Intel Posts its First-party Performance Claims for "Arrow Lake-H" and "Arrow Lake-HX"

[btarunr]

Intel toward the end of its 2025 International CES keynote address presented its first party performance claims for its Core Ultra "Arrow Lake-H" processors for mainstream notebooks, and its Core Ultra "Arrow Lake-HX" processors for enthusiast/gaming notebooks. The 200HX series is practically the desktop Core Ultra 200 "Arrow Lake-S" brought to the mobile platform, where its energy efficiency ensures it loses much less performance in the 45 W to 55 W envelope, than the previous-gen "Raptor Lake-HX" does compared to the "Raptor Lake-S." The processor is shown dominating AMD's Ryzen AI 9 HX300 series processors, as well as competing Qualcomm Snapdragon 84-100 chips in productivity/creator applications. It also leads in gaming performance.

Intel also marketed the Claw as the fastest Gaming handheld. Until I see real numbers a pillar of salt is applied.

intels obsession with mentioning how Qualcomm is not compatible with x86-64 is remarkable. The fear is real.

So intel says performance improvements across the board, random utuber says performance regression across the board.

TBH I'll take random utuber over Intel any day since intel has been scummy for decades.

It was the same when the BR580 was compared to the 7600 without mentioning the 7600XT.

Marketers gotta go marketing.

On the first slide, are they seriously comparing their 150W part to a 65W part?

They do, even 50W Qualcomm CPU is used as baseline.

It is especially hilarious since they had/have the same issues with many titles. I used to think ATI drivers were bad, but now that Intel and Qualcomm joined the fray I have found a newfound appreciation for AMD's work.
