PCBench Rating in 2025
Based on comprehensive benchmarks and real-world performance data analyzed by our custom AI algorithm.
AI Summary
The Intel Core Ultra 9 285 delivers a 24‑core, 24‑thread architecture at 65 W, striking a balance between raw power and efficiency. In 1080p gaming it tops ARC Raiders at 200‑220 FPS and stays solid in other titles. Priced at $579, it offers strong value versus higher‑priced Ultra 9 variants, but its lack of full benchmark data leaves a small uncertainty.
Pros
- 24‑core/24‑thread design ideal for multitasking
- 65 W TDP keeps power consumption low
- Competitive price against other high‑end 24‑core CPUs
- Excellent 1080p gaming performance, exceeding 190 FPS in demanding titles
Cons
- Benchmark data for Passmark and Cinebench is missing
- Integrated GPU (64 EU) is modest compared to discrete options
- Thread count lower than comparable price CPUs like the Intel Core i9‑14900F
- Price sits above budget gamers, may be better served by 265K or i9‑14900F for similar performance
