Not only Arrow Lake does not have AVX10, but even Panther Lake, the 2025/2026 Intel CPU does not have it.

Panther Lake will introduce FRED (Flexible Return and Event Delivery) a new manner of handling interrupts, exceptions and system calls.

FRED will bring tremendous changes to the operating system kernels, but it will have little influence on user programs, except that the computer will spend less time running OS kernel code than now.

For now it is expected that Intel will introduce AVX10 in its consumer CPUs only in Nova Lake, the Intel 2026/2027 CPU.

Meanwhile, AMD Zen 4 and Zen 5 are already happily supporting AVX10, except for implementing the CPUID AVX10 flags. AVX10.1 differs from AVX-512 only by adding a simpler method for identifying which instructions are supported. AVX10.2 will add only some instructions that are not needed on the CPUs that support the 512-bit AVX-512 instructions, like Zen 4 and Zen 5. AVX10.3 has not been defined yet and it is far in the future.




Thanks for nerd snipping me into FRED! :)
