Intel's long-rumored Core Ultra 3 205 CPU finally appears for sale at French retailer — priced at $182, early listing confirms previously-known specs for the chip

The Core Ultra 3 205 is an 8-core chip with 4 performance cores and 4 efficiency cores, part of the Arrow Lake family, branded as the Core Ultra 200S series. It never officially launched despite being listed at several OEMs as a "tray" chip and even being mentioned in Intel's own documents. Its newest spotting is on a French retailer's website where it's only available on order.
