As normal, the nearer we get to a product launch, the extra leaks we see. Intel’s Thirteenth-generation Core household, codenamed Raptor Lake, is predicted to be introduced in September, and may have accomplished manufacturing awhile again. It’s going to launch with its personal new chipset and line of motherboards after all, but it surely’s additionally going to fit into extant Alder Lake boards. Consequently, we’re type of drowning in leaks from the upcoming CPU sequence.
Evaluating the brand new outcome to the graph from yesterday, we see a fair increased single-core rating of 2090, whereas the multi-core rating is simply very barely improved over the 13600K at 16542.
Of explicit word is that the 16542 multi-core rating outpaces the Ryzen 9 5950X. Multi-core efficiency has been AMD’s bread and butter for a very long time, however Intel has by no means been far behind. We already knew that the 24-core Core i9-13900K might outpace the Ryzen 9 5950X, however to see the Core i7 mannequin doing it too is fairly fascinating.
In fact, there is no telling how a lot energy the Core i7-13700K was drawing throughout the benchmark. There’s additionally the little matter of AMD’s Zen 4 processors, that are anticipated to launch inside a month of Raptor Lake. We have mentioned it many occasions within the final couple of months, however the finish of this 12 months goes to be an enormous leap ahead for desktop PC efficiency. All we are able to do is wait—however do not maintain your breath. It’s going to be a couple of months, in spite of everything.
