Intel's family of Core Ultra Series 3 "Panther Lake" CPUs will include 14 new processors, and now we've got final clock speed details, which will max out at up to 5.1GHz frequencies.
In a new post on X by leaker @Jaykihn, the insider posted a list of 14 new Panther Lake CPUs in four different segments that include the top 4+8+4 (CPU cores) SKUs that pack 12 Xe3 GPU cores, the 4+4+ SKUs that feature 10 Xe3 GPU cores, and 4+0+4 SKUs for mainstream platforms, and then the entry-level 2+0+4 SKUs.
Intel's new flagship Panther Lake CPU for laptops will be the new Core Ultra X9 388H processor, with the full die packing 4 x Cougar Cove P-Cores, 8 x Darkmont E-Cores, and 4 x Darkmont LP-E Cores. We're expecting to see maximum CPU clock speeds of up to 5.1GHz, with 12 GPU cores from the new Xe3 -- which should end up being named Arc B390 -- with GPU clock speeds of between 2.5GHz and 3.0GHz.
We should expect the full skinny on Intel's new Core Ultra Series 3 "Panther Lake" CPUs at CES 2026, which isn't too far away now.
