VERDICT
Recommended Core™ Ultra 9 Processor 285H
Near tie; your app list is the real tiebreaker. Match your cooling and board budget to 24 MB L3 cache, 16 / 16, up to 5.4 GHz. Narrow the lens to AI Capability before you argue with G-SCORE alone. Stack AI Capability ahead 13%, on Efficiency Index: +10% together—that is the everyday case for Core™ Ultra 9 Processor 285H. The final word is your most-used software, not this page.
