Rumor mill: Intel’s upcoming Arrow Lake-S processors can be accompanied by motherboards that includes 800-series chipsets. Earlier leaks offered some particulars about what the top-of-the-line Z890 chipset will supply, however a brand new report has now revealed further details about the opposite SKUs.
In response to tipster Jaykihn, the complete 800-series lineup will embody at the least 5 completely different chipsets: Z890, W880, Q870, B860, and H810. Amongst these, Z890, B860, and H810 are aimed toward shoppers, whereas W880 targets workstations. Q870, alternatively, is designed for enterprise gadgets. The leak would not point out H870, suggesting it might not initially be a part of the 800-series lineup.
The flagship chipset within the 800-series, the Z890, can be featured in high-end motherboards catering to fanatics and critical avid gamers. These boards are anticipated to supply 60 HSIO lanes, together with 26 from the CPU and 34 from the chipset.
The leaked data additionally signifies that Z890 will assist as much as 48 PCIe lanes, two USB4/TB4 ports, eight DMI Gen4 lanes, 24 PCIe 4.0 lanes, eight SATA III (6 Gbps) ports, 14 USB2 ports, 5 USB 3.2 (20Gbps) ports, 10 USB 3.2 (10Gbps) ports, and 10 USB 3.2 (5Gbps) ports.

Preliminary, however I doubt it will change earlier than launch.
No H810 sku.
These specs are legitimate with Arrow Lake -S.

Most notably, the Z890 chipset is rumored to be the one one supporting CPU IA, BCLK, and reminiscence overclocking. The W880 will reportedly have comparable specs to the Z890 however will solely assist reminiscence overclocking. If this rumor proves true, fanatics could must put money into costly Z890 motherboards to fulfill their overclocking wants.
Relating to the opposite chipsets, the Q870 is rumored to function 44 PCIe lanes, whereas the H810 will solely have 24. Neither chipset will assist reminiscence overclocking. The B860, with 34 PCIe lanes, is alleged to be the one different chipset in addition to Z890 and W880 to assist reminiscence OC. All these chipsets will supply fewer I/O choices in comparison with the top-tier Z890 and W880.
The tipster notes that these specs are preliminary, though he would not anticipate Intel to make important modifications within the remaining merchandise. Moreover, the leaked specs are stated to be particular to the Arrow Lake-S “Core Extremely 200” CPUs and will fluctuate considerably for non-Ok and Xeon processors.
