Memory and cache tests
Intel Arrow Lake desktop CPUs have undergone a significant change on many levels. Aside from the new performance (P) and efficient (E) core architectures, they are now chiplet-based and have stopped using Hyper Threading, for example. At the same time, the power consumption is lower and the Core Ultra 7 265K CPU is often more power efficient compared to the competition. This even in games, which we haven’t seen before.
Memory tests…
… and cache tests (L1, L2, L3)
Note: The L3 cache results, at least with our component configuration, could not be measured in AIDA64, the corresponding application windows remained empty. Tested with older versions as well as with the latest one (6.60.5900).
