What the Core 7 150HL is
The Core 7 150HL is a 14-core and 20-thread edge processor that launched in April 2024 for demanding PS nodes. Six Performance-cores with 12 threads plus 8 Efficient-cores give 20 threads at 2.4 GHz base and up to 5.0 GHz boost. Cache is 24 MB of Smart Cache. Base power is 45 W, which sustains vision and automation loads where UL parts throttle.
Control rooms and inspection stations share the large cache and core count. P-cores handle control loops and UI while E-cores absorb logging and network stacks. DDR4 or DDR5 board options let plants align memory with fleet standards.
Industrial PCs for cells and imaging gateways fit here. Fourteen cores keep timing steady under load. Buyers who need the last 0.2 GHz should take the Intel Core 7 160HL flagship instead, since this 150HL matches it on cores and cache for less money.
Socket and motherboard compatibility
The 150HL fits LGA 1700 PS performance boards with 45 W delivery. Desktop chipset support does not cover PS IDs, so industrial lists are authoritative. The neutral sentence covers the vendor-specific case.
Performance PS boards pair 14-core SKUs with SODIMM, M.2 RAID and x16 slots for grabbers. Delivery spans 45 W with peaks. PS-branch BIOS with the 150HL ID is mandatory.
HL 14-core shoppers compare the two flagships on 0.1 GHz base and 0.2 GHz turbo. The 150HL trails the flagship slightly in bursts. The Socket vs chipset: what decides whether a CPU works guide explains the vendor model.
Memory, PCIe and cooling
DDR4-3200 or DDR5-5200 in two channels is shared by 14 cores and graphics. Large buffers plus logs should be sized together. Dual modules are preferred for bandwidth.
PCIe up to 20 lanes with PCH feeds grabbers, NVMe and LAN. Fixed splits mean multi-card plans must match the manual. One NVMe plus NIC covers most cells.
Cooling is active 45 W with heatsink and flow. No boxed cooler ships with tray edge parts. Inlet temperature decides repeat boost behavior.
Upgrade paths
LGA allows HL-to-HL steps where listed, such as to the flagship for extra turbo. Memory and NVMe can also grow. Power and BIOS must support the target.
The efficiency alternative is UL 15 W on low-power boards. A working 150HL serves cells for years. Desktop LGA 1700 is a different class.
Frequently asked questions
What socket does the Core 7 150HL use?
It uses LGA 1700 PS edge packaging for 45 W boards. Vendor lists decide fit.
How many cores does the Core 7 150HL have?
Fourteen cores and 20 threads at 2.4 GHz base and up to 5.0 GHz boost, with 24 MB of cache at 45 W.
What graphics does the 150HL include?
UHD Graphics from shared memory for control and imaging displays.
What cooling does the 150HL need?
Active 45 W cooling with airflow. Sealed boxes should use UL parts.
