It’s been an open secret for months that Intel will replace the LGA1700 socket after Raptor Lake. After initial information on the LGA1851 socket, an Intel website has now confirmed that the launch of the LGA1851 for Meteor Lake is imminent.
Updated on December 13
Tech Magazine computer base have a Sitemap Intel has found some information about the upcoming CPU generation Meteor Lake, Arrow Lake and Lunar Lake. Some text snippets from the HTML code include: “LGA1851-MTL-S interpose“, “Meteor Lake-S DDR5”, “Meteor Lake-M LPDDR5X 6400” and “Meteor Lake-P LPDDR5X 7500”.
Desktop series Meteor Lake-S and two 14th generation notebook CPU series are confirmed, as well RAM support up to 7,500 MHz and new pedestals. The 15th generation, aka Arrow Lake, should also rely on LGA 1851. Next is Lunar Lake, which according to the notebook’s sitemap should offer support for LPDDR5X with 8,500 MHz.
Original post from June 9
After Socket 1151 from 2015, Intel introduced Socket 1200 in 2020 for the tenth Core i generation (Comet Lake). It was then replaced by the Socket 1700 in the twelfth generation (Alder Lake). The 13th generation, aka Raptor Lake, due in 2022, should also be compatible with Socket 1700. In 2023, Intel intends to release the meteorite lake. The 14. Generation Introduces a modular chiplet architecture and apparently a new socket: LGA1851. Information about the LGA1851 has now appeared on Benchlife.info in the form of a graphic believed to be from Intel.
CPU cooler may be compatible
As the name suggests, Intel is back on Land Grid Array (LGA) and it’s coming 151 additional pins added, bringing the total to 1,851 pins. However, the dimensions and pin pitch of 45 × 37.5 mm are identical to LGA1700, so Intel is increasing the density of contacts. CPU coolers compatible with current sockets can therefore probably support LGA1851. However, as per the graphic, the heatspreader height increases 6.73 to 7.4 mm to 6.83 to 7.49 mm, which is probably due to the chiplets stacked on the base die.
Meteor Lake will not be based on Intel 7 production like Alder Lake and Raptor Lake, but Intel 4 manufactures and TSMC manufactures N3 chiplets Both processes should be ready for mass production in the second half of 2022. It is currently unclear when exactly Meteor Lake 2023 will hit the market.
The next socket is expected to follow from 2025
In any case, Intel intends to sell the Aero Lake processor, said to be based on the Intel 20A, in the second half of 2024. A is the unit angstrom (1 Å = 0.1 nm). probably with Lunar LakeThe 16th Core i generation, a new desktop socket is on the agenda for 2025.
