Two new Intel Panther Lake CPUs, the Core Ultra 9 386H and Core Ultra 5 332, have shown up on Geekbench. Both feature a mix of P, E and LPE cores and power different laptops from Acer.

Several Intel Panther Lake chips have shown up on multiple benchmarking platforms. So far, most of them have been X-branded SKUs with an Arc B390 iGPU. Now we get to see two non-X Panther Lake CPUs: one at the top of the stack and the other at the bottom.

Intel Core Ultra 9 386H

The Core Ultra 9 386H has shown up on Geekbench. It scores 2,840 and 15,167 in its single and multi-core tests. Performance-wise, it is similar to the Arrow Lake-based Core Ultra 285H (2,878/15,673). Like its Core Ultra X counterpart, it comes with a 16-core CPU with 4 P-cores, 8 E-cores and 4 LPE cores.

The P-cores boost up to 4.7 GHz, a tad lower than its rumoured clock speed of 4.9 GHz. For the GPU, it uses an unspecified Intel Graphics SKU (and not the Arc B390) in combination with a GeForce RTX 5060 from Nvidia. Lastly, the laptop has 64 GB of RAM and appears to be an upcoming Acer Predator variant.

Core Ultra 5 322H

Moving on to the entry-level Core Ultra 5 322, its Geekbench score is flagged as invalid. But the listing does shed light on its specs, namely 2 P-cores, 2 E-cores and 2 LPE-cores. This particular laptop belongs to the Acer Swift lineup and features 16 GB of RAM, an RTX 5060 GPU, and an unspecified Intel Graphics adapter.
