- Tested hardware
- Intel Core Ultra 9 185H, 16 cores / 22 threads: six Redwood Cove performance cores at 4.8 GHz, eight Crestmont efficiency cores at 3.8 GHz and two low-power Crestmont cores at 2.5 GHz, Meteor Lake-H, 70 W PL2 short burst and 45 W PL1 sustained · Intel Arc 8-Core integrated graphics (not used: CPU render), driver 32.0.101.6079 · 32 GB DDR5-5600, dual channel, 64 GB maximum · not applicable: a CPU render does not read from disk while the measurement runs; the unit carried a Crucial P3 Plus CT2000P3PSSD8 of 2048 GB

- Power profile
- Normal mode, the profile the firmware ships with: 45 W sustained and up to 70 W in short bursts, as the review states in its own text. Note that one other publication labels its charts for this machine at 65 W without explaining where that figure comes from, and a second measured a PL4 ceiling of 217 W
- Test conditions
- BMW27 standard demo scene, CPU render backend as the table labels it. Samples and output resolution are the ones stored in the standard scene file. The same reviewer measured the GEEKOM A8 on this scene at 196 s and the GMKtec K11 at 193 s, both on an eight-core AMD chip: this sixteen-core Intel part finishes the render two seconds ahead of them
Editorial review checks the source and documentation; it does not certify the measurement or mean we tested the device ourselves.
