Intel's newly announced Core Ultra CPUs bring improved performance and AI capabilities to both laptops and desktops at CES this year.

The new Core Ultra 200HX series will be targeted at gaming laptops and should deliver around 5 percent better single-thread performance and 20 percent multithread performance improvements over previous Raptor Lake-H Refresh processors.

Intel’s Core Ultra 200H and 200HX processors represent a bold leap forward for mobile gaming and content creation, setting a new benchmark for performance and efficiency.

The company's typical slew of CES announcements made answering "Which do you want?" more difficult than usual.

So far, we’ve seen Intel Core Ultra 200V impress in thin and light laptops like the Asus Zenbook S14. And now at CES 2025, Intel is taking it to the next level with the debut of 200U for budget-end systems, 200HX for bleeding edge gaming systems, and 200H for a nice middle ground.

The Core Ultra 200 series now encompasses a broader spectrum of processors, with Arrow Lake serving as the foundation for most of the new chips. This

Intel showcases its Core Ultra 200 series of processors with performance enhancements for AI PCs and edge computing at CES 2025.

On Monday, Intel published a list of its mainstream Core Ultra 200S processors for desktop PCs. The family of non-K Core Ultra 200S "Arrow Lake-S" CPUs with 65W and 35W processor base power includes 11 models, which will join six Core Ultra 200K processors that have already been available for a quarter.

We evaluate the performance of the new Intel Core Ultra 9 285K processor with some video games using our own benchmark.

There are a total of 11 new Core Ultra 200HX processors. As far as their design is concerned, they’re nearly identical to the Core Ultra 200S desktop processors that Intel debuted last year. The difference is that the company traded off some performance for lower power usage and a more compact form factor.
