Intel Core Ultra PCs for AI-ready performance and smooth gaming

Intel Core Ultra processors deliver impressive innovations. Thanks to a modern manufacturing process, these processors offer high performance per watt, both in applications and in games. Efficiency has been significantly improved compared to the 14th generation. The use of

Efficiency Cores has been refined: Intel Core Ultra processors rely on a combination of Performance Cores for maximum performance and Efficiency Cores for low power consumption—the performance of the Efficiency Cores has been significantly increased compared to the previous generation. In conjunction with Windows 11, these different CPU cores are allocated appropriately to the respective applications and games.

Also improved: Intel Arrow Lake natively supports significantly higher clock speeds for DDR5 memory, up to 6400MHz. In addition to DDR5, the new PCIe 5.0 interface also sets the stage for the future. When paired with motherboards featuring the Z890 chipset, the graphics card has 16x PCIe 5.0 lanes at its disposal, meaning future generations of graphics cards will not face any limitations from the PCIe slots.

With the introduction of the 1851 socket and the corresponding motherboards, you can also look forward to additional features: most motherboards now support the fast Wi-Fi 7 standard, and a 2.5 Gbps LAN port is often included. Thunderbolt 4.0 / USB 4 is also frequently available.

The power delivery stages on many motherboards from our premium partners ASUS, MSI, ASRock, and Gigabyte have also been significantly beefed up to handle the increased power draw of these new PCs and overclocking.
