Overview
The Intel Core Ultra 5 250K Plus packs 18 cores and 18 threads. Clocks run from 4.2GHz base to 5.3GHz boost. It drops into the LGA1851 socket with a 125W TDP — about 6.9W per core. Integrated Intel Xe graphics let it run headless-GPU builds and troubleshooting. 30MB of L3 cache helps in cache-sensitive games and workloads.
Confirm motherboard socket compatibility before anything else, then size the cooler to the TDP. Its $219.99 price tag places it squarely in mid-range territory. PlanMyPC's builder flags compatibility problems automatically and adds the part's price to your build total. Support and warranty service run through Intel, with terms that vary by region.
