Intel Core Ultra 7 265K 20 Core CPU Pictured, Hwmonitor & CPU-z Add Support For Non-K Arrow Lake Desktop CPUs

Intel's upcoming Core Ultra 7 265K "Arrow Lake" Desktop CPU has been pictured while several Non-K CPUs receive support within CPU-z & HWMonitor.

Intel Core Ultra 5 235, 225, & 225F "Arrow Lake" CPUs were added to HWMonitor and Core Ultra 7 265K 20-Core CPU sample spotted on Baidu

The latest version of the HWMonitor software, v1.55 has been updated to support more Intel Arrow Lake "Core Ultra Series 2" SKUs. The popular CPUID software, which monitors real-time metrics of PC hardware will now show accurate data for the upcoming Arrow Lake processors, which are aimed at the budget segment.

HWMonitor 1.55 as updated on 27th September, reveals several updated features apart from the support for new SKUs. These are the Core Ultra 5 235, Ultra 5 225, and Ultra 5 225F CPUs, which belong to the Intel Arrow Lake S Non-K desktop lineup. The Intel Core Ultra 5 sub-series will target budget and mid-range PC market but unlike the Core Ultra 5 245K/KF, these new CPUs won't be overclockable.

The Intel Core Ultra 5 235 features a 14-core (6P+8E) configuration while the U5 225/225F features a 10-core(6P-4E) config. The U5 225F is the U5 225 variant without any integrated graphics but the rest of its specifications remain the same. The Ultra 5 235 features 3.4/5.0 GHz of clocks for the P-Cores and 2.9/4.4 GHz for its E-Cores. Ultra 5 225/F features 3.3/4.9 GHz and 2.7/4.4 GHz for P and E Cores respectively.

These chips are rated at 65W and will probably be among the second batch of CPUs to be launched after the initial Arrow Lake launch. The HWMonitor 1.55 also includes 'Improved support for Intel Arrow Lake clock granularity' as well as 'Improved support for AMD Granite Ridge and Strix Point'. We can see a couple of more Raptor Lake Refresh CPUs getting added to the software's compatibility list, including Core i9 14901KE, 14901E, Core i7 14701KE, Core i5
