Intel developers are trying to fix the key drawback of the Arrow Lake platform — the memory exchange delay, which worsened the performance of microchips, so you shouldn’t expect a quick presentation of Nova Lake.

As reported by NBN with a link According to a recent investor report posted on Intel Corporation's official website, the next line of processors, Nova Lake, does not appear to hit store shelves before 2026.
As it became known, although the Nova Lake platform is the successor to the previous Arrow Lake series (represented by Intel Core Ultra Series 2 processors), it is unclear whether the new chips will retain the LGA-1851 socket, since Intel is notorious for its tradition of constantly changing the type of sockets, almost every generation. However, if the company's engineers still decide to change the layout, then LGA-1851 will be the shortest-lived platform in the entire history of Intel (the socket has been on sale since October 2024).
Based on the words of one of Intel's directors, Michel Johnston Holthouse, the production of Nova Lake will be partially outsourced, most likely to the Taiwanese microchip manufacturer, TSMC. At the same time, there is no full data regarding the technical characteristics of Nova Lake yet.
