A leak may have suggested that Intel’s upcoming Arrow Lake desktop CPUs may not use Hyper-Threading or the AVX512 instruction set
A Intel already has the fifteenth generation of Arrow Lake processors set for the end of 2024, but a new leak may have revealed important changes in the structure of these products. The informant InstLatX64 shared on X (formerly Twitter) what the configurations of one of these CPUs could be, but with a curious detail: without the presence of Hyper-Threading.

As this indicates, the future generation of blue team processors will leave the technology of Hyper-Threading aside. The screenshot shown on the social network suggests that the model in question only has 24 threads. Considering that Arrow Lake would arrive in 8P+16E core configurations; 6P + 16E or 6P + 8E, everything indicates that this leaked model would have 8 Performance cores, 16 Efficiency cores and only one thread per physical core, for a total of 24 threads.
Contrary to what would normally happen in Hyper-Threading Current 14th generationFor example, the 8P+16E core configuration would result in 32 threads. This is because Hyper-Threading technology allows each of these efficiency cores to work on two tasks simultaneously, generating two logical operational cores.

Intel has other solutions
The reasons for the lack of Hyper-Threading are not yet entirely clear. So far, what can be assumed is that this technology will not bring benefits to home users of the future Intel Core Ultra line, forcing the blue team to maintain this technology in other niches, such as the server segment.
It’s worth noting that Intel has invested heavily in Thread Director technology since the launch of Alder Lake, to improve the core to thread ratio in Windows system. In the latest version with Raptor Lake Refresh, the company has launched the APO (Application Optimization)which refines certain games to run better on better cores, improving performance by up to 30%.
Additionally, these new processors may exclude integration with AVX512 instructions, but details are currently unknown. Arrow Lake processors are expected to launch in desktop computers in late 2024.
