Arrow Lake desktop processors will feature Thunderbolt 5 master 'Barlow Ridge' with 120 Gbps bandwidth

According to the Intel PPT released by @元城安素-YuuKi_AnS, Intel is ready to provide I/O support for the next generation CPU platform. It is reported that the Arrow Lake desktop processor, expected to be released at the end of the year, will be equipped with a Thunderbolt 5 controller code-named "Barlow Ridge". This means users can expect faster data transfer speeds and improved connection performance. This technology from Intel will provide users with a better computing experience and a more efficient workflow.

Intel Arrow Lake-S desktop processors will provide PCIe Gen5 hardware support without the need to split between discrete PCIe and M.2 PCIe aisle.

In addition, the new generation CPU will provide 20 PCIe Gen5 lanes (Note from this site: GPU is x16, M.2 is x4) and some PCIe Gen4 lanes, including x4 for the next generation Barlow Ridge Thunderbolt 5 controller.

Data shows that Intel Barlow Ridge controller can provide two Type-C interfaces, capable of providing 80 GB/s bidirectional bandwidth and 120 Gbps video signal bandwidth.

Developed based on industry standards such as USB4 V2, DisplayPort 2.1 and PCI Express Gen 4, this controller is fully compatible with previous versions and has a power rating of only 3.25-4W.

The above is the detailed content of Arrow Lake desktop processors will feature Thunderbolt 5 master 'Barlow Ridge' with 120 Gbps bandwidth. For more information, please follow other related articles on the PHP Chinese website!
