Intel Core Ultra 9 285K Tops PassMark Single-Thread Benchmark
According to the latest PassMark benchmarks, the Intel Core Ultra 9 285K is the highest-performing single-thread CPU. The benchmark king title comes as PassMark's official account on X shared single-threaded performance number, with the upcoming Arrow Lake-S flagship SKU, Intel Core Ultra 9 285K, scoring 5,268 points in single-core results. This is fantastic news for gamers, as games mostly care about single-core performance. This CPU, having 8 P-cores and 16 E-cores, boasts 5.7 GHz P-core boost and 4.6 GHz E-core boost frequencies. The single-core tests put the new SKU at 11% lead compared to the previous-generation Intel Core i9-14900K processor.
However, the multithreaded cases are running more slowly. The PassMark multithreaded results put Intel Core Ultra 9 285K at 46,872 points, which is about 22% slower than the last-generation top SKU. While this may be a disappointment for some, it is partially expected, given that Arrow Lake stops the multithreaded designs in Intel CPU families. From now on, every CPU will be a combination of P and E-Cores, tuned for efficiency or performance depending on the use case. It is also possible that the CPU used inn PassMark's testing was an engineering sample, so until official launch, we have no concrete information about its definitive performance comparison.

Funny, Cisco doesnt need x86 either! Neither does Ford, Costco, or my local water company! x86 is DOOoOOOoOoOooomed!
Msft - promoting Qualcomm ARM over x86, uses GPUs from AMD and Nvidia for Azure, AMD custom x86 still in Xbox ($3 trillion market cap)
Nvda - replacing x86 in servers with homebrew ARM and GPUs ($3.1 trillion market cap)
Goog - uses ARM over x86 for Android in 80% of the world’s smartphones. Uses GPUs over x86 in AI compute servers ($2.1 trillion market cap)
Amzn - replaced x86 with homebrew Graviton ARM in AWS servers ($1.9 trillion market cap)
You were saying?I was listing the top most valued companies in the world with over a trillion market cap. All of them used x86 CPUs at one time or another but have mostly transitioned to ARM and compute GPUs. Their profits have exploded while Intel is losing money.
Microsoft Azure is 99%+ Intel
Google cloud - same
AWS - same
Nvidia - guess what all their employees use, and what their Cadence simulation systems run on.
Facebok - Intel made custom x86
etc…etc…etc…
