If current stories are to be believed, Intel’s 14th Gen Raptor Lake Refresh CPUs needs to be accessible in October. Intel hasn’t but formally introduced these new CPUs, however a brand new leak has detailed a full vary of SKUs, together with a couple of surprises.
You ought to have a strong notion of the specs for the trio of Okay-series processors by now. Non-Okay fashions specs, then again, had been nonetheless principally unknown up till now. That has modified because of YuuKi-AnS, who has shared what seems to be your entire Raptor Lake Refresh desktop product stack and respective specs. All the information on the desk is predicated on specs for qualification samples, so issues could differ barely in retail samples.

According to the desk, Intel will proceed to make use of solely three totally different dies within the new collection: the B0 die (8P-16E), C0 (8P+8E), and H0 (6P+0E). The desk additionally confirms that solely the Core i7 CPUs will get a rise within the core rely, now that includes 12 E-cores. As for different modifications, the clock speeds of the Core i9, Core i5, and Core i3 CPUs have been elevated barely.
The specs for the Core i5-14400 aren’t clear. The desk reveals that it is likely to be designed with a 6P + 8E configuration or a 6P + 4E configuration, nevertheless it’s unclear which one it finally ends up with. Moreover, Intel can be launching two entry-level chips: the Intel 300 and 300T. Our guess is that these will exchange the present Intel Pentium Gold and Celeron CPUs that belong to the Alder Lake collection.
The reminiscence assist of those chips can be price mentioning. Rumours claimed Raptor Lake Refresh would assist DDR5-6400 natively, however the leaked specs counsel in any other case. As it appears, reminiscence assist on Raptor Lake Refresh stays principally unchanged. All CPUs assist DDR4-3200, however DDR5 compatibility varies from chip to chip. Up to the Core i5-14500 CPUs, they’re restricted to DDR5-4800. Starting with the Core i5-14600 and above, the upcoming CPUs assist DDR5-5600. Lastly, there’s EEC reminiscence assist, which is a bit tough. The Core i9-14900, i7-14700, i5-14600, and i5-14500 CPUs and lettered variants have it, however the F and KF variants don’t. EEC reminiscence can be not supported by any Core i3-14100 and i5-14400 CPUs, however the Intel 300 and Intel 300T do.
KitGuru says: These are nonetheless unofficial specs, so we’ll be holding a watch out for extra leaks and extra data within the weeks forward.
