Intel Core Ultra 9 285K reportedly tops out at 5.5GHz out of the box

Intel's next-generation desktop flagship CPU, the Core Ultra 9 285K, is rumoured to have a turbo clock speed of up to 5.5GHz, which is lower than the current generation flagship CPU, indicating that most of the performance benefit from Arrow Lake will come via architectural upgrades, rather than increased power limits and frequencies.
According to MebiuW (via Wccftech), the Core Ultra 9 285K will have, at best, the same clock speed as the Core i9-12900KS. Even so, it should be faster, as clock speed is just one of the various specifications that determine how fast a CPU can be.
In fact, the upcoming Core Ultra 9 desktop CPU should be even faster than the Core i9-13900KS and the i9-14900KS. However, according to the same leaker, it won't be much faster than the latter. Apparently, we can expect somewhere around a 12 percent improvement.
In a different report, Golden Pig Upgrade (via VideoCardz) stated that the next-gen desktop series will not include Core Ultra 3 CPUs. Previously released material only addressed the Core Ultra 5 CPUs, referred to as the entry-level SKUs.
