What's exactly Mega in the Geekom GT1 Mega? The Geekom GT1 Mega promises powerful performance in a mini PC form factor and is aimed at users who need a lot of performance in the smallest of spaces. Equipped with the Intel Core Ultra 9 185H, Geekom has installed a Meteor Lake processor with a dedicated NPU for the first time. In this test, we find out whether the Geekom GT1 Mega is convincing in several aspects ranging from features to performance and cooling.

Highly efficient. Intel Lunar Lake promises to bring the efficiency of x86 laptops to a similar level as ARM CPUs from Qualcomm and Apple. This is mostly successful, even if the maximum multicore performance is limited. For a compact and lightweight office laptop like the Asus ExpertBook P5 P5405 though, we think other aspects matter more - like the long battery life and quiet cooling fan.

Long runtimes thanks to Lunar Lake. Acer's Swift 14 AI is a compact and lightweight multimedia laptop which has access to Intel's brand-new and pretty efficient Lunar Lake architecture. The Arc Graphics 130V iGPU which we have yet to test had to compete with the 140V as well as its predecessors in the benchmarks.

A curse and a blessing at the same time! Intel is ushering in a new era with the Arrow Lake processors for the desktop sector. A new naming scheme, a new architecture, and lower power consumption are some of the major changes. In this review, you can find out what other changes there are in detail and how well the Intel Core Ultra 5 245K performs in everyday use and in gaming.

Power-efficient but gaming deficient. Intel's new Arrow Lake-S Core Ultra 9 285 introduces a new compute tile layout that sacrifices hyperthreading and aims to win over enthusiasts with significant efficiency improvements. While the Core Ultra 9 285K does indeed deliver on raw CPU performance and efficiency, it loses badly to Intel Raptor Lake-S Refresh and AMD Zen 5 Ryzen 9000 offerings in gaming.
