boot SSD to one with greater overall performance. Last upgrade I did was from a 980Pro to a 990Pro (both Gen4 drives). There was a small, but noticeable difference...
