Intel Desktop Meteor Lake-S CPUs To Feature Up To 22 Cores, Arrow Lake-S Up To 24 Cores, Quad Xe iGPU Cores & 125W TDPs
Detailed configurations of Intel’s 14th Gen Meteor Lake-S and 15th Gen Arrow Lake-S Desktop CPUs have been leaked, giving us information about the various SKUs, core counts, TDPs & the integrated graphics configuration.
Intel Meteor Lake-S CPUs To Feature 6 Performance Cores, Arrow Lake-S With 8 P-Cores On LGA 1851 Socket
According to an internal Intel chart, the details of their 14th Gen and 15th Gen Desktop CPUs have leaked out. We know from previous reports that Intel is preparing a new socket known as “V” that will offer support for at least two generations of desktop CPUs, the Meteor Lake-S and Arrow Lake-S. This socket will be very similar in dimensions to the existing LGA 1700/1800 socket but will offer more pins and added support for new/enhanced features.
Based on the leaked slides, it looks like Intel’s 14th Gen Meteor Lake-S Desktop CPUs will take a step back and reduce the number of P-Cores while retaining the number of E-Cores. The lineup listed in the charts includes five different SKU configurations with the top variants featuring up to 22 cores in a combination of 6 P-Cores and 16 E-Cores. The P-Cores on the Meteor Lake CPUs are based on the brand-new Redwood Cove architecture while the E-Cores will utilize the Crestmont design. Both of these are new and improved architecture as reported by Coelacanth-Dream a few days back. The full list of configurations includes:
- Meteor Lake-S 22 (6P + 16E) / 4 Xe Cores / 125W TDP
- Meteor Lake-S 22 (6P + 16E) / 4 Xe Cores / 65W TDP
- Meteor Lake-S 22 (6P + 16E) / 4 Xe Cores / 35W TDP
- Meteor Lake-S 14 (6P + 8E) / 4 Xe Cores / 65WTDP
- Meteor Lake-S 14 (6P + 8E) / 4 Xe Cores / 35WTDP
In addition to the SKUs, we also get to learn that all SKUs will feature at least 4 Xe Cores for the iGPU and that’s going to offer 64 Execution Units or 512 ALUs. That’s 2 Xe Cores less than the DG2-powered Arc A310 graphics card which is the lowest-tier discrete board in the family but an integrated GPU with this much capability will be on par or even better than the RDNA 2 iGPU on AMD’s Ryzen 7000 Desktop CPUs. Only the top die configuration will have a 125W “Unlocked” SKU range while the rest will come in the standard “Non-K” and “T” series with 65W and 35W TDPs.
Moving on, we have the 15th Gen Arrow Lake-S Desktop CPUs which will bring back the 24 cores that we get on Raptor Lake CPUs today. The Arrow Lake-S top die will utilize up to 24 cores which will be a combination of 8 Performance Cores and 16 Efficiency Cores. Following is the full list of SKUs to expect from the lineup:
- Arrow Lake-S 24 (8P + 16E) / 4 Xe Cores / 125W TDP
- Arrow Lake-S 24 (8P + 16E) / 4 Xe Cores / 65W TDP
- Arrow Lake-S 24 (8P + 16E) / 4 Xe Cores / 35W TDP
Intel Desktop CPU Core Count Progression:
Family Name | Total Cores | Total Threads | P-Cores | E-Cores | Year |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Sandy Bridge | 4 | 8 | N/A | N/A | 2011 |
Ivy Bridge | 4 | 8 | N/A | N/A | 2012 |
Haswell | 4 | 8 | N/A | N/A | 2013 |
Broadwell | 4 | 8 | N/A | N/A | 2014 |
Skylake | 4 | 8 | N/A | N/A | 2015 |
Kaby Lake | 4 | 8 | N/A | N/A | 2017 |
Coffee Lake | 6 | 12 | N/A | N/A | 2017 |
Coffee Lake Refresh | 8 | 16 | N/A | N/A | 2018 |
Comet Lake | 10 | 20 | N/A | N/A | 2020 |
Rocket Lake | 8 | 16 | N/A | N/A | 2021 |
Alder Lake | 16 | 24 | 8 | 8 | 2021 |
Raptor Lake | 24 | 32 | 8 | 16 | 2022 |
Meteor Lake | 22 | 28 | 6 | 16 | ~2023 |
Arrow Lake | 24 | 32 | 8 | 16 | ~2024 |
The difference with the Arrow Lake-S lineup is that all of the configurations feature the top 24 core die and the only difference is the TDP itself. It is likely that lower core count SKUs will be derived from these dies. Intel also seems to have retained the 4 Xe Cores from the Meteor Lake lineup but we expect these to feature a brand new Arc graphics architecture. The 14th Gen Meteor Lake chips are based on a TSMC 5nm GPU architecture while the 15th Gen Arrow Lake CPUs will utilize a TSMC 3nm graphics architecture, as we reported here.
We can’t say for sure if Intel will retain the number of ALUs and EUs as the existing Alchemist chips on its future integrated GPUs but the Arrow Lake-P parts are expected to offer up to 2560 Xe Cores which is a 5x increase over the integrated GPUs on the desktop parts.
During its recent investors call, Intel said that they are progressing really well on their Intel 4 & Intel 3 products. The 14th Gen Meteor Lake production stepping is scheduled to be delivered this quarter with a volume ramp in 2023 while Intel 3 is also expected to enter the early production phase by the end of 2023. Do note that these are early charts and we are still years away from the launch of Meteor Lake and Arrow Lake CPUs

Seattle Seahawks safety Jamal Adams suffers ‘serious’ quad tendon injury, carted off
SEATTLE — Seahawks safety Jamal Adams was carted off in the second quarter of Monday night’s 17-16 victory over the Denver Broncos with what coach Pete Carroll deemed a serious injury to his left quadriceps tendon.
Adams was hurt after blitzing former teammate Russell Wilson early in the second quarter, delivering pressure and a hit that helped force a third-down incompletion. Adams limped off in obvious pain. After being examined in the medical tent, he was helped onto an injury cart. Adams was visibly upset, at one point appearing to burst out in frustration, as he was driven into the locker room and did not return.
“His quadricep tendon I think got damaged some tonight,” Carroll said. “He got hurt. So it’s a serious injury.”
Adams had three tackles and a pass defensed — which came on a near interception — before his injury. Josh Jones replaced him for the rest of the game. Seattle also has Ryan Neal as a safety option. Neal made four starts in 2020 while Adams was sidelined by a groin injury.
Adams missed a combined nine games over his first two seasons with the Seahawks, including the final five last year after he suffered another torn shoulder labrum that required surgery. He missed time early in training camp this summer after rebreaking the middle finger on his left hand, another injury he has dealt with in the past.
Adams and the Seahawks were hoping that Seattle’s new defense — with its emphasis on split-safety looks — would put him in position for a bounce-back season. He set the NFL’s single-season sack record for a defensive back with 9.5 in 2020, then was held without a sack in 12 games last year before his season-ending shoulder injury.
Speaking last week for the first time since his latest finger injury, Adams said Seattle’s new defense puts him “in position to make plays.”
“I’m back in my element, man,” he said. “I feel like I’m back playing defense.”
The Seahawks acquired Adams from the New York Jets in 2020 for a package that included first-round picks in 2021 and 2022. They signed him to a four-year, $70 million extension last summer that made him the NFL’s highest-paid safety.
Brayden Point quad tear among Tampa Bay Lightning injuries in Final
The Tampa Bay Lightning were playing with one hand tied behind their back, or one leg, in some cases, in the Stanley Cup Final — starting with Brayden Point.
Bolts general manager Julien BriseBois said the All-Star center had a significant quad tear in his leg. He was hurt in Game 7 of the first round against the Leafs and missed 10 games. He returned for Games 1 and 2 of the Final but was a shell of himself and didn’t play again. BriseBois said he’ll be healthy in a couple of weeks.
Point’s injury was one of many for Tampa as they tried to win their third straight Stanley Cup but lost in six games to the Colorado Avalanche.
Fellow star center Nikita Kucherov sustained a sprained MCL in his knee during the Final, likely on a cross-check from Devon Toews in Game 3 that sent him hurtling into the boards. He had a goal and three assists in the Final.
In addition, forward Pierre-Edouard Bellemare already had an MCL injury entering the playoffs. Brandon Hagel took a puck off the foot and suffered a fracture in the second round. Ryan McDonagh played through a mangled finger that was injured in the Eastern Conference finals.
Forwards Anthony Cirelli, Corey Perry and Nick Paul hurt shoulders against the Rangers. And then Cirelli dislocated the other shoulder in the Final. Paul added a sprained MCL against the Avs.
All are supposed to be healthy for next season.
It’s common for hockey players to say that everybody has some kind of injury come playoff time. Avalanche injuries haven’t been disclosed yet, though Colorado played fewer games in the playoffs and had more time to rest and recover.
Japan scrambles jets after Russian, Chinese warplanes near airspace during Quad
TOKYO, May 24 (Reuters) – Japan scrambled jets after Russian and Chinese warplanes neared its airspace on Tuesday, when Tokyo was hosting the leaders of the Quad grouping of countries that includes the United States, Defence Minister Nobuo Kishi said.
Tokyo conveyed “grave concerns” to both Russia and China through diplomatic channels, Kishi said at a news conference that was broadcast online.
He characterised the incident as a likely provocation by both Beijing and Moscow on a day when U.S. President Joe Biden, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Australia’s newly elected leader, Anthony Albanese, were meeting in Tokyo.

“We believe the fact that this action was taken during the Quad summit makes it more provocative than in the past,” he said, adding it was the fourth such incident since November.
Two Chinese warplanes flew over the Sea of Japan from the East China Sea and were then joined by two Russian warplanes for a flight together toward the East China Sea, Kishi said.
Later, the two Chinese warplanes were replaced by another pair believed to be Chinese, which then flew with the Russians on a long flight toward the Pacific Ocean, he said.
A Russian reconnaissance plane also flew over the open sea from the northern island of Hokkaido to the Noto peninsula on Japan’s main island, he said.
None of the aircraft entered into Japan’s airspace, he said.
Russia and China both confirmed they conducted a joint patrol. Russia’s defence ministry said the patrol lasted 13 hours over the Japanese and East China seas.
The exercise was part of an “annual military cooperation plan”, China’s defence ministry said.
Separately, South Korea’s military said it scrambled fighters after at least four Chinese and four Russian warplanes entered its air defence zone on Tuesday. read more
It was not immediately clear if the two events were related or if any of the same warplanes were involved.
The four leaders of the Quad – an informal grouping led by Washington – on Tuesday stressed their determination to ensure a free and open Indo-Pacific region in the face of an increasingly assertive China. read more

What is the Quad? The partnership between the US, Japan, Australia and India explained
The Quad, or Quadrilateral Security Dialogue, is an informal group focused on security that dates back to the early 2000s. It has become more active in recent years as part of efforts to counter China’s reach and territorial claims in the Indo-Pacific.
Here’s what you need to know about the Quad.
How did it form?
The countries shared “fundamental values” such as freedom and democracy, and common strategic interests, he said.
The initiative fell apart in 2008 under intense pressure from China and the threat of economic retaliation, said Cleo Paskal, a non-resident senior fellow for the Indo-Pacific at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies.
But it was revived in 2017 amid renewed concerns about China’s rapid rise as a global superpower and Beijing’s increasingly aggressive foreign policy.
At the time, a senior US official emphasized the Quad was “an unofficial gathering,” but called it “a key and critical format,” adding “we are deepening coordination on a daily basis.”
What does the Quad do?
Though sometimes dubbed by critics as an “Asian NATO,” the Quad is not a formal military alliance — rather, it’s an informal strategic forum, featuring semi-regular summits, information exchanges and military drills.
It does not have the same kind of military agreements seen in NATO, like the concept of collective defense, where an attack on one member is viewed as an attack on all.
“It’s deliberately more amorphous than that, so that it can withstand changes in political decision-making in each of the democracies, and respond in a more diffuse but effective way around things like vaccines or economics,” Paskal said.
Military cooperation has increased in recent years, with Australia joining the other three in the 2020 Malabar naval exercises — the first time all four members had participated in the drills since 2007.
Last September, the US, the United Kingdom and Australia signed a security deal known as AUKUS that will eventually bring nuclear-powered submarines to the region — a move that set off a diplomatic firestorm with France and angered China.
How does China play into this?
The Quad has increasingly been seen as a counterweight to China’s growing reach in the region, with all four nations experiencing turbulent relations with Beijing over the past few years.
The India-China relationship has come under growing strain since May 2020 when troops from both sides were involved in a deadly clash along their disputed Himalayan border.
Australia and China have been involved in a series of trade spats since Canberra called for an independent investigation into the origins of Covid-19, while Japan and China remain at odds over disputed islands in the East China Sea.
The US-China relationship has also steadily deteriorated, exacerbated by a trade war, pandemic finger-pointing and military saber-rattling.
The strategic location of each of the Quad nations — at different corners of the Indo-Pacific and with China in between them — has rattled Beijing, which fears the potential for military encirclement. It has condemned the bloc as an anti-China “clique” that is emblematic of a “poisonous” Cold War mentality.
Exacerbating these tensions, China has reiterated its territorial claims and taken a harder line in response to perceived challenges. In recent years, China has built up its military positions in the South China Sea, despite a UN tribunal dismissing its territorial claims there. It has also ramped up threats against Taiwan — a self-governing island the Chinese Communist Party sees as part of its territory despite never having ruled it — and has sent fighter jets into its air defense identification zone.
“China’s rise is now the global phenomenon that not (only) involves the neighboring nations, but also the safety of maritime security in the South China Sea, Malacca Straits, all the way to the Indian Ocean,” said Ken Jimbo, a professor in the faculty of policy management at Japan’s Keio University.
Still, some onlookers say the agreement makes Australia less safe and threatens to further destabilize the Solomon Islands, where the government’s close relationship with Beijing has already sparked protests.
“What countries are realizing more and more is that the economic investment from China is designed to lead to a weakening of political will within those countries … which brings it more strongly into the Chinese orbit,” said Paskal, from the Foundation for Defense of Democracies.
What are the other major issues?
Other issues that may come up at the summit include the security of Taiwan.
The White House quickly downplayed the comments, saying they don’t reflect a change in US policy.
“If Taiwan falls to China, that breaks the first island chain and compromises Japanese security,” Paskal said. “The fall of Taiwan is a deep security threat to all four Quad partners.”
India has long enjoyed friendly relations and a defense relationship with Moscow; most estimates suggest more than 50% of India’s military equipment comes from Russia. These supplies are vital, given India’s border tensions with both China and Pakistan.
Though India’s position has caused “a significant amount of frustration” among the other three bloc members, Jimbo said “it also reminds us that we do not really have the luxury to lose India from the Quad — so obviously, we are going to pursue what we can agree (on) at this point together with India.”
Stephon Gilmore: I didn’t like how Patriots handled my quad injury
The Panthers play the Patriots this Sunday and that means cornerback Stephon Gilmore will face the team that traded him to Carolina earlier this season.
Gilmore was traded while on the physically unable to perform list due to the torn quad that ended his 2020 season and that injury came up during a conference call with Patriots reporters on Wednesday. The focus of the conversation was how the Patriots responded to the injury.
“I just didn’t like how they handled my situation, my injury. A lot went on with that I didn’t agree with,” Gilmore said, via Mike Reiss of ESPN.com. “Now that I’m here, I’m able to do the things I have to do to get me back ready to where I need to be. I learned a lot there. I have a lot of friends there. A lot of great coaches. I just didn’t like how they handled my situation with my injury.
Gilmore declined to specify what he thinks the Patriots could have done differently and admitted that his desire for a new contract was also an issue that helped lead to his departure from New England. He did not get a new contract with the Panthers upon being traded, but said it is “better for both of us to be in this position and I’m happy I’m back home now.”
Gilmore played his first game with Carolina last weekend and had an interception in the fourth quarter of their 19-13 win over the Falcons.
Giants’ Sterling Shepard injures quad in loss to Chiefs
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Two more bite the dust.
The Giants cannot keep their wide receivers healthy and on the field. They lose some, get a few reinforcements and then others go down and out.
Sterling Shepard was forced out of Monday night’s 20-17 loss to the Chiefs in the second quarter with a quad injury, continuing what has been a frustrating season for the longest-tenured Giants player.
Early in the fourth quarter, rookie Kadarius Toney went into the locker room with a thumb injury. He was able to return.
“Got stepped on,’’ Toney said.
Toney was coming back after missing last week’s win over the Panthers with an ankle injury and said “felt pretty good, getting back.’’
Earlier in the game, Dante Pettis, getting snaps on offense with all the injuries, hurt his shoulder while muffing a punt and was ruled out.
Shepard went down after Daniel Jones threw a pass in his direction and cornerback L’Jarius Sneed was called for pass interference. Shepard stayed down and writhed in pain. He tried to shake off the discomfort on the sideline but was finished for the night with four receptions for 25 yards.
“Tough to see a guy go down,’’ Jones said. “I know how hard he worked to get back.’’
Shepard missed two games earlier this season with a strained hamstring, returned for one game and then re-injured the hamstring and did not play last week. He did not make it through two quarters in his return.
Coach Joe Judge said he was having issues with his headsets, forcing him to burn two timeouts in the first half on offense.
“We were having headset issues, it’s happened in every game we’ve had so far,’’ Judge said. “We deal with the league and they keep giving us different software updates. … Whoever is in charge of it, they better fix it fast, that’s it.’’
When this was becoming a bigger issue during the postgame press conference than he wanted, Judge added “Again, look, I don’t want to make this about stupid headsets. That wasn’t the factor in the game. We got to do other things on our own for us to be successful.’’
Toney was called over by none other than Hall of Fame receiver Randy Moss for a quick pregame meet-and-greet. … The Giants put WR John Ross back on kickoff return, something he never did with the Bengals. There is a need for a return man with C.J. Board on injured reserve. Darnay Holmes got the kickoff to start the second half.
The Giants activated rookie CB Aaron Robinson off the physically unable to perform list, paving the way for the third-round pick to make his NFL debut. Robinson had been sidelined all summer with a core muscle injury and missed all of training camp. He saw action right away as a slot corner.
Also added to the roster for this game: LB Bernardrick McKinney and LB Trent Harris were activated off the practice squad and DB Steven Parker was signed off the practice squad. LB Carter Coughlin, who has had a rough second season, was put on injured reserve.
Chiefs CB DeAndre Baker, a Giants first-round draft pick in 2019, was inactive. Baker started one game and played extensively on defense in Weeks 3 and 4 but was mostly on the bench recently for the Chiefs.
america: At UN General Assembly, Biden presents an America that will forsake war in favour of ceaseless diplomacy
In his first in-person address to the UN General Assembly, Biden acknowledged that the challenges before the world cannot be addressed by force of arms while pledging “an era of relentless diplomacy”.
“The United States will continue to defend itself and its allies against threats, including terrorism, but it would use military power only as a tool of last resort, not the first,” Biden said, asserting that the US military power should not be used “as an answer to every problem we see around the world”.
The US, he added, will be prepared to use force “if it is necessary to defend our vital US national interest, but the mission must be clear and achievable undertaking with informed consent of the American people”, a tacit acknowledgement of the US screw-up in Iraq and Afghanistan over the past two decades.
In rolling back what’s widely seen as Washington’s penchant for ceaseless wars, Biden talked his belief up in vigorous diplomacy, asserting that many of the greatest concerns of today cannot be solved or even addressed through the force of arms. “Bombs cannot defend against the Covid-19, or its future variants… we need a collective act of science and political will,” he said, while pledging to prioritise rebuilding alliances and revitalising partnerships, which he said are essential and central to America’s enduring security and prosperity.
In doing so, he reached out to Washington’s NATO and EU partners who feel undercut by America’s growing Indo-Pacific priorities, even as he spoke of having elevated the Quad partnership among Australia, India, Japan and the United States to take on challenges ranging from health security to climate to emerging technologies.
Biden’s 33-minute address essentially turned America to the pre-Trump days in so far as re-engaging the US on climate change, human rights, and global engagement, all of which the previous President had disdained.
Biden did not explicitly refer to China, but Beijing and its assertive expansionism and depredation were writ between the lines of his address. But even as he talked up Washington’s alliances and partnerships that are transparently aimed at China, Biden maintained that the US is not seeking a new Cold War or dividing the world divided into rigid blocks.
“United States is ready to work with any nation that steps up and pursues peaceful resolution to shared challenges, even if we have intense disagreements, and other areas, because we’ll all suffer the consequences of our failure,” he said.
Report: Victor Oladipo ‘healing beautifully’ from quad surgery, could be cleared by November
It sounds like Miami Heat star Victor Oladipo could return to action sooner than expected.
“I repaired the quad tendon and did it a little differently than [he had] it done before,” Dr. Jonathan Glashow told ESPN. “The quad wasn’t really hooked up. It was torn, and I reattached it. I was amazed he was playing with what he had. I’m very optimistic that I could clear him in six months, by November. I think he’s going to play really well again. … [The surgery] went extremely well, and it’s healing beautifully. I’m confident he’ll play next year.”
The Heat inked Oladipo to a one-year deal this offseason to keep him around for the 2021-22 campaign. It was a high-upside move, and it sounds like the team is going to reap the benefits of his services for almost the entire season.
Oladipo appeared in just four games for Miami during the 2020-21 campaign. Fans didn’t exactly get a fair taste of what the 29-year-old has to offer.
For his career, he has averaged 17.5 points, 4.6 rebounds and 4.0 assists per game. He has shot 43.8 percent from the field and 34.7 percent from deep.
The former first-round pick has been named to two All-Star teams throughout his career. In addition to being a solid offensive player, he is an outstanding defender. He will fit in nicely with a Heat team that features tons of elite defensive players.
