Notes
35W T-series ultra-low-power 14-core. Same config as 235 but heavily power-constrained. Designed for SFF and compact builds. Sustained multi-threaded performance significantly lower than 235. IMPORTANT: Verify P-core base clock directly from Intel ARK — page truncated before this spec during research. Note: 235T Passmark of ~32,390 is close to 225F (~31,300) despite 4 more cores, reflecting the 35W constraint.
