Intel Core Ultra 3 205 shows up at French retailer with €158 price

Entry-level Arrow Lake for desktops incoming

Intel’s Core Ultra 3 205 desktop CPU has appeared again at French retailer PC21. The page lists Intel part number AT8076806773 as a tray processor for LGA1851 with 15MB cache, priced at €132 before tax and €158 including tax. The listing is marked “sur commande,” with zero units in stock, and the page was updated on March 22, 2026.

The model itself has been floating around for months. Intel has already named Core Ultra 3 205 and 205T in public MDDS documents, while earlier reporting traced the chip back to a South Korean Danawa listing from late 2024. That means the CPU is not new, but the French retailer entry is one of the clearest signs that the part is still moving through distribution.

As for specs, the public retailer and distributor pages confirm 15MB cache, up to 4.90 GHz, and tray packaging, but not the full core layout. Earlier reporting has consistently described Core Ultra 3 205 as an 8-core, 8-thread Arrow Lake desktop chip with 4 Performance cores and 4 Efficient cores.

PC21, Mouser, and Industry Electronics all show the chip as an OEM-style part rather than a standard boxed retail CPU. This may not be a typical DIY launch, but rather something for OEMs/system integrators.
