Intel · Core Ultra 9 · 2024 · LGA1851
The Intel Core Ultra 9 285K is a desktop processor with 24 cores (8 Performance-cores and 16 Efficiency-cores), released in 2024 at an MSRP of $589. It is part of the Core Ultra 9 lineup, using the 200 Series platform, and fits the LGA1851 socket. Internally, it is built on the "Arrow Lake" architecture. Only the 8 P-cores support Hyper-Threading, while the 16 E-cores handle a single thread each, together yielding 24 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 9 285K has a base clock of 3.7 GHz and can boost up to 5.7 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 DDR4/DDR5 memory. With a TDP of 125W, the Core Ultra 9 285K sits in a typical power envelope for a modern desktop CPU. Integrated graphics are provided by the Intel Graphics 2000 solution, so a discrete GPU is not required for display output. The cache hierarchy consists of 80KB/core of L1, 40MB of L2, and 36MB of L3 cache.
Arrow Lake — P-cores have no Hyper-Threading, hence 24 cores = 24 threads
