The Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX scores noticeably higher numbers in Cinebench R23 in the multicore test compared to the i9 14900HX but loses in single-core performance by a small margin.
Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX Delivers 11% Multi-Core Performance Uplift Over Core i9 14900HX While Remaining 2% Slower in Single Core Result
The recently announced Intel Core Ultra 200HX series brings the fastest mobile chips Intel has to offer. While its desktop variant has left customers disappointed, Intel still has a chance to compete in the mobile segment with its premium Core Ultra 200HX series.
Even though it will be surprising to see Intel competing with AMD in the gaming scene, it has the opportunity to showcase how much of an uplift the mobile Arrow Lake chips can bring to productivity. As leaked in one of the screenshots, a user had benchmarked the Core Ultra 9 275HX processor in Cinebench R23. The 275HX is a slightly slower version of the 285HX with just a 100 MHz lower base and boost P-core clocks.
As can be seen in the screenshot, the Core Ultra 9 275HX delivers 2161 points in single-core and 35481 points in multi-core tests. If you are aware of the 275HX's specs, the CPU brings 24 cores through a combination of 8 P-Cores and 16 E-Cores with no hyperthreading. That said, when compared to the flagship Raptor Lake Refresh mobile chip i.e., the Core i9 14900HX, the 275HX is 11.3% faster in multicore performance, which is decent, considering there is no hyperthreading.
At the same time, there is no uplift in single-core performance, which is disappointing. The i9 14900HX delivers 2200 points, which is 2% higher than what the 275HX could bring out. This could be a setback for Intel since several applications and games love higher single-core clocks to achieve better performance.
We don't yet know how powerful AMD's Ryzen 9 9955HX CPU is in this scenario, but since it will be available soon, it could be difficult for Intel to convince the mobile segment to buy the Arrow Lake-based laptops. This might lead to the same fate as the desktop Arrow Lake processors faced. As far as gaming is concerned, it's unlikely that Intel's Core Ultra 200H/200HX can take the lead as AMD is soon going to release its Ryzen 9 9955HX3D for mobile platforms.
