The Intel Core Ultra Series 2 processors are rolling out later in the year, introducing improved performance and better protection against malware.

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 has pulled back the curtain on "Arrow Lake" mobile silicon in the U, H, and HX series for the new year, focusing on increased power profiles and less on AI. Plus: "Lunar Lake" gets vPro.

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

Intel is revving up its AI chip lineup at CES 2025. Today, the company unveiled the Core Ultra 200H chips for "performance thin and light" notebooks, alongside the Core Ultra 200HX chips for mobile gamers who demand powerful discrete GPUs.

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.
