Retail and distributor listings from Europe have revealed new desktop processors from Intel’s Arrow Lake refresh lineup, including previously unannounced Core Ultra 200 Plus models. The listings were first shared by long-time hardware leaker (@momomo_us) and include product names, pricing, and partial technical specifications.
The leaked entries show multiple unlocked SKUs across the Core Ultra 7 and Core Ultra 5 segments already present in retailer databases, complete with boxed retail packaging and finalized part numbers. Among them, the Core Ultra 7 270K Plus appears as a distinct SKU rather than a naming variation, pointing to an expanded refresh lineup instead of a simple rebrand.
Distributor documentation associated with the Core Ultra 7 270K Plus confirms a 24-core, 24-thread configuration, made up of eight performance cores and sixteen efficiency cores. This represents an increase over the Core Ultra 7 265K, which is listed with a lower total core count. The processor is shown with a base clock of approximately 3.7 GHz, a maximum boost frequency of up to 5.6 GHz, and a 65W base power rating. Support for DDR5 memory, PCIe 5.0, and integrated Intel Xe graphics is also listed.
The refresh extends into the Core Ultra 5 tier as well. Listings for the Core Ultra 5 250K Plus indicate an expanded 18-core layout, up from the 14-core configuration used by the Core Ultra 5 245K. While full frequency details for the Ultra 5 Plus models are not consistently shown, the increase in core count aligns with Intel’s past desktop refresh strategy.
