Intel’s ‘Arrow Lake’ Laptop Refresh Is Here: Core Ultra 200HX Plus CPUs Target Gaming Gains, More

From PC Mag: We've heard rumors of an "Arrow Lake" CPU refresh for laptops since late last year. Last week, Intel disclosed details about updates to desktop versions of this generation of chips, unveiling three new desktop processors with architectural and software changes under the family name Core Ultra 200S Plus.

Now, it's the laptops' turn.

Intel’s next-generation Core Ultra 200HX Plus mobile-CPU series is here, built for high-performance gaming laptops, content-creation machines, and mobile workstations. With the launch, Intel is adding two new chip models to the brand’s Core Ultra 200HX family. ("HX" is Intel's high-performance classification for CPUs designed for power-user laptops.)

The new announcements include a top-end Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus, accompanied by a Core Ultra 7 270HX Plus. According to Intel, both are “optimized for advanced gaming, streaming, content creation, and workstation use."
