AI Summary
Intel Core Ultra 7 265K delivers robust 20‑core performance with 5.5 GHz turbo and solid single‑thread scores (Cinebench 2304). At $394 it outperforms older 265 series while matching AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D in gaming at 1080p; ARC Raiders tops 200 fps. Ideal for creators needing multitasking, but 125 W TDP and lack of high‑end GPU limit 4K and future upgrades.
Pros
- 20 cores and 5.5 GHz turbo give excellent multitasking for content creation
- Competitive price beats Intel Core Ultra 7 265 and rivals high‑core models
- Solid 1080p gaming—>190 fps in flagship titles
- Efficient 3 nm process provides strong single‑thread performance
Cons
- 125 W TDP requires robust cooling and higher power consumption
- Limited 4K gaming capability and performance drops with RTX workloads
- Modest integrated GPU forces reliance on a discrete graphics card
- Single‑thread performance trails the premium Intel Core i9‑14900KS
