Quote:Intel Core Ultra 200 35W and 65W SKU lists leaks out

The CPU maker is preparing new SKUs featuring TDPs below K-series 125W. 



The 200T series featuring 35W TDP and the 200 non-K models featuring 65W TDP are expected to debut at CES 2025, alongside more affordable B860 motherboards. These CPUs target average consumers and businesses that do not require unlocked CPUs for overclocking and gaming. 

According to a list shared by @momomo_us, Intel is preparing at least seven models to launch soon. However, given Intel’s forward plans, this list may not be final. 

Intel Core 200T/non-K SKUs

• Intel Core U9-285T: 24 Cores, 36M Cache, up to 1.4 GHz; 35W
  
• Intel Core U9-285: 24 Cores, 36M Cache, up to 2.5 GHz; 65W
  
• Intel Core U7-265T: 20 Cores, 30M Cache, up to 1.5 GHz; 35W
  
• Intel Core U7-265F: 20 Cores, 30M Cache, up to 2.4 GHz; 65W
  
• Intel Core U7-265: 20 Cores, 30M Cache, up to 2.4 GHz; 65W
  
• Intel Core U5-225F: 10 Cores, 20M Cache, up to 3.3 GHz; 65W
  
• Intel Core U5-225: 10 Cores, 20M Cache, up to 3.3 GHz; 65W
  

The Core Ultra 9 285 will feature 24 cores, similar to the 285K, but with a base clock limited to 2.5 GHz on P-Cores and a reduced TDP of 65W—1.2 GHz and 55W lower than the flagship 285K SKU launched last month. Similarly, Intel is preparing a 285T variant with an even lower P-Core clock of 1.4 GHz and just 35W TDP.

These CPUs are not very popular among everyday users but are often used in All-in-One systems and embedded, business-oriented desktop PCs. 

At least three variants of the 20-core Ultra 7 265 are planned. The 65W version will include Arc GPU and GPU-less options (hence the F-variant) and a T-model.

Finally, there’s a 10-core Ultra 5 225, which is listed with F-variant, but there’s no mention of a T-version.  

The leaked Core Ultra 200 SKU list features additional parts, such as 245, 235, 215, and 205, which may be released later, or the list from @momomo may simply be incomplete. 

Intel will unveil these new SKUs in about two months, when the company is expected to confirm full specifications and pricing. Overall, the Core 200 lineup is expected to expand from five to 16 variants eventually. But is there any room or need for 295K?
