Oh dear … aren’t Intel’s new Core Ultra series of processors meant to be “Next-Gen” 🤣
Taken from Videocardz … Intel admits their Core Ultra 9 285K will be slower for gamers, but it will need less power. A comparison between Intel’s own Core i9-14900K and the competing AMD Ryzen 9 series has been leaked. The slides in this article are from Intel’s upcoming Core Ultra 200 reveal event, which is scheduled to take place in two days. It seems someone disregarded the embargo on these slides.
In any case, we now learn directly from Intel’s slides that the company acknowledges their 14900K is actually faster in gaming than the upcoming 285K. Compared to the 14900K, the 285K offers 261 average FPS, while the 14900K achieves 264 average FPS. The positive aspect is that the new architecture enables Intel to reduce power consumption to 447W (presumably for the entire system).
Another slide reveals that the 285K system can deliver comparable performance to Raptor Lake-R (Refresh) while consuming nearly 165W less power across numerous games.
Leakers have also shared slides comparing the AMD Ryzen 9 9950X and 7950X3D. The slides show that while the 285K is expected to outperform the current fastest X3D part (with 3D V-Cache) in productivity benchmarks. However, it will be up to 21% slower in games like Cyberpunk 2077.
Another slide shows a comparison between the 285K and the 9950X. The 285K is reported to have an average performance advantage of 0.26% compared to the 9950X (assuming PAR means 0%). However, Intel has not yet shared any power comparison between the Ryzen 9 and the 285K, or at least it hasn’t been leaked yet.
Worth noting that Intel benchmark features APO (Application Optimizations), which is a special software that may contribute to higher Intel performance.
