It appears as if a brand new Intel gaming CPU for laptops is definitely based mostly on the corporateβs last-gen tech, in line with a benchmark leak thatβs proven up within the Geekbench Outcomes Browser. The itemizing reveals a brand new Intel Core 7 250H processor, however in contrast to Intelβs different Core 200-series CPUs, this chip seems to be based mostly on the growing old Raptor Lake structure utilized in Intelβs Thirteenth and 14th-gen Core CPUs.
The brand new lineup of Intel Arrow Lake gaming CPUs for the desktop is predicted to launch within the close to future, however weβve already seen the primary Core 200 chips within the type of the Intel Lunar Lake platform. Thus far, Intel has distinguished its Raptor Lake laptop computer CPUs by utilizing the outdated Core i-series branding on chips, whereas its Meteor Lake CPUs use the Core 100-series names. Nonetheless, the brand new Intel Core 7 250H appears prefer itβs a 200-series chip solely in identify.
The brand new CPU is seemingly revealed on this itemizing on Geekbench, which reveals a Core 7 250H CPU benchmarked on an MSI Katana 15 gaming laptop computer, as noticed by Wccftech. The chip is proven as having six P-Cores and eight E-Cores, together with a most increase clock velocity of 5,187MHz and a 2.5GHz base clock.
Nonetheless, the codename is proven to be Raptor Lake, slightly than one of many codenames for Intelβs new CPU architectures. It principally appears like a chip someplace between the Core i7 13800H and Core i5 14500HX, however with a barely completely different clock velocity, and it has the identical 24MB of L3 cache as properly. The motherboard for the laptop computer can also be listed because the MSI MS-1585, which is utilized in different gaming laptops that use Intel Twelfth-gen and Thirteenth-gen CPUs, with the identical BGA1744 CPU socket as properly.
By way of efficiency, the Core 7 250H is proven scoring 2,415 within the single-core check, which is barely increased than the two,353 scored by the 14500HX, most likely because of some additional clock velocity. Likewise, the Core 7 250Hβs multi-core rating of 13,201 is simply in entrance of the 12,708 of the 14500HX.
In fact, Intel hasnβt formally introduced the Core 7 250H, and the identify has solely simply appeared on this benchmark leak, so thereβs no assure such a chip will even be bought. Nonetheless, weβll be retaining an in depth eye on the Core 7 250H if and when it comes out.
Intel introduced plans to drop the Core i-series branding again in June 2023, and has since launched its Meteor Lake Core Extremely 100 CPUs, in addition to its Lunar Lake Core Extremely 200V chips, for laptops. On the time, Intel mentioned the transfer would βassist PC consumers higher differentiate one of the best of our newest expertise and our mainstream choices.β Nonetheless, if this rumor is true, then itβs solely made the scenario extra complicated for PC consumers.
