The Next-Gen Desktop: Intel Core Ultra 5 225 (Arrow Lake)

Step into the future of computing with the Intel Core Ultra 5 225. Built on the innovative Arrow Lake architecture using TSMC N3B lithography, this desktop processor redefines the mainstream segment by focusing on heterogeneous computing, extreme power efficiency, and integrated Artificial Intelligence capabilities.

Hybrid Performance Engineered for Efficiency:

• 10 Total Cores / 10 Threads: Featuring a powerful combination of 6 Performance-cores (P-cores) boosting up to 4.9 GHz and 4 Efficient-cores (E-cores) boosting up to 4.4 GHz.
• Low Power Consumption: Maintains a manageable 65W Processor Base Power while delivering competitive performance, ideal for efficient desktop builds

• Intel Thread Director: Intelligently assigns tasks to the correct cores to maximize performance and efficiency across different workloads.

   

Triple AI Acceleration (Total 23 Peak TOPS):

• Dedicated Intel AI Boost NPU: The Neural Processing Unit delivers 13 Peak TOPS for sustained, low-power AI tasks like background noise suppression, effects, and Copilot features.

• Integrated Intel Graphics (2 Xe-Cores): Provides an additional 4 Peak TOPS and support for modern video acceleration (H.264, H.265, AV1 Encode/Decode), and up to 8K resolution via DP 2.1 and HDMI 2.1 FRL.

   

• Intel DL Boost on CPU/GPU: Harnesses core performance for complex, bursty AI applications.

Platform Connectivity & Features:

• New FCLGA1851 Socket: Requires a new generation of motherboards (such as Intel 800 Series chipsets like Z890/B860) but maintains mechanical compatibility with LGA 1700 coolers.
• High-Speed I/O: Supports up to DDR5 6400 MT/s memory and provides 24 total PCI Express 5.0 and 4.0 lanes for the fastest GPUs and NVMe storage.
• Intel Thunderbolt 4: Integrated support for versatile, high-speed single-cable connectivity.
