Intel has announced that its current-gen Arrow Lake CPUs will be coming to gaming laptops. This generation of CPUs, previously released on desktop under the Intel Core Ultra line-up, will include similar features in the laptop variants, including a dedicated Neural Processing Unit for AI features, and have been titled the Intel Core Ultra 200HX line.
The highest end version of Arrow Lake CPUs for laptops (Core Ultra 9 275HX) will have up to 24 processing cores split into 8 high-speed performance cores and 16 efficiency cores. On the lower end side of things (Core Ultra 5 245HX) will, on the other hand, feature 14 cores split into 6 performance cores and 8 efficiency cores.
The Core Ultra 9 275HX will be able to boost up to 5.4GHz. In comparison, the mid-range Core Ultra 7 265HX (with 8 performance cores and 12 efficiency cores) will boost up to 5.3GHz, and the Core Ultra 5 245HX will boost up to 5.1GHz. Performance of the NPU on all of these CPUs will match the desktop variants at 13 TOPS (trillion operations per second).
With Intel having just announced the Core Ultra 200HX CPUs, we will likely start seeing hardware partners unveiling laptops powered by these new CPUs in the coming months.
