More Intel Lunar Lake CPUs such as the Core Ultra 5 238V & Core Ultra 5 228V have appeared within the Geekbench benchmark with updated scores.
Intel Lunar Lake CPUs Shaping Up To Be A Game-Changer For The Thin & Light Segment, New Core Ultra 5 238V and Core Ultra 5 228V Benchmarks Leak Out
Yesterday, we reported the updated performance figures of the Intel Core Ultra 7 268V CPU which painted a very good showcase for the Lunar Lake platform. Now, new benchmarks of the entry-tier Core Ultra 5 238V and Core Ultra 5 228V CPUs have been unearthed, giving us a better look at the performance that we can expect on various thin and light platforms such as laptops starting next month.
The new benchmarks come from the same Khadas MakerKit which is an AI development platform with an active-cooling solution but just like laptops, this is still a very size-constrained and compact device which makes perfect sense for Lunar Lake SOCs. Khadas previously used the Meteor Lake SKUs to power the same device and the upcoming iteration would feature Intel’s Lunar Lake SOCs.
Starting with the performance numbers, the Intel Core Ultra 5 238V scored 2683 points in single-core and 10,130 points in the multi-core tests while the Core Ultra 5 228V scored 2621 points in single-core and 10,431 points in the single-core tests. Both of these chips are very similar in terms of configurations, offering 4 P-Cores based on the Lion Cove core architecture, 4 LP-E cores based on the Skymont architecture, 8 MB of cache, an Arc 130V iGPU with 7 “Xe2” cores and TDPs ranging between 17W (PL1) and 30W (PL2). These two SKUs are equipped with 32 GB of LPDDR5x memory.

The differences come from the core clocks with the Core Ultra 5 238V featuring up to 4.7 GHz and the Core Ultra 5 228V featuring up to 4.5 GHz frequencies. The iGPU is maintained at the same 1.85 GHz.

As for graphics performance, the Intel Arc 130V iGPU features 7 Xe2 cores compared to the 8 Xe2 cores featured on the higher-end Arc 140V SKUs. The chips also run at a lower clock speed which leads to a 14.5% lower performance. Intel just recently released the first driver support for its Xe2 iGPUs.
Of course, these are just engineering samples so we can also expect smaller differences between the two Arc iGPUs with final optimizations, drivers & BIOS support. Once again, Intel’s Lunar Lake “Core Ultra 200V” CPUs are expected to launch on the 3rd of September so stay tuned for more information.
