Intel Core Ultra 9 285: A First Glimpse at the Potential Performance

A recent leak of the Intel Core Ultra 9 285, a CPU expected to arrive with the Arrow Lake family, has sparked excitement in the tech world. While the results of the leaked Geekbench 6 scorecard might seem impressive at first, they also raise a few eyebrows. In this article, we’ll delve into the details and explore what the Core Ultra 9 285’s purported specs and performance could mean for future Intel enthusiasts.

The Leaked Geekbench 6 Results

As seen in a Geekbench 6 benchmark test, the Core Ultra 9 285 runs on an Asus Prime Z890-P motherboard, equipped with an LGA 1851 socket, designed specifically for Arrow Lake processors. According to the benchmark, this 24-core (24-thread) CPU operates at a base clock speed of 2.5 GHz, with a max boost speed of 5.6 GHz.

Here’s a breakdown of the core configuration:

• 8 performance cores
• 16 efficiency cores
• 36MB of L3 cache

The chip is paired with 8GB of DDR5-5600 memory, a system RAM running at a speed of 5600MHz.

A Scoring Anomaly

In Geekbench’s single-core test, the Core Ultra 9 285 scores a respectable 3,081. However, the multi-core result of 14,150 falls short compared to its non-K counterpart, the Core i9-14900. Wccftech, a reputable tech outlet, points out that the latter scores around 17,000 to 18,000 in the same multi-core test. This disparity might be a scoring anomaly or a hint at some unknown issue.

Conclusion

While we await more benchmarking tests and an official release of the Intel Core Ultra 9 285, one thing is certain: its arrival in Q1 2025 will mark an exciting moment in the tech calendar. If you’re an enthusiast or simply keeping up with the latest advancements, it’s essential to stay tuned for further developments and assessments.
