A step up in several ways from 13th/14th gen Intel
I use this CPU in my gaming and video editing PC and it's honestly a step up from my 13th gen PC. Intel i9 CPUs have always run hot and the Core Ultra 9 is no exception. However, unlike the 13th/14th gen CPUs, you don't need a crazy cooling setup to keep it tamed under both light and heavy load(though for the sake of longevity I would still get at least a 360mm AIO or a 420mm AIO). Even a giant tower cooler like the Noctua NH-D15 Gen 2 will keep this CPU cooled properly. I don't do any heavy OCing, but the only high temps I see are during heavy rendering or compiling shaders for games(which this CPU does VERY quickly). I've used both the Core Ultra 7 and Core Ultra 9 CPUs and unless you really need the extra amount of horse power, the Core Ultra 7 is a better value than the Core Ultra 9. Stability is also easier to achieve on this CPU thanks to it's incredible memory controller. However, you really won't realize this unless you use RAM that has a clock driver in it(Known as CUDIMM), because if you're not you will not see the speeds intel claims you can hit, and if you can hit it, gets very unstable. Installation is straightforward and the same across 1200, 1700, and 1851 sockets so there isn't much to mess up. I'll say again; you will not see the high memory speeds unless you get a CUDIMM RAM kit. Conclusion: Basically only a small step down from the previous generation, but you get so much more stability and it is way easier to cool than the previous generations. Early reviewers made it sound like you were buying an i5 processor in a i9 branding, but man is it so misleading. This CPU absolutely performs like its previous powerhouse generation. BONUS: If you already have a LGA 1700 cooler you're in luck; you can reuse it on socket 1851! the socket dimensions are identical!

Top Tier CPU
Works as should. Top tier CPU. I’ve always been partial to Intel CPUs. Lately I’m not gonna lie AMD has had me comparing but in the end Intel kept me as a customer. I may have considered AMD if it were substantially cheaper. Then it’d be substantial savings with comparable performance but that was not the case I found. Still not sure why they didn’t make an Ultra 9 285KF. Not really much else to say haha.

Blazing-fast desktop CPU for creators + heavy multitasking (platform upgrade required)
Upgraded to the Intel Core Ultra 9 285K for a new desktop build and it’s been an awesome “do-everything” chip. The hybrid layout (24 cores: 8P + 16E) keeps the system feeling snappy even with a lot going on at once, and the high boost clocks (up to 5.7 GHz) make everyday work and bursty tasks feel instant. What I like: Serious throughput for demanding workloads (editing/encoding, compiling, VMs, multitasking) Unlocked if you like tuning Integrated graphics is handy for troubleshooting or a no-GPU setup What to know before buying: This is LGA1851, so it’s a new motherboard platform (not a drop-in upgrade for older sockets). Power can ramp up under heavy loads (rated 125W base / up to 250W turbo), so plan on solid cooling and airflow. Intel Many listings don’t include a cooler, double-check what’s in the box. Overall, if you’re building a high-end desktop and want top-tier all-around performance, the 285K is a beast.

The newest generation of Intel-designed CPUs, built by TSMC using their leading edge N3 node
Not sure what to say.... Intel Core Ultra 9 285K (Arrow Lake family) is the newest Intel processor, released at the end of October 2024. According to Wikipedia, it uses a a variety of new production and packaging technologies, and for this reason it no longer follows the standard Intel generations and numbering of the type i5, i7, i9. Reportedly, it consists of at least 4 chips, all build by TSMC (the CPU itself is built using TSCM's cutting edge N3B technology, which Intel cannot built itself so far, while Intel does the last step, packaging of all chips on an interposer. Intel sees this technology as a blueprint for future generations of CPUs, and the new socket, LGA1851, is a new development which Intel, according to the trade publications, plans to use for several future generations. Hence, in terms of upgradability of CPU on an existing motherboard, it seems to be the best bet across Intel CPUs. High performance and relatively low power are main features of this CPU. This particular package includes on CPU itself, but no thermal paste and of course no cooler. Very easy to drop into the socket. Excellent speed. Intel's design, TSMC's leading edge manufacturing.

Excellent processeur, stable et performant dans les applications de productivité mais aussi en jeux, bien aidé par les derniers microcodes d’Intel et les optimisations des firmware de carte mères. Bien moins energivore que les générations précédentes Raptor Lake. Contrôleur mémoire bien mieux optimisé.

Wat kun je hierover zeggen? Lekker snel, wel prijzig, maar dat weet je op voorhand. Het is de bedoeling de pc te gebruiken voor AI.

Procesador , espectacular no da ningún problema nada que ver a las generaciones 13 y 14, es ponerlo y a correr , me sorprende también los bajos consumos que tiene y lo fresco que se mantiene, no te voy a engañar si haces overclocking si suben bastante las temperaturas y necesitas una buena refrigeración líquida. Pero en potencia y para jugar va muy bien,

Great CPU when using the latest mobo bios, however the latest Intel 200S BOOST update thing is a useless gimmick. On the Asus Proart board, the XMS tweaked profile gives far better speeds and lowers the ram latency by 17ns which doesnt OC the CPU at all.

Top CPU! Beste Entscheidung vom i7 ultra auf den i9 ultra zu wechseln anstatt auf AMD umzurüsten! Ich bin zwar kein AMD Gegner aber die neuen CPU's von AMD versagen immer öfter! Der i9 Ultra ist brutal schnell und sehr Effizient! Durch meine Wasserkühlung sehr Stabil bei Vollast was die Temperaturen betrifft! Absolut System Stabil in Verbindung mit DDR5 RAM bei XMP 6000mhz cl 30 32GB. Meine RTX 5090 plus dem i9 ultra und dem DDR5 RAM ist das ein Monster! Brutale Leistung egal bei welchen Anwendungen. Ich kann den i9 ultra ABSOLUT Empfehlen! Auch das Preis Leistungsverhältnis passt ... noch! Tipp : Jetzt Kaufen bevor die Preise Explodieren
