Overview

The Intel Core Ultra 5 235 is a desktop processor with 14 cores (6 Performance-cores and 8 Efficiency-cores), released in 2025 at an MSRP of $249. It is part of the Core Ultra 5 lineup, using the 200 Series platform, and fits the LGA1851 socket. Internally, it is built on the "Arrow Lake" architecture. Only the 6 P-cores support Hyper-Threading, while the 8 E-cores handle a single thread each, together yielding 14 threads: the P-cores tackle latency-sensitive and lightly-threaded work, while the E-cores take on background and highly parallel tasks. The Core Ultra 5 235 has a base clock of 4.1 GHz and can boost up to 5.1 GHz depending on workload and thermal headroom. Intel manufactures the "Arrow Lake" silicon on a Intel 3 process node. Its multiplier is locked, so any overclocking has to come from raising the base clock rather than the multiplier. This processor supports DDR5 memory. With a TDP of 65W, the Core Ultra 5 235 is an efficient chip suitable for modest cooling solutions. Integrated graphics are provided by the Intel Graphics 1500 solution, so a discrete GPU is not required for display output. The cache hierarchy consists of 80KB/core of L1, 26MB of L2, and 24MB of L3 cache.

65W non-K. 3 Xe GPU cores vs 4 on the 245K.
