Intel Core Ultra 5 225H
Summary
The Intel Core Ultra 5 225H is a processor that may no longer be the latest novelty on the market, but still proves to be an extremely capable companion for many applications. Based on the Arrow Lake H architecture and manufactured using the advanced 3nm process, it offers a solid foundation. A particularly positive feature is certainly the integrated graphics unit, the Intel Arc 140T.
This delivers considerable performance for everyday tasks, but also for many games or more demanding graphics work. We were quite surprised how well it performs here. In addition, the Intel Core Ultra 5 225H scores with modern connectivity. Support for PCIe 5.0 ensures fast connections to peripheral devices, which is particularly advantageous for fast NVMe SSDs.
Combined with a maximum memory bandwidth of 134 GB/s and a generous 18 MB Level 3 cache, this processor ensures that data is processed quickly and applications run smoothly overall. It is, in a sense, a reliable workhorse that still shows its strengths after some time and offers balanced performance.
