Intel is rumoured to be working on an extensive line-up of 18 SKUs for the Core Ultra 200 series. Intel is expected to make use of two dies, B0 for high-end chips and C0 for the mid-range. Although we were expecting three Core Ultra 9 versions, only two (285K and 275) are mentioned in this report.
According to Jaykihn, all the Core Ultra 9 CPUs will have 4 Xe-Cores for graphics and 24 cores (8P+16E), with clock speeds and TDP variations. Moving to the Core Ultra 7 range, it will offer two variants of the B0 silicon, one with and one without graphics, and the core count will be reduced from 16 to 12 E-cores. Lastly, the Core Ultra 5 line-up is proving to be complex. It is expected to be based on the B0 and C0 dies, with either 14 or 10 cores, and different graphics configurations, 4, 3, 2 or 0 Xe-Cores.

In addition to the line-up, @OneRaichu shared some information on the Core Ultra 9 285K in a weird way. Per the post, the top SKU will be “57/4” and “47/6”, which we interpreted as the P- and E-cores clock speeds. As such, we expect the flagship SKU of the Arrow Lake-S line-up to reach a boost clock speed of 5.7GHz on a single-core and 5.4GHz on all cores. As for the E-cores, a single one should be able to boost up to 4.7GHz, but all-core boost clock speed should be 4.6GHz.
Intel is expected to share more on the Core Ultra 200K series in the following months ahead of a Q4 launch.

KitGuru says: While the Core Ultra 9 and Core Ultra 7 line-ups look more or less streamlined, the same can't be said about the Core Ultra 5 series. Although Intel might have good reasons to do it this way, so many variations falling under the same banner can get complicated quite easily.
