Review: A great value if you need a strong multi-threaded processor - The Gaming performance is decent, the CPU is stable, and it doesn't run hot or consume a ton of power. In Gaming it beats on and beats out older 14nm Intel processors, and it can go toe to toe with Alder Lake processors. I haven't checked out the performance of the Integrated Graphics, but it is supposedly way better than what Intel had used for years with their Core i desktop processors. Where this processor really shines is with workstation type tasks. Pound for pound and dollar for dollar there isn't a better value. I ran a number of benchmarks such as a few different versions of Cinebench and the benchmark numbers this thing puts out is amazing. The Skymont based E-Cores on these Arrow Lake processors are greatly improved over the Gracemont E-Cores that were used in Raptor Lake and Alder Lake. The reason I bought this is I was forced to buy a motherboard with a 5090, and I decided to upgrade my Daughter's computer which had a Core i9-9900k. I gave her a choice between Intel and AMD Ryzen, and she picked Intel. Since I had a spare motherboard for both platforms, I decided on this processor. The Core Ultra 9 285k would have been nice, but I didn't see a reason to pay almost twice as much for four extra E-Cores and slightly higher clock frequencies. Given a choice for my own system, I probably wouldn't buy one of these unless I needed something cheap for CAD, Premiere Pro, or something that can leverage Quick-Sync. What I dislike the most is not the CPU, but the platform. Intel plans to release Arrow Lake refresh processors for this platform, then they'll ditch it for another socket with Panther/Nova Lake. At least AMD is going to squeeze out Zen 6 for socket AM5. Overall this is a good processor. In some ways it reminds me of the workstation type value the old FX-8150 and FX-8350 brought to the table, but it doesn't have all of the heat and power consumption issues that came with those processors.
Review: The multi-core performance is insane for the money. - This CPU isn't exactly the most efficient thing out there, but the MC performance is far better than anything else for similar money. I've used it for everything in the last year and a half, and it just gets it all done in no time.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great value if you need a strong multi-threaded processor

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The multi-core performance is insane for the money.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fast, stable, cool, and cut Visual Studio compile times in half. Love it.
*by J***E on August 20, 2025*

This CPU is working beautifully for me. I primarily use my PC for programming several applications at once using Visual Studio. Compile times have been cut in half since my last build, from 5 minutes for my largest app to about 2.5 minutes (which includes Dotfuscator EXE encryption, which takes the longest amount of time). Everything in general is just so fast. My 128GB of RAM and PCIe 5.0 drives help with that, too. I haven't had ANY stability problems for the past few weeks since setting up my new build. The CPU stays cool with my CPU cooler and case fans, linked below. It's a fantastic setup and this is a solid CPU.
