As CES 2025 approaches, many companies are preparing for major announcements, with some already teasing upcoming products. Intel, for example, has quietly started preorders for its new Arrow Lake CPUs, which are expected to compete with some of the top processors available.
Simplify PC fleet management with AI-driven security features and remote management capabilities that support work-from-anywhere flexibility and promote sustainable computing practices, all while delivering the performance needed to keep users satisfied.
Intel China recently revealed that preorders for the Core Ultra 200 non-K CPUs are now open, with availability slated for January 13. These new CPUs are likely non-overclockable versions of the existing Arrow Lake chips, such as the Core Ultra 9 285K. The announcement hints at “new architecture” and “better power consumption,” though details remain sparse.
Currently, the preorders appear to be limited to the Chinese market, with Intel’s global branches remaining silent on the matter. It’s unclear whether these Core Ultra 200 non-K CPUs will launch internationally on January 13 or if their release will be exclusive to China for a while. It’s expected that more information will emerge during CES 2025 next week.
Additionally, a leak reported by VideoCardz suggests that Intel may launch the Arrow Lake-H series, a lineup of laptop CPUs based on the Lion Cove and Skymont architectures, first in China and South Korea. Other regions may follow a month later. These chips will likely pair with Nvidia’s next-gen RTX 50-series graphics cards, while gamers may be more interested in the Arrow Lake HX-series, which has yet to be mentioned. This suggests that Intel may be releasing new CPUs in China before expanding globally. More details are expected during CES 2025.
