## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great value if you need a strong multi-threaded processor
*by  on Reviewed in the United States June 22, 2025*

The Gaming performance is decent, the CPU is stable, and it doesn't run hot or consume a ton of power. In Gaming it beats on and beats out older 14nm Intel processors, and it can go toe to toe with Alder Lake processors. I haven't checked out the performance of the Integrated Graphics, but it is supposedly way better than what Intel had used for years with their Core i desktop processors.Where this processor really shines is with workstation type tasks. Pound for pound and dollar for dollar there isn't a better value. I ran a number of benchmarks such as a few different versions of Cinebench and the benchmark numbers this thing puts out is amazing. The Skymont based E-Cores on these Arrow Lake processors are greatly improved over the Gracemont E-Cores that were used in Raptor Lake and Alder Lake.The reason I bought this is I was forced to buy a motherboard with a 5090, and I decided to upgrade my Daughter's computer which had a Core i9-9900k. I gave her a choice between Intel and AMD Ryzen, and she picked Intel. Since I had a spare motherboard for both platforms, I decided on this processor. The Core Ultra 9 285k would have been nice, but I didn't see a reason to pay almost twice as much for four extra E-Cores and slightly higher clock frequencies.Given a choice for my own system, I probably wouldn't buy one of these unless I needed something cheap for CAD, Premiere Pro, or something that can leverage Quick-Sync. What I dislike the most is not the CPU, but the platform. Intel plans to release Arrow Lake refresh processors for this platform, then they'll ditch it for another socket with Panther/Nova Lake. At least AMD is going to squeeze out Zen 6 for socket AM5.Overall this is a good processor. In some ways it reminds me of the workstation type value the old FX-8150 and FX-8350 brought to the table, but it doesn't have all of the heat and power consumption issues that came with those processors.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Total sleeper hit
*by  on Reviewed in the United States July 15, 2026*

For those who know, this CPU did not start off life well. I won’t bore anyone with the details, but I’d never have given this a second look until some BIOS updates fixed the issues and Intel fixed their issues. Now this guy is a real beast. Just make sure you have the latest BIOS and drivers. I think the word is out now so you won’t get the steal I got for the chip, but it’s still looking like a good value given the price inflation for all things compute right now.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Rock Solid — Perfect 20-Core Workhorse
*by  on Reviewed in the United States July 30, 2026*

I’ve been running this Intel Core Ultra 7 265K on my ASUS TUF Gaming Z890 Pro motherboard and it has been absolutely flawless. Zero issues, zero crashes, and 100% stable right out of the gate.The 20-core layout handles everything I throw at it without breaking a sweat. It pairs beautifully with the Z890 platform, maintaining perfect stability even under heavy, sustained workloads. If you want a high-performance chip that works perfectly from day one without any stability headaches, this is it. Highly recommended!
