More information from the preparation phase for the market launch of Intel's new desktop processor generation Arrow Lake is leaking out: a result for the upcoming Core Ultra 7 265KF has appeared in the Geekbench comparison benchmark database. It was tested with the Gigabyte Z890 Aero G motherboard.

According to the data read out, the processor uses eight performance and 12 efficiency cores. They are said to use the same underlying CPU architecture as the upcoming Lunar Lake processors for notebooks – Lion Cove and Skymont. Geekbench does not read out doubled threads, underscoring rumors that Intel is scrapping Hyper-Threading altogether on new processors.

The base clock frequency of the P cores is said to be 3.9 GHz, with individual cores being able to accelerate up to 5.5 GHz via Turbo. Especially considering the moderate Turbo, the single-threading performance looks good, at least in Geekbench 6: the Core Ultra 7 265KF achieves 3219 points there.

For comparison: The Core i7-14700K with 5.6 GHz averages 2947 points. Outliers exceed the 3000 mark. Geekbench gives an average score of 3085 points for the previous desktop model Core i9-14900K with 6 GHz Turbo, but also with entries up to 3400 points.

Preliminary leaks never tell the complete truth, especially as the BIOS settings such as the power limit are unknown. The clock frequencies may also not yet be final. However, the single-threading result gives hope that Arrow Lake will be able to hold its own despite the drop in clock speeds.

In terms of multithreading performance, the Core Ultra 7 265KF's result of 19,433 points is on par with the Core i7-14700K. Geekbench hardly scales with Hyper-Threading; Arrow Lake should therefore have a harder time in other applications.

For desktop PCs, Arrow Lake will be released together with new Z890 mainboards (LGA1851) between October and December 2024. For the top models, chip contract manufacturer TSMC is said to produce the compute dies using 3-nanometer technology.
