The new Core Ultra 9 275HX processor was spotted inside of a new Razer Blade 18 gaming laptop with 24 cores and 24 threads, boosting at up to 5.3GHz and sporting 36MB of L3 cache. The Core Ultra 9 275HX will be one of the higher-end models of the new Core Ultra 200HX family, with the flagship Core Ultra 9 285HX taking the top spot.

Intel has dropped Hyper-Threading (HT) from its Arrow Lake CPUs in both desktop and laptop form, with the Core Ultra 9 275HX featuring a lower boost clock than the 285HX, with the 275HX featuring a base clock of 2.7GHz and boost clock of up to 5.3GHz with a maximum boost of 5.5GHz. We should also expect an Xe-LPG integrated GPU with 64 EUs and a boost clock of up to 2.0GHz.

We can expect the following Arrow Lake-HX processors:

• Core Ultra 9 285HX: 8 P-Cores + 16 E-Cores (24C/24T) at up to 5.5GHz
• Core Ultra 9 275HX: 8 P-Cores + 16 E-Cores (24C/24T) at up to 5.4GHz
• Core Ultra 7 265HX: 8 P-Cores + 12 E-Cores (20C/20T) at up to 5.3GHz
• Core Ultra 7 255HX: 8 P-Cores + 12 E-Cores (20C/20T) at up to 5.2GHz
• Core Ultra 5 245HX: 6 P-Cores + 8 E-Cores (14C/14T) at up to 5.1GHz
• Core Ultra 5 235HX: 6 P-Cores + 8 E-Cores (14C/14T) at up to 5.1GHz (slower 2.9GHz base)

This means that Intel Core Ultra 200 and Core 200 series are split into the following:

• Intel Core Ultra 200 series "Arrow Lake" CPUs (desktop)
• Intel Core Ultra 200V series "Lunar Lake" CPUs (laptop + 32GB RAM max)
• Intel Core Ultra 200HX series "Arrow Lake" CPUs (laptop, high-perf)
• Intel Core 200 series "Raptor Lake Refresh" (laptop)

While these new Core Ultra 200HX series "Arrow Lake-HX" enthusiast laptop CPUs sound great, the naming schemes are getting out of control (on both sides). I've compiled a list of what CPUs are on the market now, and the ones coming in the next few months and it's going to be hella confusing for consumers:

• Intel Core Ultra 200HX series "Arrow Lake-HX" (laptop processor)
• Intel Core 200 series "Raptor Lake Refresh" (laptop processor)
• Intel Core Ultra 200V series "Lunar Lake" (laptop processor + NPU)
• Intel Core Ultra 100 series "Meteor Lake" (laptop processor)
• Intel Core Ultra 200 series "Arrow Lake" (desktop processor)
• Intel 14th Gen Core "Raptor Lake Refresh" (desktop + laptop processor)
• Intel 13th Gen Core "Raptor Lake" (desktop + laptop processor)

The same goes for AMD:

• AMD Ryzen AI Max 300 series "Strix Halo" (laptop processor + NPU)
• AMD Ryzen AI 300 series "Strix Point" (laptop processor + NPU)
• AMD Ryzen 200 series "Hawk Point Refresh" (laptop processor)
• AMD Ryzen 8040 series "Hawk Point" (laptop processor)
• AMD Ryzen 9000 series "Granite Ridge" (desktop processor)
• AMD Ryzen 7000 series "Raphael" (desktop processor)
