Frequently Asked Questions
Which motherboards are compatible with the Intel Core Ultra 5 225?
This processor uses the LGA1851 socket, also known as Socket V1, and requires a motherboard with chipsets designed for Intel Core Ultra Series 2 processors. Check your motherboard specifications to confirm LGA1851 support before purchase.
Does the Intel Core Ultra 5 225 come with a cooler in the box?
Yes, the retail box includes an Intel-branded cooler, so you do not need to buy a separate CPU cooler unless you plan to upgrade for lower temperatures or quieter operation.
Can I game on the Intel Core Ultra 5 225 without a graphics card?
The onboard Intel Graphics can handle desktop tasks and light media playback but lacks the performance for modern gaming. You will need a discrete graphics card for any serious 3D gaming or GPU-accelerated work.

Description
The Intel Core Ultra 5 225 is a mid-range desktop processor designed for users who need solid everyday performance alongside integrated AI capabilities. Built on the latest LGA1851 platform, it suits home office setups, light content work, and casual gaming when paired with a discrete graphics card. The included NPU offloads AI tasks such as Windows Studio Effects, making it a practical choice for modern productivity workflows. This chip delivers 10 cores and 10 threads split between 6 performance cores running up to 4.9GHz and 4 efficient cores peaking at 4.4GHz, supported by 20MB cache. The onboard Intel Graphics handles basic display output across four monitors but lacks the grunt for serious gaming, so a separate graphics card is required for 3D workloads. Turbo Boost 2.0 scales power from a 65W base to 121W under load, balancing efficiency and peak performance. You will need an LGA1851 motherboard with compatible chipsets to install this processor. A cooler is included in the retail box, so no separate thermal solution is needed. The chip integrates Thunderbolt 4 support and an Intel AI Boost NPU delivering 13 TOPS, bringing the total system AI performance to 23 TOPS when combined with CPU and GPU resources, ideal for DirectML and OpenVINO workloads.Feature
