AI Summary
At 4.2 GHz base and 5.2 GHz turbo, the Intel Core Ultra 5 245K delivers solid multi‑core throughput (Passmark 43536) while staying power‑hungry at 125 W. It yields ≈190–220 FPS in ARC Raiders and 85–96 FPS in Cyberpunk 2077 at 1080p ultra, making it a good mid‑tier gaming and content‑creator option.
Pros
- 14 cores/threads provide strong single‑ and multi‑core performance
- 125W TDP keeps cooling simple and efficient
- $319 price positions it well against higher‑tier Ultra CPUs
- Integrated Arc Xe‑LPG GPU allows light gaming without an add‑on card
Cons
- Does not match the 20‑core count of Intel Core Ultra 7 265K, limiting extreme workloads
- 1080p ultra gaming stays behind the Intel Core i9‑14900F and AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D in high‑end titles
- Base clock of 4.2 GHz is lower than newer 5 GHz cores, affecting single‑threaded tasks
- Price is slightly higher than the older Ultra 5 245, yet gains are marginal
