AI Summary
Intel Core Ultra 5 235 offers solid multi‑core performance at $257, with 40166 Passmark and 22689 Cinebench Multi scores. It achieves 125–136 FPS in Silent Hill f at 1080p ultra, making it a good choice for gamers. The 65W TDP and integrated Arc Xe‑LPG graphics keep builds clean, though single‑thread output is lower than Ryzen 9 9950X3D.
Pros
- Excellent price‑to‑performance, scoring 40166 Passmark at only $257.
- Low 65W TDP makes it ideal for small or thermally constrained builds.
- Integrated Arc Xe‑LPG graphics allow 1080p gaming without a dedicated GPU.
- Strong multi‑core power (Cinebench Multi 22689) supports content‑creation workloads.
Cons
- Single‑thread performance falls short of the Ryzen 9 9950X3D (AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D), limiting high‑framerate gaming in CPU‑bound titles.
- 14 cores are fewer than the Ultra 7 265 (20 cores), which may affect future‑proofing.
- At $257, it is still pricier than some 6‑core Ryzen 5 7600X3D offering better single‑threaded gaming.
- Lacks a clear socket designation in specs, potentially complicating compatibility.
