AIDA64 Beta Detects Intel Core Ultra 5/7/9 4xxx Series for Nova Lake-S

Software users monitoring hardware detection will notice a change in how upcoming Intel processors are identified. AIDA64 beta 8.40.8510 now recognizes Intel's next-generation Nova Lake-S desktop chips under a new naming convention. This update matters because it aligns the software's detection with leaked model numbers before Intel makes an official announcement. Readers relying on system information tools will see these new identifiers immediately upon updating.

Beta 8.40.8510 identifies next-gen Intel chips and adds PSU sensor support

FinalWire released this beta version to improve compatibility with emerging hardware platforms. The software explicitly lists support for the Intel Core Ultra 5, 7, and 9 4xxx Series. This naming scheme directly links the four-digit model numbers to the Nova Lake-S architecture. The update ensures that diagnostic tools can accurately report the specific processor generation being used.

Beyond CPU detection, the beta introduces sensor support for specific power supply units. Users can now monitor the ASUS Eurux GR120 and the Corsair HXi Shift power supplies. The release also adds GPU sensor support for the ASUS ROG Astral RTX 5090 32G-PF. These additions expand the range of hardware components that AIDA64 can read data from.

Intel has not yet formally confirmed the Core Ultra 4000 branding for the Nova Lake-S platform. The AIDA64 detection aligns with recent leaks but does not constitute an official product announcement. We noted similar balance and stability themes in the last AIDA64 update when covering previous hardware support. This beta focuses on expanding hardware recognition rather than introducing major new features.

The beta version is available for testing by users who need early detection of next-generation Intel chips. The software now provides a clear link between the Nova Lake-S architecture and the Core Ultra 4xxx naming. Sensor support for specific ASUS and Corsair hardware allows for more detailed system monitoring. The update remains a beta release, so users should expect potential instability during testing.
