14 cores / 14 threads, up to 5.20 GHz, AI acceleration
Recommended Core™ Ultra 5 Processor 245K
Both are viable. Core™ Ultra 5 Processor 245K is slightly ahead overall; whether that matters depends on your apps. Match your cooling and board budget to 24 MB L3 cache, 14 / 14, up to 5.2 GHz. The 11% edge in AI Capability is the usable takeaway. The largest practical gaps show up in 11% higher on AI Capability, Value Index (~8% ahead)—if that is your week, Core™ Ultra 5 Processor 245K pays off. Electricity-heavy regions should price in ~5%. The final word is your most-used software, not this page.

For gaming-first builds, Gaming Index is a better guide than core count alone.
A higher Content Creation Index generally helps with editing, rendering, streaming, and design workflows.
The higher Compute Index usually wins on compile jobs, VMs, and sustained compute workloads.
AI Capability combines ISA support, acceleration, and memory factors for on-device AI.
The higher Efficiency Index usually means less power and heat for similar performance.
On a budget, Value Index helps you spend on capability rather than badge value.
