Panther Lake might've taken the spotlight at Intel's CES show floor last month, but the company has had another lineup in the oven for a while now: the now-confirmed Arrow Lake Refresh. Spanning across desktop and mobile, the upcoming 16th Gen CPUs from the Blue Team have already generously leaked, and today, we have yet another Geekbench listing to go over featuring the flagship Core Ultra 9 290K Plus.
The run was conducted on an Asus ROG Strix Z890-E Gaming Wi-Fi motherboard with 64 GB of DDR5-6800 memory. The chip netted 3,535 points in the single-core test, roughly 10.5% higher than its predecessor's 3,200 points. Comparing it to all the entries on Geekbench's processor benchmarks charts, that score actually puts the 290K Plus at the very top.
