The Intel® Core™ Ultra 5 225 is a modern desktop processor designed for everyday productivity, gaming, content creation and demanding multitasking. As part of Intel's Core Ultra Series 2 desktop family, it combines a hybrid architecture with dedicated AI acceleration, integrated Intel® Graphics and support for the latest DDR5 memory and PCI Express® connectivity. It provides a strong foundation for users building a new desktop around Intel's LGA1851 platform.

The processor features 10 cores, consisting of 6 Performance-cores and 4 Efficient-cores, with a total of 10 processing threads. The Performance-cores are designed to handle demanding foreground workloads, while the Efficient-cores help manage background processes and lighter parallel tasks. Intel® Thread Director works with the operating system to help direct workloads to the appropriate cores, supporting responsive performance when several applications are running simultaneously.

Maximum turbo frequency reaches up to 4.90GHz, with the Performance-cores reaching the same 4.90GHz maximum turbo frequency and Efficient-cores reaching up to 4.40GHz. The processor includes 20MB of Intel® Smart Cache and 22MB of total L2 cache, helping keep frequently accessed data close to the CPU and supporting responsive application performance.

AI acceleration is another important part of the Core Ultra platform. The Intel® AI Boost NPU provides up to 13 Int8 TOPS of dedicated AI performance, while the CPU and integrated GPU also provide AI acceleration capabilities. Support for frameworks including OpenVINO™, WindowsML, DirectML, ONNX Runtime and WebNN allows compatible applications to make use of the processor's AI hardware across a range of modern workloads.

Integrated Intel® Graphics provides display capability without requiring a discrete graphics card. The GPU includes 2 Xe-cores, operates at up to 1.8GHz and supports up to four displays. Hardware acceleration for H.264, H.265 and AV1 allows compatible systems to efficiently handle modern video workloads, while Intel® Quick Sync Video can accelerate supported media encoding and decoding tasks.The Core Ultra 5 225 supports DDR5 memory at speeds of up to 6400 MT/s and accommodates up to 256GB of system memory across two memory channels. PCI Express® 5.0 and PCI Express® 4.0 support provides bandwidth for modern graphics cards and storage devices, while up to 24 PCIe lanes are available from the processor. Thunderbolt™ 4 support further expands the platform's high-speed connectivity options.

With a 65W Processor Base Power and a maximum turbo power of 121W, the Core Ultra 5 225 offers a sensible balance between performance and power consumption. Its FCLGA1851 socket makes it compatible with Intel's current desktop platform, while its 105°C maximum operating temperature provides the thermal operating range specified by Intel.

For users building a modern Intel desktop, the Core Ultra 5 225 provides a well-rounded combination of multi-core processing, high turbo frequencies, integrated graphics, dedicated AI acceleration, DDR5 support and PCIe 5.0 connectivity. It is particularly suited to mainstream gaming systems, home and office PCs, creative workloads and general-purpose desktops that benefit from current-generation Intel platform technologies.
