Intel Core 300 series on PassMark
Panther Lake CPUs with incredibly confusing names.
Intel’s next mobile lineup has started to show up in public benchmarks. PassMark entries list several Core Ultra Series 3 “Panther Lake” CPUs, including the Core Ultra 7 366H, Ultra X7 358H, Ultra 7 365, and Ultra 5 332. The 366H and X7 358H both use 16 cores with 18 MB of L3 cache, while the 7 365 drops to 8 cores and the 5 332 to 6 cores.
Based on a summary from Wccftech , the Core Ultra 7 366H delivers a CPU Mark score in the mid 34000 range, landing close to the Core Ultra 9 285H despite a lower boost clock. The Ultra X7 358H trails it slightly but stays ahead of the Ultra 7 255H even though that chip has more P cores. The Ultra 7 365 outpaces Ryzen AI Z2 Extreme and Intel’s own Ultra 5 226V, while the Ultra 5 332 sits as the entry option with a much lower multi thread score.

Panther Lake for gaming handhelds and industrial Mini-PCs
A separate Geekbench leak also reveals the first Panther Lake handheld, the OneXPlayer X1 with a 12 core Core Ultra 5 338H. We also have confirmation on two chips for an upcoming industrial Mini-PC from Advantech (pictured in the header image) , featuring either Ultra 5 335 with 8 cores or Ultra 7 336H with 16 cores. The company confirms the latter supports faster memory (up to 7200 MT/s).

Arc Xe3 graphics look promising
On the graphics side, Intel’s Arc B390 iGPU based on the new Xe3 architecture has appeared in PassMark’s G3D tests. The 12 Xe core part reaches a score of 9453, around 16% ahead of AMD’s Radeon 890M and clearly ahead of the 880M, 860M, and 840M.

It is an open secret that Intel and its laptop partners have already sent samples to the media. Others were either invited to special events or given early hands-on sessions with new Panther Lake laptops under embargo. Performance estimates are already circulating and from what we are hearing it looks promising for Intel this time. Unfortunately, apart from some synthetic numbers, gaming performance is still a big unknown until full reviews land, likely in about four weeks or sooner.
That said, we encourage our readers to take these synthetic scores with a grain of salt and wait for some gaming benchmarks.
