A Leap Forward in AI-Driven Laptop Computing

Leading laptop makers now have access to the Intel Core Ultra 200V series processors. These chips offer exceptional AI performance, seamless interoperability, and remarkable power efficiency.

 

 

What’s New: Revolutionary Intel Core Ultra 200V Series

Intel has unveiled the Intel® Core™ Ultra 200V series CPUs its most energy-efficient x86 processors to date. These new chips offer groundbreaking x86 power efficiency, a major leap in graphics capabilities, robust application compatibility, stronger security, and advanced AI compute power.

With support from over 20 global manufacturers including Acer, ASUS, Dell Technologies, HP, Lenovo, LG, MSI, and Samsung, Intel is powering more than 80 AI-focused consumer laptop designs. Pre-orders start today, with systems becoming available in stores and online on September 24 across 30+ global retailers. In November, all eligible systems with Intel Core Ultra 200V processors and the latest Windows OS will receive a free update that enables Copilot+ PC features.

According to Michelle Johnston Holthaus, EVP and GM of Intel’s Client Computing Group:

“These processors redefine mobile AI and graphics performance. With our strong ecosystem partnerships, Intel delivers an uncompromising AI PC experience.”

 

 

Why It Matters: Performance Meets Portability

Today’s mobile users demand performance, long battery life, and robust compatibility. Intel designed the Core Ultra 200V series with exactly that in mind.

These chips offer:

• Up to 50% lower package power
• Up to 120 total platform TOPS across CPU, GPU, and NPU
• Up to 4x the NPU power of previous generations

Intel partners with over 100 ISVs to enable more than 300 AI-accelerated features through its AI PC Acceleration Program.

 

 

Enhanced Architecture for Efficient Computing

These processors feature finely tuned Performance-cores (P-cores) for maximum output per watt per area. The Efficient-cores (E-cores) now handle more demanding workloads quietly and coolly.

With the new Xe2 graphics architecture, users get:

• 30% average boost in mobile graphics performance
• Up to eight 2nd Gen Xe-cores and ray tracing units
• Support for up to three 4K monitors
• Intel® Xe Matrix Extensions delivering up to 67 TOPS for AI acceleration

Enhanced XeSS kernels further improve creative apps and gaming.

 

 

Smart AI Capabilities Built-In

The Intel Core Ultra 200V series processors enable powerful use cases across:

Content Creation

• Faster video editing with automatic scene detection
• Generate vector and raster images using AI prompts

Security
