For Intel's flagship "Core Ultra 200S" CPU, well, new Cinebench testing screenshots have revealed that the CPU has managed to clock in power draw levels at around 360W-370W under extreme testing, exceeding the 250W power profile we saw surface up in earlier Cinebench R23 benchmarks, which shows that the Core Ultra 9 285K still has immense capabilities embedded that are yet to be tapped.

The newest benchmarks come from the popular leaker I_Leak_VN & HXL, which reveals that under "extreme overclocking" conditions, the flagship Arrow Lake CPU has managed to tap in a 370W power draw, precisely 370.5W (CPU package power).

Interestingly, the onboard P-Cores on the Intel Core Ultra 9 285K CPU were locked at 5.6 GHz, while the respective E-Cores were running at 3.9 GHz. The workload managed to score 46,289 points in Cinebench R23, behind AMD's Ryzen 9 9950X at 253W. Even the 230W on the Ryzen 9 9950X is a lot better as it comes close to the Core Ultra 9 285K at 364W>

This particular testing does not only show us how Intel held back when it comes to its "CPU profiles," but the interesting fact here is that despite a thread deficit when compared to counterparts such as the Intel Core i9-14900K and the AMD Ryzen 9 9950X, the Core Ultra 9 285K still manages to give in hefty performance, indeed portraying efficiency enhancements that are expected to arrive with Intel's Arrow Lake SKUs.

In terms of launch dates, Intel's Core Ultra 9 285K, along with other SKUs in the Arrow Lake lineup, are set to drop by the 24th of October, and it will indeed mark a new era of performance within the desktop CPU segment.
