Socket LGA1851 What reviewers say Reviewers agree it offers strong multi-threaded performance close to the Core Ultra 9 285K, with much lower power draw and temperatures than Intel's 14th-generation chips. Its weakness is gaming, where it trails the Core i7-14700K and AMD's X3D chips; PCGamesN found it too expensive at launch, while PCMag and KitGuru considered its price reasonable.
