There’s still a month before users can purchase this CPU, but The CPU has been listed on other retail websites such as Lambdatek And PC-Canada. As for pricing at Shoprbc, it’s roughly in line with what we’ve seen at UK and Canada-based retailers, but we should mention that it’s still early days, so expect “official” retail prices to differ. Therefore, it’s likely that the official MSRP will be closer to this price.
The CPUs are priced based on Raptor Lake chips, but users upgrading from 12th/13th/14th generation processors will need to switch their motherboards from LGA 1700 to LGA 1851. LGA 1851 motherboards will feature 800 chipsets such as the Z890, which will launch alongside Arrow Lake CPUs. The CPU and budget chipset motherboard 800 should be released in early 2025.
