CPU Catalog Release Notes: April 2026 Refresh

This CPU Wiki catalog refresh adds new Apple, Qualcomm, AMD, and Intel processors from official vendor sources, including M3 and M4, Snapdragon X, Ryzen AI Max, Ryzen 7 9850X3D, and Core Ultra Plus parts.

This refresh extends the CPU Wiki catalog with newer Apple, Qualcomm, AMD, and Intel parts that were missing from the legacy base dataset. The practical goal is to keep the catalog useful for current search patterns around Apple Silicon, Windows on Arm, Ryzen AI Max systems, Ryzen gaming CPUs, and Core Ultra Plus launches without rewriting the older CSV pipeline.

The data import now includes an official supplemental layer, so newer CPUs can be added from vendor sources and merged into the generated catalog during npm run data:build. For this refresh, that supplemental layer adds Apple M3 and M4 parts, Snapdragon X Elite and X Plus parts, AMD Ryzen AI Max and Ryzen 7 9850X3D entries, and new Intel Core Ultra Plus models.

After the initial add pass, the same refresh also enriched sparse pages with more official fields. That follow-up pass filled in extra Qualcomm platform details like USB4, display support, storage interfaces, and maximum memory, corrected Ryzen AI Max integrated graphics and overall AI throughput fields, and expanded the Intel Core Ultra Plus entries with official core-layout and platform-memory details.

What Was Added

The Apple side of this refresh adds Apple M3 8 Core, Apple M4 10 Core, Apple M4 Pro 14 Core, and Apple M4 Max 16 Core. That closes an obvious gap in the Apple CPU collection and makes the site more useful for users searching recent M-series systems instead of older M1 and M2 only.

The Qualcomm side adds Snapdragon X Elite X1E-84-100, Snapdragon X Elite X1E-80-100, Snapdragon X Elite X1E-78-100, Snapdragon X Plus X1P-66-100, Snapdragon X Plus X1P-64-100, Snapdragon X Plus X1P-46-100, and Snapdragon X Plus X1P-42-100. That strengthens the Qualcomm CPU collection and the broader mobile CPU collection for current Windows on Arm research.

The AMD side now adds Ryzen AI Max 390, Ryzen AI Max+ 392, Ryzen AI Max+ 388, and Ryzen 7 9850X3D. Those entries improve coverage for current Strix Halo systems and the latest X3D desktop search patterns in the AMD CPU collection.

The Intel side adds Core Ultra 7 270K Plus, Core Ultra 5 250K Plus, Core Ultra 5 250KF Plus, and Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus. That closes a new gap around the Intel CPU collection and recent Core Ultra platform launches.

The sparse-page follow-up also upgrades older but still indexable base-catalog entries that previously had only benchmark-derived fields. This pass adds official AMD data to EPYC Embedded 7292P and official Qualcomm platform details to Snapdragon 410 (MSM8916), Snapdragon 450, and APQ8094 / Snapdragon 810 family.

Why This Refresh Happened

Recent Apple and Qualcomm processors have real search demand, but they were underrepresented because the main catalog still depends on an older bulk CSV. That base dataset remains useful for historical breadth, while the new supplemental JSON layer is a better place to land newer official SKUs that matter for present-day search and compare flows.

This is especially important for users who arrive through queries around Apple Silicon generations, Snapdragon X laptops, or general CPUs from the 2020s. Those searches are usually platform-driven, so the catalog needs current family coverage before users even start comparing exact models.

Post-Launch Spec Enrichment

The Qualcomm entries now include a fuller platform view instead of only core counts and clocks. Snapdragon X Elite and Snapdragon X Plus pages now show official memory ceilings, NVMe and UFS storage support, USB4 connectivity, display capabilities, and video-engine coverage sourced from Qualcomm product briefs.

The Ryzen AI Max entries were also tightened up using AMD product pages. Ryzen AI Max+ 392 and Ryzen AI Max+ 388 now use the correct Radeon 8060S integrated graphics data, while the broader AI Max family now includes official configurable TDP, native USB4, PCIe lane counts, maximum memory, display count, and overall AI TOPS details.

The Intel Core Ultra Plus pages now carry more of the platform context that matters on compare pages. The 200S Plus desktop entries list official P-core and E-core layouts, DDR5-7200 memory support, and retail availability timing, while the 290HX Plus mobile entry now includes its 8P plus 16E layout, GPU core count, and NPU throughput.

The next sparse-page pass now also covers older embedded and mobile SoCs that showed up in the audit queue but had almost no useful technical context on-page. That means the affected Qualcomm pages now expose real CPU, GPU, memory, multimedia, connectivity, and security data from official product briefs, while the EPYC Embedded 7292P page now reflects its SP3 platform, DDR4-3200 ECC support, PCIe Gen4 I/O, cache, TDP profile, and embedded-specific features such as NVMe hot plug and NTB.

Where To Browse Next

If you are following the Apple side of this update, start with the Apple CPU collection and then read the Apple Silicon guide for the bigger platform story.

If your interest is Windows on Arm, browse the Qualcomm CPU collection, then pair it with the Qualcomm and Windows on Arm guide and the Windows on Arm CPU list guide.

For newer AMD and Intel launches, browse the AMD CPU collection and Intel CPU collection. If your question is platform-oriented rather than SKU-oriented, the AMD Socket AM5 guide is a good next step.
