Intel Ready to Launch 14th Gen Core Series

The Chinese media outlet Enthusiastic Citizen (ECSM), Intel is reportedly planning to launch its 14th Gen Core series of CPUs in mid-October. ECSM claims to have access to Intel’s unreleased roadmaps, and they specify that the launch will occur in the 42nd week of this year, which falls between October 17 and October 23.

The launch is expected to follow the usual pattern of splitting Core-K and non-K models, which has been the norm for Intel desktop CPUs in recent years. The non-K models are anticipated to launch in the first week of 2024, possibly coinciding with another CES (Consumer Electronics Show) event.

The 14th Gen Core series is expected to be compatible with existing LGA1700 motherboards that have the latest BIOS, with one exception. The upcoming Core i7-14700K is rumored to feature a new configuration of 8 Performance cores and 12 Efficient cores, which might require a new firmware update for compatibility.

ECSM also mentions the next-generation desktop platform called Arrow Lake, which will bring significant updates to the Intel desktop series, including new designs and a different socket (likely LGA-1851). The report suggests possible motherboard chipsets such as Intel Z890, B860, and H810, with no plans for an H870 chipset this time. This aligns Intel’s consumer Core product naming and platform with AMD’s Ryzen lineup: Core 3/5/7/9 vs. Ryzen 3/5/7/9 and Z890/B860/H810 vs. X670/B650/B620.

It is worth noting that ECSM accurately reported last year that the 13th Gen Core “Raptor Lake” would launch in mid-October after a planned September reveal. If these rumors hold true, it appears that Intel is following a nearly identical yearly update cycle with the 14th Gen Core Refresh.
