Hybrid processing
6 Performance-cores and 4 Efficient-cores handle foreground tasks and background work across 10 threads. This arrangement combines the stated core types for desktop work and multitasking. The application and operating system determine how the workload uses the available cores and threads.
Clock speeds for demanding work
Up to 4.9 GHz maximum turbo, with 20 MB Intel Smart Cache and 22 MB L2 cache. Actual frequency depends on workload, cooling and power settings.
DDR5 and built-in NPU
DDR5 support up to 6400 MT/s and an Intel AI Boost NPU rated at up to 13 TOPS for supported AI workloads. Use compatible DDR5 memory on the correct LGA 1851 motherboard. NPU acceleration requires supported software and workloads; the NPU is separate from a graphics card for the display.
Plan for dedicated graphics
This F-series processor has no integrated graphics. Connect your display to a compatible dedicated graphics card. A motherboard video connector does not provide graphics processing on its own. Include the graphics card, its required power connections and the appropriate display cable in the build.
Choose the right motherboard and cooling
Use a LGA 1851 motherboard with BIOS support for this exact processor. Processor base power is 65 W and maximum turbo power is 121 W, so size cooling and system power for the intended workload. Check motherboard CPU and memory compatibility before building.
Check the Rest of the Build Before Installation
Confirm the motherboard CPU support list, BIOS version, memory configuration and cooler mounting arrangement for Intel Core Ultra 5 225F. Check the graphics connection separately, then follow the board and cooler installation instructions so the finished desktop matches the parts you selected.
Complete Your Workspace
Explore Compare processors, Browse motherboards, Choose CPU cooling for your setup. Suggested products are sold separately. CPU alternatives use the same socket, but still require the exact motherboard BIOS and suitable cooling; compare their power requirements and intended workloads. Core Ultra requires a suitable LGA 1851 motherboard and DDR5; an LGA 1700 or Z790 motherboard is a different platform. Wooting, Pulsar, ARTISAN and Elgato products are optional peripherals for the completed compatible computer. Any suggested RØDE microphone and arm form a separate voice setup with the appropriate microphone mount. This processor also requires a separate graphics card for display output. Select the case, power supply and cooling for the complete build rather than the CPU alone.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which motherboard should I choose?
Use a LGA 1851 motherboard whose CPU support list explicitly includes Intel Core Ultra 5 225F. Check its required BIOS version before installation, along with case size, power connections and cooler mounting support.
Which memory does this processor support?
Up to DDR5-6400. Choose the exact memory generation and validated configuration required by the motherboard. A processor’s memory support does not make DDR4 and DDR5 modules interchangeable.
Is the maximum boost speed guaranteed on every core?
The stated maximum is 4.9 GHz. Actual frequency varies with the workload, active cores, cooling, power settings and system configuration; it is not a promise that every core runs continuously at that speed.
What should I plan for cooling?
The processor power rating is 65 W base / 121 W maximum turbo. Choose a suitable cooling solution for the exact supplied processor version. Match the socket mounting kit, case clearance and intended sustained workload.
Does it have integrated graphics?
None; discrete graphics card required. Connect the display to a compatible dedicated graphics card; motherboard display connectors do not add a GPU to this processor.
What does the main image show?
The main artwork is Intel’s official Core Ultra 5 family badge linked from the 225F product page. It is a family graphic, not a photograph of a retail box. The processor supplied is identified by this listing’s exact 225F model and SKU.
