Intel Core Ultra 9 285K Processor

Intel Core Ultra 9 285K — Overview

1. Architecture & Design

• Hybrid Core Layout: Combines 8 high-performance “Lion Cove” P-cores with 16 efficient “Skymont” E-cores, totaling 24 cores and 24 threads, with native single-thread mapping (no Hyper-Threading)

  2. Clock Speeds & Cache

  • P-Core Base/Turbo: 3.70 GHz base, up to 5.70 GHz boost

  • E-Core Base/Turbo: 3.20 GHz base, up to 4.60 GHz boost

  • Cache: Generous 40 MB L2 + 36 MB L3 Smart Cache

    3. Performance & Power Efficiency

    • Raw Benchmark Leadership: Tokyo across Cinebench R23 tests—with single-core and multi-core performance topping charts among its peers

    • Power Efficiency: Pulls significantly lower wattage under load (approx. 50–60 W less during gaming, 35–40% lower in productivity workloads) than 14th-gen i9 counterparts. Peak power draw around 260 W vs ~320 W; cooler temperatures (~60–65 °C)
