Meet Core Ultra 5 225 — a modern solution from Intel, which saw the light of day :year_text. Thanks to the use of the 3 nm process node, the manufacturer achieved an excellent balance of performance. The chip is installed in the compatible motherboards socket. A hybrid design is employed here: 6 powerful cores handle heavy tasks, while 4 efficiency cores manage background processes. The total number of threads is 10. The base clock speed is 3.3 GHz. Under heavy loads, the frequency can automatically increase up to 4.9 GHz. The processor is equipped with a spacious buffer: the L3 cache memory volume is 20 MB. The processor's base thermal design power (TDP) is stated at 65 W. When power limits are removed or during peak boost (PL2), the chip's appetite increases to 121 W. The gaming performance of Core Ultra 5 225 is at a high level. Architectural improvements and a spacious cache allow the system to rapidly process game engine physics.
