There’s nowhere to install them anyway
Chinese supplier Xianyu suddenly began selling unannounced Intel Arrow Lake processors. And literally for pennies.
Presumably these are old engineering samples that should have been scrapped. How Xianyu got them is unclear, but it doesn’t really matter.
There are no characteristics of this CPU, and it is impossible to check it, since Arrow Lake will use the new LGA 1851 socket, and there are simply no such motherboards on the market yet. However, you can buy such a CPU, remove the cover and take an X-ray to look at the configuration of the blocks. But it’s not a fact that someone will do this, although they sell the CPU for only 14 dollars.
Recall that Arrow Lake-S will switch to the Intel 20A process technology (although this will apparently apply to only one chiplet), will retain the same maximum number of cores as Raptor Lake, but at the same time, judging by According to all data, they will lose Hyper-Threading support for large cores. Such CPUs are expected in the fall.
