Intel may be cancelling its Arrow Lake "Refresh" desktop CPUs

Citiraj:

Intel has reportedly canceled its Arrow Lake-S Refresh desktop CPU family and will now focus on Nova Lake as the successor to the Core Ultra 200 lineup that's set to arrive in the coming weeks. While the Arrow Lake Refresh series was initially slated for a 2025 launch, Nova Lake is now expected to debut in 2026. Intel is expected to launch new Arrow Lake desktop CPUs in October, alongside compatible Z890 motherboards.

According to Intel's roadmap, these Arrow Lake-S CPUs (S is for desktops, we know, it's confusing) were to be followed by Arrow Lake-S Refresh a year after. Unlike previous "Refresh" families, Arrow Lake-S Refresh was expected to bring larger chips with more cores – up to 8 performance cores and 32 efficiency cores in a single chip (an 8P+32E configuration). However, if the latest rumors are accurate, Intel might keep Arrow Lake-S around for the next two years to compete with Ryzen until Nova Lake arrives in 2026.

Intel explores $5 billion investment offer from Apollo amid market decline

Citiraj:

It seems that beleaguered Intel has finally received some good news. According to reports, US asset management company Apollo Global Management has offered to invest up to $5 billion into Team Blue, which was recently rumored to be an acquisition target for Qualcomm. Apollo has indicated in recent days that it would be willing to make an equity-like investment of up to $5 billion in Intel, reports Bloomberg, citing one of the people familiar with the matter.

Intel's executives are said to be weighing the proposal, adding that talks regarding the deal are in the early stages and may not lead anywhere. The size of Apollo's investment could change, too. Increasing the likelihood of Apollo's investment is its previous relationship with Intel. The firm said earlier this year that it would acquire a 49% equity interest in a joint venture that controls Intel's new manufacturing plant in Ireland for $11 billion.
