Intel Core 9 273PQE SCORES 4,655 single-thread score on PassMark
Intel’s Core 9 273PQE, the top Bartlett Lake-S SKU for embedded systems, has now appeared in PassMark’s public database. The benchmark entry lists a CPU Mark score of 45,427 and a single-thread score of 4,655. Intel’s own specifications confirm this model features 12 Performance cores , 24 threads, 36MB cache, and boost clocks up to 5.9 GHz at 125W base power.
The result puts the 273PQE about 22% behind the Core i9-14900K in PassMark multi-thread, based on PassMark’s current 58,410 score for Intel’s 24-core flagship. Against the Core i7-14700K, which currently scores 52,056, the gap is closer to 13%. Single-thread performance looks stronger for Bartlett Lake, with the 273PQE slightly below the 14900K’s 4,693 score and about 4% ahead of the 14700K’s 4,458.

What this means is that Bartlett Lake gets relatively close to Raptor Lake Refresh chips in a synthetic CPU test while using only P-cores and no E-cores. At the same time, the result also shows the limit of that design in heavily threaded workloads, where 14700K and 14900K still hold a clear lead thanks to their hybrid core counts. As always, PassMark is only one benchmark, so these numbers should not be treated as a full gaming or application performance picture.

The PassMark data also looks limited for now. The current listing is based on three test submissions, and all of them appear to have been run on ASRock’s IMB-X1714 motherboard. That is an industrial Mini-ITX platform built for embedded deployments, not a consumer desktop board, so these early results should be viewed as platform-specific data rather than a broader look at retail LGA1700 performance.

Intel launched Bartlett Lake-S in Q1 2026 as an embedded and edge-focused family, not a mainstream desktop refresh. The Core 9 273PQE is the fastest listed model in that stack.
