Faster memory helps everywhere on a hybrid design, and combined with the extra cores it makes this a strong multi-tasking chip while keeping the same 4.2GHz base for responsiveness. On price it often undercuts the 245K, which makes it the sensible default here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe \"F\" and the thread count\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo integrated graphics at all, so a discrete card is required — no display output without one. And as with all Core Ultra, there's no Hyper-Threading: eighteen cores means eighteen threads. Cooling is manageable at 159W maximum turbo — a good tower air cooler will do — but nothing is included in the box. If you want on-board graphics, the 250K is the same chip with Xe cores enabled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6 P-cores + 12 E-cores, 18 total, at up to 5.3GHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDDR5 support up to 7200 MT\/s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e30MB Intel Smart Cache\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnlocked multiplier for Z-series overclocking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntel AI Boost NPU — 13 TOPS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSPECIFICATIONS:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: Intel Core Ultra 5 250KF (BX80768250KF)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTotal Cores: 18 (6 Performance-cores + 12 Efficient-cores)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThreads: 18\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eP-core Base Frequency: 4.2 GHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMax Turbo Frequency: 5.3 GHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCache: 30 MB Intel Smart Cache\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProcessor Base Power: 125 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum Turbo Power: 159 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSocket: FCLGA1851\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMemory: DDR5 up to 7200 MT\/s, 2 channels, max 256 GB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated Graphics: None — discrete graphics card required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNPU: Intel AI Boost, 13 TOPS (Int8)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePCI Express: PCIe 5.0 and 4.0, up to 24 lanes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBundled Cooler: Not included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: 3 Year\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWHAT'S IN THE BOX:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntel Core Ultra 5 250KF processor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDocumentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCooler sold separately\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Intel?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOfficial DDR5-7200 support means the memory you buy for it can actually run at the speed on the box.
