👁 Intel Core Ultra 9 285K CPU installed
The Intel Core Ultra 9 285K was tested at DDR5-6400 where it was running great on the prior BIOS version without any issues and then again with DDR5-8000 DIMMs where a few tests failed to properly run. Again though this is likely all ironed out in the newest BIOS version and will confirm in the days ahead. DDR5-6400 is the rated optimal speed for Arrow Lake while DDR5-8000 has also been described as a sweet spot for these new processors. I will also have CUDIMM benchmarks with Arrow Lake on Linux in the coming days. Tomorrow the Core Ultra 5 245K will join these Linux results.
ALl of these Intel / AMD CPU benchmarks were done on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS with the Linux 6.10 kernel.
