Intel guide
How to choose intel
Intel Core Ultra 200S chips fit the LGA1851 socket on the Z890 chipset. The Core Ultra 9 285K leads the lineup with 24 cores and a 5.7 GHz boost clock. The previous Raptor Lake Refresh chips (Core i9-14900K, i7-14700K) fit the older LGA1700 socket.
Hybrid core layout
Modern Intel desktop chips use Performance cores and Efficiency cores. Performance cores handle bursty workloads. Efficiency cores absorb background tasks. The Windows scheduler routes threads between the two.
