Intel has clarified its PC platform roadmap for the next several years, covering Nova Lake, Razor Lake, Titan Lake, and Moon Lake. The company aims to deliver these products as scheduled without further delays. This update includes the addition of Arrow Lake Refresh to the Q1 2026 roadmap.
Nova Lake desktop processors will support up to 52 cores and 288MB of cache. Mobile variants will feature a maximum of 28 cores. The architecture combines Coyote Cove performance cores with Arctic Wolf efficiency cores. Wildcat Lake targets entry-level devices with a 2P+4E six-core design.
Nova Lake is expected to arrive in the second half of 2024. Arrow Lake Refresh will launch globally in Q1 2026. Razor Lake is planned for Q4 2027 and will be pin-compatible with Nova Lake. Titan Lake is scheduled for late 2028 and may feature a unified Copper Shark core design. Moon Lake will serve as Intel's next pure E-core architecture for low-cost platforms.
Intel stated that AI currently accounts for approximately 60% of its business. The company is adjusting its processor lineup to support growing data center and client AI workloads. Titan Lake rumors suggest a potential collaboration with Nvidia using GPU chiplets, though this remains unconfirmed. The shift toward pure E-core designs for Moon Lake highlights a focus on efficiency for specific market segments.
