    The Intel Core Ultra 5 225 is a 65W, 10-core desktop processor with 6 performance cores, 4 efficient cores, and integrated Intel Graphics, suited to everyday desktop use and multitasking on an Intel 800-series motherboard with an LGA 1851 socket.

    Recommended For

    • Budget PC builders pairing it with a discrete graphics card for everyday use and 1440p gaming, where the GPU—not maximum CPU frame rates—is expected to do most of the work.
    • Home-office and study PC users who mainly browse, use office apps, stream video, and multitask, and want a desktop CPU with integrated graphics for display output without a separate graphics card.
    • PC builders who want integrated graphics for initial setup, troubleshooting, or temporary use while choosing or replacing a dedicated GPU; the built-in graphics are not a substitute for a gaming graphics card.
    • Builders who want a 65W-base-power desktop CPU for a mainstream system and do not need top-tier performance in heavily threaded work; independent testing found its performance varies by workload and is more modest in some multi-core tasks.
