The Core Ultra 9 285K, a new 24-core desktop processor that leads Intel’s new stack of Core Ultra 200S series “Arrow Lake” CPUs, is capable of drawing a lot of power, according to several Cinebench tests that have been shared online, including one that suggests the chip can draw as much as 370 watts of power. The new benchmarks come two weeks after Intel announced the Core Ultra 200S series, confirming the Core Ultra 9 285K to feature a base power and turbo power of 125 watts and 250 watts, respectively. The Core Ultra 200S series will be available later this week, on Thursday, October 24.
