In addition to unveiling theLaptop processors with Core Ultra HX, Core Ultra H, and Core Ultra U specifications, and expanded the Core Ultra 200V series laptop processors and Core Ultra 200S series desktop processor lineups. Before the CES 2025 exhibition, Intel announced that the desktop processors previously code-named Bartlett Lake-S will be officially named Core 200S series, and the desktop processors previously code-named Raptor Lake-H Refresh will be named Core 200H series. The laptop processors code-named Raptor Lake-U Refresh will be named Core 100U series, and the desktop processors code-named Twin Lake will become the new Core 3 series.
In addition to being more widely used in a variety of terminal computing devices, Intel also emphasizes that its processors will be able to cope with higher performance in edge computing applications. For example, compared with the previous generation processor, the Core Ultra 9 285H shows an approximately 2.2x improvement in computer vision computing performance in Procyon AI, a 3x improvement in the 80-billion-parameter version of Llama 3.3, and a 1.510x improvement in performance when running stable diffusion 2.3.
Intel also explained that while the market often uses TOPS as a benchmark for AI computing performance, actual performance depends on the computing model used in different application scenarios. For example, compared to the NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin with 97 TOPS, the Core Ultra 7 265H, with a computing power of 275 TOPS, shows a 5.6x improvement in multimedia computing performance and a 3.4x improvement in video analysis performance. The performance per watt per dollar also differs by 8.2x. This suggests that choosing the processor that best suits the computing scenario isn't the only consideration for edge computing, but rather choosing the most powerful processor.
On the other hand, Intel also boasts that its processor has higher application compatibility and can be deployed in edge computing application scenarios with lower power consumption. It also claims that its processor provides up to 10 years of technical support, allowing the design of edge computing devices to save more construction costs.
