A trio of Intel thirteenth Era Raptor Lake (RPL) processors seems to have not too long ago checked into SiSoft’s sysinfo and benchmarking instruments. Prolific Twitter tech knowledge detective Tum Apisak noticed (opens in new tab) and highlighted (opens in new tab) SiSoft database entries for the purported Core i3-13100, i5-13400, and i9-13900 desktop CPUs. In fact, now we have seen a whole lot of leaks and spills concerning Raptor Lake’s top-end and upcoming flagship CPUs, so it’s fascinating on this occasion to see some gentle shone on the extra mainstream choices by Intel.
Tum_Apisak neatly collected the respective CPUs’ important specs from the net charts. One of many key issues to see from that is that the brand new Intel Core i3-13100 mannequin has a Efficiency-Cores (P-Cores) solely configuration. Thus it’s a very comparable providing to the earlier (present gen, Alder Lake or ADL) Intel Core i3-12100, with 4C / 8T. It’s the configuration we count on to see with essentially the most entry-level thirteenth Gen CPUs which are basically speed-bumped twelfth Gen components.
Conversely, the Core i5-13400 reveals some important differentiation from its ADL predecessor, by including some Effectivity-Cores (E-Cores) to the chip. And the Core i9-13900 (an in depth relative of the broadly leaked Core i9-13900K) has double the variety of E-Cores in comparison with its ADL predecessor.
Bear in mind the Rator Lake knowledge wants a pinch of salt till confirmed by Intel.

The info dug up by Apisak additionally included a mishmash of benchmark knowledge. Every separate processor appears to have been put by totally different exams by its consumer. Nonetheless, all of them did one specific check, so have a ‘processor multimedia rating’ recorded by SiSoft, which is a check of the iGPU processing efficiency – and it additionally notes the variety of GPU compute models and common clock pace.

The iGPU scores are fascinating, however the compute unit counts and clock speeds will not be as anticipated. For instance, the Core i5 has almost double the CUs however loads slower GPU clock, in keeping with SiSoft, which wouldn’t ship the virtually 10X efficiency enhance vs. the Core i3. Furthermore, rumors declare that Raptor Lake will present no important adjustments vs. Alder Lake within the iGPU stakes – solely a modest few MHz of additional pace. Thus, if you wish to know the way a selected thirteenth Gen Core processor iGPU may carry out, search for evaluations of the corresponding twelfth Gen half.
Intel will rumoredly share intensive particulars about its Raptor Lake CPUs on the Intel Innovation occasion on Wednesday, September 28 – with evaluations on the identical day. Pre-orders and availability will reportedly observe in mid-to-late October.
