@Alex_Intel_ It is 8P+4LP-E sku. Also the arch is same as Nova Lake. Panther (Coyote) Cove and Arctic Wolf. Could be the 9600X3D or 10600X3D competitor.
@IanCutress@ChipsForge Are the thermal conductivity numbers mentioned about 18A-P related to the heat dissipation of the chip ? Or is it completely different thing.
@Silicon_Fly imo Raptor is a failure of platform design. LGA1700 should have been designed to work with shallow loadlines. Like a max loadline of 0.3mOhm instead of 1.1mOhm, thus avoiding huge peak voltages. It would have helped them shave 50-75mV of additional voltage across the board.
@DreadyBear@lackynamber1234 ARL-R should have been a smaller 6+8 cpu with 48 or 64mb L3 cache. The die size would have been smaller than 90mm2, gaming performance closer to 9800X3D than 7800X3D, while surpassing both in MT.
