A desktop processor from Intel's Core Ultra Series 2 family. It has 8 performance and 16 efficient cores, 24 cores and 24 threads in total.

According to Intel, the performance cores run from a 3.7 GHz base up to 5.4 GHz, and the highest single-core turbo speed is 5.5 GHz. The processor fits the FCLGA1851 socket, supports memory up to DDR5-7200 and offers up to 24 PCIe 5.0 and 4.0 lanes. It has no Hyper-Threading; its Intel Graphics has 4 Xe cores and the NPU delivers 13 TOPS (Int8). Intel lists its launch date as the first quarter of 2026.

These are the processor figures Intel publishes. A computer's real speed and temperature behavior depends on the motherboard's power settings and the cooler, and memory speed depends on the installed modules and the motherboard.
