Leakers are having a heyday proper now over impending {hardware} launches from AMD, NVIDIA, and Intel. Intel particularly has had its Thirteenth era Raptor Lake processors uncovered in varied benchmarks which highlighted its single-threaded would possibly. This new leak exhibits the flagship Core i9-13900K trouncing its Core i9-12900K predecessor in a multi-threaded Cinebench workload.
This particular take a look at was posted by Raichu (@OneRaichu on Twitter), who has a historical past of sharing legit Intel leaks, though on this case it is much less “leak” and extra “early take a look at.” Certainly, Raichu’s CPU seems to be a Thirteenth-generation Core CPU in its last silicon type.
Alright, certain—Cinebench might not be probably the most thrilling benchmark. It is an actual benchmark, although; it is based mostly on Maxon’s Cinema 4D rendering software program and is kind of consultant of efficiency in that workload. Cinebench efficiency tends to translate properly to different extremely CPU-bound compute workloads as properly.
Unlocking the facility and present limits permits the chip to spice up larger throughout all cores. As anticipated, the single-core rating does not virtually change, however the multi-core rating rises to 40,616 factors. By our reckoning, this places the Core i9-13900K some 63% forward of the Ryzen 9 5950X, and almost 43% forward of the Core i9-12900KS.
After all, unlocking the facility limits does have a value—actually, in your energy invoice. The unlocked chip, regardless of not being manually overclocked in any respect, pulls some 345 watts when totally loaded. That is going to be powerful to chill, and it makes the Core i9-12900KS appear to be a light-weight. Even with out having its limiters eliminated, the Core i9-13900K sucks down about 250 watts, although.
This leak additionally confirms the increase clock charges of the P-cores on this CPU: as much as 5.5 GHz on all cores, and as excessive as 5.8 GHz on two cores. The extraordinarily excessive clock charges make it clear why these CPUs are so power-thirsty. Will probably be fascinating to see how AMD’s Ryzen 7000 processors evaluate as soon as each chips have hit the market this Winter.
