Spotted by leaker @momomo_us, the new CPUs include three Core Ultra 5 235 variants aimed at desktops and laptops. These comprise the Core Ultra 5 235A, the slower-clocked Core Ultra 5 235TA, and the mobile-focused ultra-low-power Core Ultra 5 235UA.

The Core Ultra 5 235A seems completely unchanged from the original 235. Core count, clock speeds, TDP, iGPU setup are all exactly the same, making one wonder why it exists.

The Core Ultra 5 235TA is a different beast, although not by much. It's a downclocked version that drops E-core and P-core base clocks to 1.6 GHz and 2.2 GHz respectively. TDP dips to 35W base with a turbo cap of 114W, compared to 65W/121W on the other models. It is still stuck with three Xe cores at 300 MHz, so graphics still remain little better than an Etch A Sketch.

Then there’s the Core Ultra 5 235UA, which is actually doing something interesting. It comes with just 10 cores; two P-cores, eight E-cores, plus a couple of low-power E-cores chucked in for good measure. That makes 14 threads and plenty of thermal wiggle room, given its 15W base and max 57W TDP.

Unlike the rest of the Arrow Lake mob, the 235UA uses Intel 3 process rather than offloading to TSMC’s N3B. That's a rare moment of home-grown pride for Chipzilla, who typically prefers outsourcing the tricky bits.

Clock-wise, you get 1.6 GHz base and 4.1 GHz boost on the E-cores, 2.0 GHz/4.9 GHz on the P-cores, and 0.7 GHz/2.4 GHz on the low-power variants. It's modest, but the thing is designed for sipping watts, not guzzling them.

According to the product pages, these chips are meant to arrive sometime this quarter. Pricing is expected to stay near existing Core Ultra 5 235 levels, while the 235UA should come in noticeably cheaper than the 235H and 225H.
