CPU-Z v2.10 has rolled out, confirming the leaks from the last couple of months regarding Intel's upcoming Core Ultra 200 series "Arrow Lake" CPUs. The new version of CPU-Z details the Core Ultra 9 285K, Core Ultra 9 275, Core Ultra 7 265K, Core Ultra 7 255, Core Ultra 5 245K, and Core Ultra 5 240 processors.

We don't know the CPU core counts of the Arrow Lake-S processors just yet, but we're expecting that the flagship Core Ultra 9 285K processor will roll out with 24 cores (split between 8 x P-Cores and 16 x E-Cores). There will be no Hyper-Threading this time around, so it'll be a 24-core, 24-thread CPU.

In the new CPU-Z v2.10 changelog, we also see support for Intel's fleet of Core Ultra 200V series "Lunar Lake" processors, with the Core Ultra 9 288V, Core Ultra 7 268V, 266V, 258V, 256V, and Core Ultra 236V, 228V, and 2266V processors.

It's not just Intel that gets the CPU-Z update lovin', with CPU competitor AMD and its upcoming Ryzen 9000 series "Granite Ridge" desktop CPUs based on the Zen 5 architecture also teased. CPU-Z v2.10 supports the Ryzen 9 9950X, Ryzen 9 9900X, Ryzen 7 9700X, and Ryzen 5 9600X processors.

AMD's list continues, with its upcoming Ryzen AI 9 HX 375, Ryzen AI 9 365 "Strix Point" APUs, and the Ryzen 9 8945H and Ryzen 7 8845HS "Hawk Point" APUs now supported in CPU-Z v2.10. You can download CPU-Z v2.10 right here.
