Beats Its Predecessor By 34.38% Thread For Thread!

Story Highlight
  • Intel’s upcoming next-gen CPU details have surfaced online.
  • The CPU seems to be as fast as the i9-14900K in performance. 
  • The upcoming Intel Core Ultra 7 265KF beats its predecessor by a 34.38% thread for thread.

The details of the Intel Upcoming next-gen CPU Core Ultra 7 265KF have been leaked. This is the first CPU from the Arrow Lake-S series to be leaked. The leak shows that this mid-range CPU appears in V-Ray 6. It performs well against the current high-end Intel CPU Core 14.

The Intel Core Ultra 7 265 KF is a mid-range dark silicon SoC equipped with 8 p-cores and 12 e-cores. The CPU’s thread count is 20, as the Loin Cove and Skymont architectures do not support hyperthreading.

The Intel Core Ultra 7 265KF is to replace its predecessor i7 i7-14700KF, but we also have performance results with i9-14900 and 14900k for comparison.

Why it matters: Intel’s latest chips are expected to come with a slew of changes, leading to excitement within the community.

Intel Core Ultra 7 265KF and V Ray 6
CPU Benchmarks

Now, compared to i7-14700KF, the new Core Ultra 7 265KF beats it with its 20 cores and 28 threads, scoring 34,529 points vs 33,153 points. In other words, the Core 14 is 4.15% faster than the Core Ultra, although it has 8 more threads. The Core Ultra 7 receives 1,657 points per thread, whereas the i7 receives 1,233 points.

In conclusion, the new Core Ultra 7 265KF outperforms the existing i7-14700KF in V-Ray by 34.38% thread for thread. This is relevant because the suite reveals that the scores have been achieved at a frequency of 5 GHz in both cases. So, without being a pure IPC comparison, it does tell us something very clear: Intel’s performance jump to one core will be large.

This, along with the fact that performance without HT is typically superior and that it doesn’t scale well in games, suggests that Intel will either make significant progress in gaming or fall somewhat short of the Ryzen 9000X3D. With 12 fewer threads and 300 MHz less than the potent i9-14900K in V-Ray, the performance is so good that it just lags by 6.77%.

In comparison, the Ryzen 7 9700X, which has 16 threads and scores an average of 24,253 points, is 36.69% slower. This is the AMD competitor that this Intel CPU will face. To continue the comparison, AMD obtains 1,515 points with this CPU as opposed to 1,657 points, thread by thread.

The launch date has yet to be revealed. But many rumours suggest that Intel will launch its Arrow Lake-S series in October.
