Intel is in fact releasing a full lineup of Raptor Lake processors when these chips hit the market. Anybody might fairly infer that we’ll see CPUs with Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, and Core i9 branding, however the specs of these fashions weren’t clear till Bilibili {hardware} dude ExtremePlayer leaked an inventory of what purports to be the complete product stack.
The checklist, reproduced beneath, consists of some fourteen completely different SKUs throughout three completely different items of silicon, though 5 of the fashions are duplicates with out built-in graphics. It seems that, identical to with Alder Lake, the Core i9, Core i7, and top-end Core i5 fashions will share a die, whereas a smaller die will likely be used for the remainder of the Core i5 household. New for the Thirteenth-gen household is a yet-smaller die with no E-cores that can apparently be used for the Core i3-13100.
One of the fascinating particulars about these processors, Enhance Clock, is not included on the chart. That is most likely as a result of they aren’t even finalized but. The remainder of the chart traces up with earlier leaks and largely is not shocking, though we’re somewhat bit impressed to see the extra E-cores promised with Raptor Lake make it up to now down the product stack. It’s important to head all the way in which right down to the Core i5-13400 earlier than you see a CPU with lower than 14 complete cores.
Certainly, this can be the largest hole between Core i3 and Core i5 up to now. The Core i3-13100 lacks any E-cores by any means together with having simply 4 P-cores. With that stated, this chart most likely would not embody each Thirteenth-gen desktop CPU that Intel will ultimately launch, and there’ll probably be some barely higher-end Core i3 fashions to correspond with the Core i3-12300 from final era. The 2 most cost-effective chips on the chart additionally take a minimize to only 75% of the GPU horsepower of their higher-end siblings.
Whereas this chart would not present enhance frequencies, the leaks and rumors that we have already seen have implied some fairly loopy issues in regards to the clock charges of Raptor Lake. These particulars most likely solely apply to the Okay-series fashions, which have elevated PL1 and PL2 rankings in comparison with the non-Okay fashions. That is seen of their base clocks, the place the overclockable “Okay SKU” chips are sporting base clocks as a lot as 1.3 GHz increased than their non-Okay counterparts.
Base clock would not inform you a lot about real-world efficiency, however on this case, significantly for multi-core workloads, we count on the upper TDP alone will lead to vital efficiency variations between the suffix-less and “Okay” fashions. We’ll discover out when these CPUs launch, which may very well be at Intel’s Innovation occasion beginning September twenty seventh.
