Intel's next-gen Nova Lake CPUs will seemingly use a new LGA1954 socket

With Nova Lake, the chip manufacturer once again inserts a new socket. Owners of current LGA-1851 motherboards need to buy a completely new motherboard for a processor upgrade. (Continue reading)

Intel Nova Lake CPUs Set to Debut with New LGA1954 Socket in 2026

Intel is gearing up for a bold leap in its desktop processor lineup with the Nova Lake CPUs, slated for release in 2026. These chips will introduce a brand-new LGA1954 socket, moving away from the LGA1851 platform used by the recently launched Arrow Lake processors. This shift, uncovered through recent shipping records, means PC enthusiasts and builders will need to invest in new motherboards to harness Nova Lake’s power, raising both excitement…

Anyone who thought Intel would give up on the LGA 1851 for at least two or three generations can now laugh heartily—or cry, depending on their investment situation. Because what is currently emerging from leaked shipping data and reference platforms is another chapter in Intel's well-oiled socket rotation. Nova Lake-S, the successor to the rather mixed Arrow Lake-S [...] Source

Intel Nova Lake Rumoured To Use New LGA1954 Socket

Rumours have it that Intel’s next-generation Nova Lake, the successor to the current Arrow Lake desktop CPUs, may introduce a new socket LGA1954 design into the market. If true, this would mark LGA1851 as one of the shortest socket generations the chipmaker has used. For context, the previous platform, socket LGA1200, was used for a total of three generations: Alder Lake, Raptor Lake, and Raptor Lake Refresh. Currently, Arrow Lake uses the LGA18…

Intel's next-gen CPU series "Nova Lake-S" to require new LGA-1954 socket

Next-gen Nova Lake-S processors said to use new socket R.I.P. LGA-1851.  If this rumor is true, it’s really bad news for users of the LGA-1851 platform. Intel launched its 800-series motherboards only in Q3 2024, and it seems that they may support only one generation of processors. Reviewers asked Intel multiple times whether the platform […]
