Intel Core Ultra 5 125U
The Core Ultra 5 125U is a 12 core CPU from Intel released in 2023. This chip has a good overall score with 3241 points in our CPU benchmark. Our gaming benchmark shows that this CPU is a very good processor for gaming, with a score of 5004 points. As for multitasking and heavy workloads, the Core Ultra 5 125U scores 2724 points and 2614 points respectively. Indeed, this is an average rating for very heavy workloads.
The Core Ultra 5 125U has 12 cores and 14 threads. This CPU makes use of simultaneous multithreading technology to improve performance on parallel tasks. Each physical CPU core is divided into multiple logical processors. This Intel CPU has a clock speed of 3.6 GHz and a turbo speed of 4.3 GHz : a higher clock speed that can be reached when thermals and power delivery allow.
As for memory, the Core Ultra 5 125U makes use of DDR5-7467 memory. The faster the memory, the better. Faster memory means that the CPU doesn't have to wait to get the data it needs. It can accommodate a maximum of 96 GiB of memory. Furthermore, this chip can handle up to 2 channels of RAM, a multichannel memory architecture allows for higher data transfer between the CPU and the memory. However, to take advantage of this, you must have enough memory slots filled. Error correcting memory is not supported on this processor.
In terms of cache, the Core Ultra 5 125U has 10 MiB of level 2 cache and 12 MiB of level 3 cache. This is a fast memory located close to the processor, which stores copies of frequently used data from main memory.
It has a total of 20 PCIe lanes.
