Intel Core Ultra 9 285K
The Core Ultra 9 285K is the chip I wanted to like at launch, but it felt a bit too conservative on performance. With the new 200S Boost BIOS update, it finally starts behaving like the high-end CPU it’s meant to be—strong in mixed workloads and much closer to AMD’s X3D parts in real testing.
