The hardware monitoring tool has just confirmed the naming convention for the Intel Panther Lake SKUs, including all three families.
CPU ID Adds Support for Panther Lake SKUs in HWMonitor; Four SKUs in Core Ultra X H, Four in Core Ultra H, and Four in Core Ultra U
Intel's recently announced Panther Lake, which is set to launch at CES 2026, and if you have been following us, we reported last week on Panther Lake's alleged SKUs and their configurations. Looks like the leak was accurate, as CPU ID has just confirmed the naming convention and the SKU models. As spotted by @momomo_us, CPU ID has just released the latest version of the HWMonitor tool. This one adds the known SKUs in the Panther Lake lineup, including all three series currently known.
Version 1.60 for Windows OS now adds support for Core Ultra X 3X8H, Core Ultra 3X5H, and Core Ultra 3X0U. The Core Ultra X series contains four SKUs, namely:
- Core Ultra X9 388H
- Core Ultra X7 368H
- Core Ultra X7 358H
- Core Ultra X5 338H
These CPUs are expected to deliver the fastest integrated graphics, and three of them will have the flagship iGPU, featuring 12 Xe3 GPU cores, while the X5 338H will settle for 10 Xe3 cores. Then we have the regular Panther Lake-H series, which offers non-X variants such as:
- Core Ultra X9 375H
- Core Ultra X7 355H
- Core Ultra X7 345H
- Core Ultra X5 325H
Each of these CPUs brings the same core configuration as the X variants, but they will feature just Four Xe3 cores. We have already explained the Intel Xe3 Graphics in a dedicated post last week, which Intel claims to be over 50% faster than Xe2, and will power the next-gen Arc B series discrete GPU family. Moving on to the next Panther Lake series, which is the PTL-U, these will be the ultra-power-efficient SKUs, namely:
- Core Ultra 7 360U
- Core Ultra 5 350U
- Core Ultra 5 340U
- Core Ultra 3 320U
These will skip the E-cores and will feature just Performance and LP-E cores instead. Intel has confirmed that the Panther Lake SKUs will utilize the Cougar P-Cores and Darkmont E and LP-E cores as have discussed previously. This is the first Intel CPU series that is going to utilize Intel's in-house 18A process technology, while its iGPU will depend on either TSMC N3E or Intel 3 process technology.
