New pinout details and I/O information regarding Intel's upcoming Core Ultra 200 series CPUs codenamed Arrow Lake-S and its associated LGA1851 socket have surfaced. Jaykihn0 on X (Twitter) purportedly showed off a complete layout of the LGA1851 socket, along with details surrounding Arrow Lake's I/O configuration for both mobile and desktop processors.
Jay's information reveals that the I/O connectivity for Arrow Lake-S for the desktop barely changes compared to Intel's Arrow Lake-HX processors for mobile. The only change being added to Arrow Lake-S is the addition of one extra USB 2 port to the PCH. Everything else remains the same, including the PCIe 5.0 support, featuring support for a single x16 slot and one x4 M.2 SSD, and the PCIe 4.0 support, which includes a whole host of connectivity such as secondary PCIe slots, Gigabit Ethernet, and SATA ports.
