Much rumoured, perhaps not necessarily all that anticipated, Intel's refreshed Arrow Lake CPUs have finally arrived. We give you the new Intel Core Ultra 7 270K Plus and Core Ultra 5 520K Plus. And you know what, they're not half bad, even if that's more than 50% down to attractive pricing. They also come with an intriguing new software optimisation tool that promises to further boost performance over existing Arrow Lake chips.
That's right, the refresh amounts to just two new "Plus" SKUs. But, actually, that's fine and the two models pretty much hit the main enthusiast sweet spots. Well, as far as any CPU based on Intel's Arrow Lake Architecture can.
