INTEL Core Ultra 9 285K Processor ( 5.7 GHz / 24 Core / 24 Threads )

Features of INTEL Core Ultra 9 285K Processor ( 5.7 GHz / 24 Core / 24 Threads )

Intels latest desktop processors mark a fundamental shift in design thinking. Productised as Core Ultra 200 Series but known to you and me as Arrow Lake, theres heck of a lot thats new.

Then theres the tiled design, bringing together various facets through company-specific Foveros packaging technology. Want more? Arrow Lake is the first Intel desktop CPU to include a dedicated neural processing unit (NPU) for emerging AI tasks, and its DDR5 only to boot.

Todays review focusses on performance delivered by top-stack INTEL Core Ultra 9 285K 9th Generation Processor ( 5.7 GHz / 24 Core / 24 Threads ). Its one of three K-suffixed CPUs available right now, along with a couple of KF models that do the same jobs but bereft of integrated graphics. Following tradition, Intel will doubtless release a full roster of chips come early next year. Its worth me talking you through some of the high-level changes before moving on to all-important benchmark prowess.
