Intel · Core Ultra 5 · 2024 · LGA1851

Overview

The Intel Core Ultra 5 245KF is a desktop processor with 14 cores (6 Performance-cores and 8 Efficiency-cores), released in 2024 at an MSRP of $294. 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 245KF has a base clock of 4.2 GHz and can boost up to 5.2 GHz depending on workload and thermal headroom. Intel manufactures the "Arrow Lake" silicon on a Intel 3 process node. The multiplier is unlocked, making overclocking straightforward. This processor supports DDR5 memory. With a TDP of 125W, the Core Ultra 5 245KF sits in a typical power envelope for a modern desktop CPU. This processor has no integrated graphics — a discrete GPU is required. The cache hierarchy consists of 80KB/core of L1, 26MB of L2, and 24MB of L3 cache.

KF variant — no integrated graphics. Otherwise identical to 245K.
