Intel Confirms Nova Lake-S Desktop CPUs to Use New LGA1954 Socket
Intel has confirmed that its next-generation desktop processor, Nova Lake-S, will adopt the new LGA1954 socket, replacing the current LGA1851. The new socket will support the upcoming Core Ultra 400 series. Intel's official test tool listing marks the first time the company has linked Nova Lake-S with LGA1954, which will pair with Intel 900-series motherboards.
Intel has confirmed that its next-generation desktop processor, Nova Lake-S, will use the LGA1954 socket. The company will abandon the existing LGA1851 socket in favor of the new LGA1954 socket for the upcoming Core Ultra 400 series processors. Earlier, records of LGA1954 had appeared in shipping manifests, and the socket's design had also been publicly revealed.
Recently, Intel published an internal testing tool on its official website that explicitly associates the LGA1954 socket with Nova Lake-S processors. The product is verification hardware intended primarily for engineering testing and technical support. This marks the first time Intel has officially mentioned Nova Lake-S and LGA1954 together in the same project. When Nova Lake-S processors launch, they will use the LGA1954 platform and be paired with Intel 900-series motherboards.
