Intel Unveils Next-Gen Chip Series at CES 2025

Intel introduces its latest chip lineup at CES 2025, aiming to recover from a challenging year with new Core Ultra processors designed for a range of applications.

Following a tough year, Intel has taken the stage at CES 2025 to unveil its newest chip series, hoping to revitalize its position in the tech industry. The launch marks a significant moment for Intel, especially after the departure of CEO Pat Gelsinger and the resolution of overheating issues in previous generations. The new Core Ultra Series 2 lineup includes processors from the Core 3 for basic tasks to the high-performance Core Ultra 200H, catering to various computing needs.

Intel’s latest offerings feature a range of processors, including the Core Ultra 200V, HX, H, U, and S series, each designed with specific applications in mind. These processors come with different core types, such as P-cores for performance, E-cores for efficiency, and low-power E-cores for even greater energy savings. Intel has also integrated AI-based power management and other optimizations to enhance performance and efficiency.

Notably, the Core Ultra 200H series includes Intel’s flagship graphics technology, Intel Arc with XMX, while other models feature Intel Graphics GPUs. Additionally, the Core Ultra 200V series stands out with Intel’s vPro enterprise ecosystem and support for Microsoft’s Pluton security co-processor, offering enhanced security features for enterprise users.

Intel’s new chips promise significant improvements in graphics performance and AI processing capabilities, with some models boasting up to 2.9x better graphics performance and faster AI model processing than their predecessors. The company expects PCs equipped with these new processors to hit the market starting later this month, with more systems becoming available throughout the first quarter of the year.
