Under the same performance, power consumption is reduced by 38%
Under the same power consumption, the energy efficiency ratio is increased by 40%
Design load POV Ray performance improvement of 31% 3
Under basic office mode, it can meet 8 hours and 4 battery life
Paired with the all-new GeForce RTX 50 series laptop GPU, the game performance has been improved by 11%, allowing players to enjoy 3A masterpieces with full picture quality and high frame rate
Intel gaming laptop supports independent NPU for the first time, unlocking AI+gaming experience, sharing the pressure of graphics card computing power, launching a new Intel AI gaming assistant, realizing exclusive game guidance and companionship functions
APO black technology has been upgraded again, supporting 13 mainstream games and improving game performance up to 10% with just one click
3 types of hardware level acceleration units improve content creation performance by 51% and productivity performance by 21%
24 direct PCIe channels, supporting 2 M2 hard drives directly connected to the CPU, lower read latency, faster program loading, and more device connections
Supports Thunderbolt 5 and up to 120Gps data transmission. Intel Wi Fi 7 bids farewell to network latency, wireless gaming no longer lags, multi device collaborative "frontline" control
The Core Ultra 200HX can achieve over 50% 8 generation performance improvement in workflows such as AI and machine learning, energy, and financial services in the field of mobile workstations, and over 20% 8 performance improvement in multimedia production, life sciences, and data science.
Silent without compromise, greatly upgraded gaming experience
The all-new Core Ultra 200HX brings a quieter experience. The operation of Civilization 6 game was demonstrated on site. Under the same performance, the difference in noise experience between 31 decibel 9 and 46 decibel 9 is very obvious. Mute not only makes the sound of the game's fan no longer sound like a "plane taking off" during smooth gaming, but also reduces interference with the game's inherent sound, music, and even voice communication, no longer troubled and troubled by noise.
The quietness of the gaming laptop fan is derived from the high energy efficiency ratio of the Core Ultra 200HX. In the testing of the CS2 game, only 75W power consumption of 9 is required to achieve maximum gaming performance, and the performance released by the previous generation processor at 125W power consumption of 9 is even stronger. Under the power setting of 'balanced mode', the game performance on CS2 has improved by up to 39%, while in 'optimal performance' mode, the game performance on Total War: Troy has improved by up to 18%.
Adding some black technology to the game with AI
In addition to quietness and battery life, AI black technology is also an innovative experience brought by the Core Ultra 200HX processor. Thanks to the XPU architecture, high-performance, high-throughput, and low-power AI loads can be allocated separately, allowing better performing engines to handle more suitable loads and drive AI game assistant interaction: NPU accelerates game scene recognition, CPU accelerates audio and real-time processing, iGPU accelerates LLM inference and RAG retrieval interaction. On site, the new smart chip and Xinying Suixing demonstrated the application functions of AI game assistants, allowing players to enjoy the fun of games more through AI assistants.
Intel will also launch a Game Assistant SDK (Software Development Kit), which will enable OEM and ISV partners to develop their own AI game assistants.
Accurate optimization, greatly improving game performance!
In addition to architecture improvements, the Core Ultra 200HX also supports Intel's exclusive APO game optimization technology. The gaming industry is diverse and multifaceted. Not all games can maximize the performance advantages of the latest architecture. In order to provide players with a better performance experience, Intel has developed APO technology: to optimize the core configuration and power management of the processor according to the needs of different games, and achieve maximum game performance. All optimizations are automatically completed through the APO program without user intervention. At present, APO plans to cover over 200 popular games both domestically and internationally, and continuously expand game scanning and optimization adaptation.
For more professional audiophiles, the 200HX processor offers comprehensive overclocking settings, including finer grained clock frequencies to tap into every potential of the processor; The clock frequencies that are independent of each other between the cores provide a richer range of adjustable parameters; Tile to Tile overclocking, Fabric overclocking, bring more playability; Intel XTU overclocking tool makes overclocking easier.
