"Intel's Arrow Lake-S Outperforms Raptor Lake-S with Impressive Speed Boosts and Enhanced Graphics"
Intel's upcoming Arrow Lake-S client platform is projected to be 6% to 21% faster than the Raptor Lake-S Refresh CPU, with both platforms featuring similar core configurations. The data, obtained from an internal presentation, shows that Arrow Lake-S will have a slightly lower power configuration but is expected to deliver significant performance improvements. Additionally, Arrow Lake-S will feature an Alchemist-based Xe-LPG design with up to 8 Xe Cores, offering over 2.2 times the GPU performance of Raptor Lake's integrated graphics. The report also hints at a different socket for Arrow Lake-S CPUs, potentially requiring cooler upgrades.
