It looks as though the wait for Intels next lineup of gaming CPUs is nearly over, as weve just spotted a benchmark leak that not only reveals a new CPU brand name, but also some of the key specs. According to the leak, the new Intel Core Ultra 7 270K Plus offers a substantial boost in core count compared to its predecessor, the Core Ultra 7 265K, adding an extra four E-Cores to the package.Those extra E-Cores wont make much difference to gaming performance, but they will give the chip an extra helping hand in multi-threaded workloads such as video encoding and 3D rendering. As we found in our Core Ultra 7 265K review, the strong points of the Intel Arrow Lake architecture are multi-threaded performance, as well as cool operation and power efficiency. Our recent 265K retest also showed that Intel has made up some lost ground in game benchmarks now too, although AMDs X3D chips are still well ahead.Read the full story on PCGamesN: Meet the Intel Core Ultra 7 270K Plus, a new 24-core Arrow Lake refresh gaming CPU, according to this benchmark leak
