Intel Core 7 230H
The Intel Core 7 230H is a Raptor Lake-based mobile processor in Intel's Core 200H line, pairing 6 Performance cores with 4 Efficient cores (10 cores, 16 threads) and a 5.2 GHz maximum turbo. Its integrated graphics are disabled, so it is built for systems that use discrete graphics. Intel rates it at 45 W base power and 115 W maximum turbo power.
Pros
- Ten cores and 16 threads from 6 Performance and 4 Efficient cores
- Up to 5.2 GHz Performance-core turbo frequency
- 24 MB Intel Smart Cache and support for up to 96 GB of memory
- Wide memory support: DDR5, DDR4, LPDDR5/X and LPDDR4X
- PCIe 5.0 support from the processor
Cons
- Integrated graphics are disabled, so a discrete GPU is required
- Raptor Lake cores on the Intel 7 process rather than a newer Core Ultra architecture
- Up to 115 W maximum turbo power calls for capable cooling
