Subscribe to our newsletter Intel has been working on its Wildcat Lake CPUs for a while now, but it's only recently that we've started to get numerous leaks surrounding this family. A couple of weeks ago, we covered the Core 5 304 , which appeared on Geekbench and was twice as fast as its predecessor. Today, an OEM by the name of Advantech has indirectly confirmed specs for three more SKUs as part of the first official, commercially available Wildcat Lake product.

The datasheet provided on the website mentions these chips as options to kit out the MIO-5356 with. They all have the same 2P+4LP-E core layout with 15W TDPs, though it's rumored that they can go up to 25W in PL2. The Core 7 320 and Core 5 320 seemingly carry 32 EUs while the Core 3 305 has 16 EUs for its iGPU.

That's why this series is supposed to be branded under the Core 300 family, just without the "Ultra" moniker. Wildcat Lake is the successor to Twin Lake, which itself was a refresh of Alder Lake-N; both of those only had Gracemont E-cores.

This board also comes with support for up to 64GB of dual-channel DDR5-6400 memory, though the block diagram only shows a single channel (which actually lines up with previous leaks). (Image credit: Advantech) Now, to be clear, prior reports have already revealed the full Wildcat Lake family — we're expecting six SKUs in total — but they weren't seen in a retail product till now, and that signals a launch is due soon. Advantech's datasheet says "preliminary," which means these specs could change between now and then. Regardless of the specifics, it's exciting to see efficient low-power CPUs again that'll likely
