Intel appears ready to release Bartlett Lake-S desktop processors for consumers as the chips receive Linux support. These CPUs might help address disappointing performance from Arrow Lake-S products.
The company initially announced Bartlett Lake-S for industrial applications like AI workloads and media processing. Recent moves suggest Intel changed plans quickly. Linux engineers added processor support through an urgent patch. MSI overclocker Toppc mentioned the chip family when discussing AIDA64 compatibility.
Bartlett Lake-S will feature only high-performance cores in its design. The lineup includes 125W 12-core, 65W 10-core, and 45W 8-core models across Core 9, Core 7, and Core 5 series. No Core 3 versions are expected since these target higher performance segments.
The processors will work with existing LGA 1700 motherboards, including 600-series and 700-series boards. This compatibility makes upgrading simple for current Intel users. The company needs stronger products to compete against AMD as market share falls in key regions like China.
