Insight

VERDICT

Recommended Core™ Ultra 7 Processor 265H

Same tier, both fine; Core™ Ultra 7 Processor 265H just crosses the G-SCORE line first. Narrow the lens to AI Capability before you argue with G-SCORE alone. The largest practical gaps show up in AI Capability up +11%, Value Index (+7%)—if that is your week, Core™ Ultra 7 Processor 265H pays off. The final word is your most-used software, not this page.
