Intel® Core™ Ultra 3 205T

The Intel Core Ultra 3 205T is a desktop processor with 8 cores and 8 threads, built on the Arrow Lake architecture. It launched in 2026. A 15-MB L3 cache backs the cores (4.0 MB per core).

The Intel Core Ultra 3 205T scores 4,432 in single-core performance and 23,436 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 10,192 for overall performance, 21,438 for productivity performance, 20,867 for creator performance, 24,022 for engineering performance and 19,155 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 2,930 per core and 2,930 per thread. Its performance index is 126, so its overall performance is 26% above the Intel Core i5-12400 (index 100). Each bar shows the score as a share of a reference ceiling, which is the larger of the 99th-percentile score across the Feex CPU database and a fixed baseline.

Scores for individual PassMark CPU Mark test categories. Higher is better. These are measured test scores, not computed from the single-core and multi-core ratings.

In the individual workload tests the Intel Core Ultra 3 205T scores 53,831 in integer math, 74,007 in floating-point math, 217,271 in compression, 16,931 in cryptography, 1,822 in physics simulation, 17,923 in vector SIMD, 248 in the prime sieve and 26,310 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 9% below in integer math, 61% above in floating-point math, 5% below in compression, 47% above in cryptography, 67% above in physics simulation, 16% above in vector SIMD, 270% above in the prime sieve and 16% above in sorting. Each bar shows the score as a share of that workload's reference ceiling, the larger of the 99th-percentile score across CPUs with a recorded value and a fixed baseline.

The Intel Core Ultra 3 205T has 8 physical cores and runs 8 logical threads. It does not support simultaneous multithreading, so its thread count equals its core count.

The Intel Core Ultra 3 205T is a desktop processor, belongs to the Intel Core Ultra 3 family and uses the Arrow Lake architecture. It launched in 2026.

The Intel Core Ultra 3 205T has 832 KB of L1 cache, 16 MB of L2 cache and 15 MB of L3 cache. That adds up to about 31.8 MB of cache, or 3.98 MB per core.

The Intel Core Ultra 3 205T has a 3-level cache hierarchy: L1 at 832 KB, L2 at 16 MB and L3 at 15 MB. L2 is the largest level and makes up about 50% of the cache listed here.
