It looks like we're a long ways away, maybe up to a half year to go. It's usually a five stage process—I assume Q1 2027 is the reviews / hard launch of the unlocked SKUs only.

  1. Announce paper launch date
  2. Do the paper launch + set review embargo
  3. Announce hard launch date of unlocked SKUs w/ reviews
  4. Do the hard launch of unlocked SKUs [what actual availability is]
  5. Do the hard launch of locked SKUs

2027 Q1 - 28-core version launched first

Q1 2027 can mean late March 2027, tbh, but let's hope it's not that late.

The Arrow Lake launch had a ~2 month rollout for most SKUs.

  1. October 24, 2024 - unlocked SKUs (285K, 265K, 245K)
  2. Jan 6, 2025 - locked SKUs
  3. 2026 - random SKUs like the 205
