AIDA64 beta version has supported Intel 14th-generation Core processors

AIDA64, a considerably prevalent tool for hardware information detection, diagnostics, and testing, can essentially identify all relevant content associated with PC hardware. Such software often integrates recognition information prior to the hardware release. The latest 6.88.6441 beta version of AIDA64 has now incorporated support for the Raptor Lake Refresh-S processor.

As per previous reports, Intel plans to launch its 14th-generation Core processors in October of this year. The new processors will be based on the Raptor Lake Refresh architecture, essentially an over-clocked version of the current Raptor Lake processors. It remains uncertain whether the long-hidden DLVR will be revealed. The new processors will bear the name Core i3/i5/i7/i9-14000 series, with the nomenclature for desktop processors largely unchanged from the current standard.

At present, the Raptor Lake Refresh bears substantial resemblance to the Raptor Lake, albeit with anticipated frequencies surpassing 6.0GHz and support for faster DDR5 memory. The trade-off, naturally, will be higher power consumption, likely approaching 300W. Moreover, the emergence of SKUs with 8P+12E configuration may also occur.

In addition to this, the AIDA64 6.88.6441 beta version has also included support for AMD Radeon RX 6550M/6450M graphics cards featuring the Navi 24 GPU. The update has expanded the chipset information for Intel ICX and SPR server processors IMC, added specific sensor information for the Asus Prime H510T2 series and Prime H510TS boards, improved motherboard-specific sensor information for ASRock motherboards, and non-SPD SMBus access has now been disabled on the Dell Vostro 3510.
