Core Ultra 9 285K and Ultra 5 245K Review: Intel Arrow Lake Debuts

Intel's Arrow Lake-based Core Ultra 200S series processors for high-performance desktop systems have arrived and we've taken them for a spin. [View this email in your browser]( A couple of weeks back, Intel revealed the Core Ultra 200S series of desktop processors, based on the tiled Arrow Lake-S architecture. After a couple of generations of mild refreshes, the new Core Ultra 200S is almost a complete departure from previous-gen Intel desktop processors. Of course, Intel leverages P and E-core designs similar to Lunar Lake – namely Lion Cove and Skymont – but the Core Ultra 200S differs from legacy Intel desktop processors in that it is not a monolithic design and is comprised of 5 disaggregated tiles, similar to Intel’s mobile processors. The Core Ultra 200S also marks the first time an NPU is integrated into a desktop processor.
