VERDICT
Recommended Core™ Ultra 5 Processor 235HX
Confidence is high: totals and sub-scores point the same way. Platform planning: match cooling and board tier to 24 MB L3 cache, 14 / 14, up to 5.1 GHz. The 13% edge in AI Capability is the usable takeaway. Core™ Ultra 5 Processor 125HL still has a case in Compute Index, Content Creation Index—if that is your priority, ignore the total. Heavy AI Capability users should weight Efficiency Index (+44%), about +17% in Gaming Index heavily. Happy building—may this save you one wrong click in the cart.
