Intel's Lunar Lake CPUs have been shrouded in mystery, but a new leak details the critical specs of these processors.
Although we know all of the details about Intel ’s Lunar Lake architecture, the processors themselves have been shrouded in mystery. Now, we have our first taste of what these processors could look like, including a critical spec that Intel has kept under wraps: power draw.
Recommended Videos There are nine models here, which vary mainly in clock speed and memory configuration. Lunar Lake uses two clusters of four cores, one of which uses the efficient Skymont architecture and the other the uses the performant Lion Cove architecture. According to the report, all of the models will use this configuration of eight cores.
Compared to last-gen Meteor Lake CPUs, Intel is splitting the difference on power. Its Meteor Lake-U series came with a base power of 15W that boosted up to 57W, as well as models with a base power of 9W that could boost up to 30W. Lunar Lake is settling in between, offering more power at its default power draw and a lower ceiling for its boost.
Outside of power, it looks like Intel is defining a narrow range for specs like clock speed. The lowest-end processor, the Core Ultra 5 226V, comes with a boost clock of 4.5GHz, while the highest-end Core Ultra 9 288V goes to 5.1GHz. It will be interesting to see how these different chips hold up in practice given the minor spec differences between them.
