Intel Ultra 5 225 3.3GHz Processor 10 Core for Socket 1851 in Box with Heatsink

Key features:

  • Microarchitecture Arrow Lake
  • Threads 10
  • Max Frequency 4.9 GHz
  • Cache Memory 20 MB
  • TDP 65 W
  • Includes: Laminar RM2 Cooler
See full description

  • CPU Speed

    The speed at which the processor operates in everyday use.

    During the execution of demanding applications (e.g. games), the frequency may automatically increase up to the Maximum Processor Frequency.

  • Cores

    The natural individual processing units that the processor has. The more cores a processor has, the more efficient it is in running multiple applications simultaneously. For simple use, 4 cores are sufficient, while for gaming and video processing, at least 6 are recommended.

  • Socket

    The processor socket type.

    The motherboard we choose should have the same socket in order for the processor to "fit in".

  • Maximum CPU Speed

    The maximum processor frequency is the frequency that the processor can reach when executing demanding applications that use one core. Generally, when running demanding applications (e.g. games), the frequency can automatically increase up to the Maximum Processor Frequency depending on the number of cores in use. (the fewer cores are active, the closer they can operate to the maximum frequency)

  • Cache Memory

    Cache is a very fast memory that acts as an intermediary between the processor and RAM. It stores data that is frequently useful to the processor for faster access.

Comparison with the Previous Generation

The Intel Core Ultra (series 2) have reduced power consumption by 40% compared to the previous generation Raptor Lake. It provides increased IPC (Instructions per Clock) performance up to 9% on cores and 32% on threads.

Advanced hybrid architecture

The "Compute" tile of the new Intel® Core™ Ultra (series 2) includes two core clusters: the high-performance P cores (Performance) and the low-power E cores (Efficiency), utilizing Intel's innovative "Performance Hybrid Architecture." The P cores (code name Lion Cove) are designed for exceptional performance in single-threaded or lightly-threaded applications. The E cores (code name Skymont) are optimized for lower power consumption and are activated to boost performance in multi-threaded applications, minimizing interruptions from less critical processes. The revolutionary Intel® Thread Director manages and prioritizes the workflows.

Superior Performance

The new P (Performance) and E (Efficiency) cores offer improved IPC (Instructions Per Clock) performance compared to the previous generation. The high-performance Lion Cove cores feature 18x execution ports and 3 MB L2 Cache per core, providing up to 9% higher IPC compared to the previous generation Intel® Core™ P cores. On the other hand, the Skymont cores demonstrate double the L2 Cache bandwidth, have 4 MB L2 Cache per core, and offer up to 32% higher IPC compared to the previous generation E cores (Gracemont) in integer calculations and up to 72% higher IPC in floating-point calculations. Both core clusters (P-core cluster and E-core cluster) have access to up to 36 MB Shared Intel® Smart Cache.

With integrated NPU

The Intel® Core™ Ultra processors (series 2) are the first announced by the company for the desktop platform that feature a specialized Neural Processing Unit (NPU). The NPU integrated into the processor dramatically accelerates Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications and contributes to energy savings. From image processing and video processing with AI to creative AI, streaming, and gaming, the integrated AI capabilities of the Intel® Core™ Ultra processor (series 2) keep you at the cutting edge of technology. The 3rd generation specialized Neural Processing Unit (NPU 3) offers performance up to 13 TOPS in training reasoning and AI inference models.

Xe-LPG architecture graphics

The integrated Intel® Arc™ Graphics processing unit with Xe-LPG architecture features up to 4x Xe-cores and 4x Ray Tracing units and incorporates Xe vector computing engines and a capable Xe Media Engine (supporting video up to 8K @ 60 Hz with 10-bit HDR, VP9, AVC, HEVC, AV1, and SSC encoding capabilities, etc.) while also supporting DirectX® 12 Ultimate and the upscaling technology called XeSS (DP4a instructions are supported). The integrated graphics offer performance of up to 8 TOPS in terms of training and inference of artificial intelligence models (AI Inference).

New Intel 800 Series Chipset

The Intel Core Ultra 200S series processors, combined with the new Intel 800 Series chipset, expand platform compatibility, providing up to 24 PCIe 4.0 lanes, 8 SATA 3.0 ports, and 10 USB 3.2 ports. These capabilities allow users to leverage the most modern connectivity, storage, and other function technologies.

Intel AI Optimization

Allowing faster execution and more efficient resource utilization for demanding AI tasks, it offers up to 50% increased performance.

    it's served me well so far, I've made quite an abundance of computers over the years for myself and others and currently I'm using said CPU in a sun 13L pc with little to no issues. Temperatures have been more than ideal even under multiple hours of stress testing and I've been pleased with the performance in DaVinci resolve/fusion 360. for a new gen CPU I do believe it's some of the best value you can get for a sff workstation without compromising performance or having to change bios settings.

    it's served me well so far, I've made quite an abundance of computers over the years for myself and others and currently I'm using said CPU in a sun 13L pc with little to no issues. Temperatures have been more than ideal even under multiple hours of stress testing and I've been pleased with the performance in DaVinci resolve/fusion 360. for a new gen CPU I do believe it's some of the best value you can get for a sff workstation without compromising performance or having to change bios settings.
