To help combat the heat factor, Intel baked in a new thermal throttling technology called Fast Throttle.
However, it was a quiet release barely even mentioned in the flurry of Raptor Lake coverage.
A per-core thermal throttling approach is different from the typical temperature protection techniques used before.
The result is far more nuanced thermal management.
However, when Raptor Lake launched, Fast Throttle was locked down.
Intel hadn’t exposed any controls for users to configure it manually.
If Jaykihn’s tip is valid, Arrow Lake may offer manual controls right out of the gate.
So, having finer throttling levers like Fast Throttle to squeeze out extra headroom could be huge.
However, some rumors suggest that laptops with the new CPU may not arrive until early 2025.
Jaykihn recently reported that motherboards sporting 800-series chipsets willaccompanythe new chips.
