Intel is preparing at least twelve Core Ultra 200-series "Arrow Lake-S" desktop processor SKUs for the consumer segment, with more variants possible for the commercial desktop segment in the future. Q4 2024 could see the company debut its first SKUs targeting the PC enthusiast and gamer crowd with as many as five unlocked K or KF series SKUs. These, and finer details such as clock speeds, were revealed in a massive info dump by Jaykihn, a reliable source with Intel leaks. Intel is expected to debut the series later this year with the Core Ultra 9 285K, the Core Ultra 7 265K and 265KF; and the Core Ultra 5 245K and 245KF. The company is skipping a KF SKU for its top Core Ultra 9 part.
As has been consistent for several past generations of Intel processors, the top Core Ultra 9 (formerly Core i9) tier gets Thermal Velocity Boost, Turbo Boost Max 3.0, and classic Turbo Boost 2.0. The 285K maxes out the "Arrow Lake-S" B0 silicon, enabling all 8 "Lion Cove" P-cores, and all 16 "Skymont" E-cores. It comes with a P-core base frequency of 3.70 GHz, and an impressive 3.20 GHz E-core base frequency. The maximum P-core boost frequency achievable for up to two cores is 5.70 GHz, and 3-6 as well as 7-8 cores boost up to 5.40 GHz, making it the all-P-core boost frequency for this chip. The four E-core clusters are assured an all-E-core boost frequency of 4.60 GHz. The iGPU has 64 execution units, and ticks at up to 2.00 GHz.
The Core Ultra 7 265K/KF are supposed to succeed the Core i7-14700K/KF, and lose out on the TVB algorithm. Intel is giving these chips an 8P+12E core configuration. These come with a P-core base frequency of 3.90 GHz, and E-core base frequency of 3.30 GHz. The P-cores boost up to 5.50 GHz for 1-2 cores, and has 5.20 GHz as its all-P-core boost frequency, while the E-cores boost up to 4.60 GHz, same as the 285K/KF.
The Core Ultra 5 245K/KF are successors of the Core i5-14600K/KF, with a 6P+8E core configuration. This time around, Intel isn't recycling older silicon for the lower tiers of the Core Ultra 5 series, so you're assured increased IPC across the lineup. The P-cores of the 245K/KF come with a base frequency of 4.20 GHz, and the E-cores 3.60 GHz, which is the highest in the series. There's no Turbo Boost Max 3.0, and the classic Turbo Boost algorithm boosts up to 2 P-cores to 5.20 GHz, while its all-P-core boost frequency is 5.00 GHz. The E-cores boost up to 4.60 GHz.
There are several non-K/KF SKUs featured in the table, which Intel will likely launch in Q1-2025. These lack CPU overclocking features, and come with generally lower clock speeds than their K/KF siblings, besides lower power values. One SKU that caught our eye is the Core Ultra 5 225/225F. This chip appears to succeed the Core i5-14400/F, and comes with a 6P+4E configuration. The P-cores boost up to 4.90 GHz (up to 4.70 GHz all-P-core), while the E-cores go up to 4.40 GHz. We like how the Core Ultra 5 series isn't cluttered this time around, and you're only choosing between the 245K/KF and the 225/F.
