Intel Core i9-13900 engineering sample is 20% more quickly than Alder Lake in new benchmarks

Very predicted: The frequency of leaks encompassing Intel's forthcoming 13th-gen processors keeps expanding as we get nearer to their launch. New benchmarks of an i9-13900 engineering sample exhibit that the CPU will attribute an spectacular enhance to multi-threaded general performance, thanks to the addition of eight more E-cores.

Intel's 13th-gen Raptor Lake CPUs are still a number of months absent from launch, but that hasn't stopped a Chinese tech web-site from acquiring and screening an early sample of the i9-13900.

It attributes 8 Performance cores and a whopping 16 Efficient cores, twice that of its predecessor, the i9-12900. Other noteworthy distinctions are a new microarchitecture for the P-cores, codenamed Raptor Cove, and an enhanced sum of L2 and L3 cache.

ExpReview utilized a existing-gen Z690 motherboard for screening and found that the unreleased processor is incredibly now supported. Even so, thanks to it being an engineering sample, the significant cores only boost up to 3.8 GHz.

In application benchmarks, the i9-13900 is 20 p.c quicker on ordinary in comparison to an i9-12900K locked at the same frequency, many thanks to people excess E-cores. The Raptor Lake chip is a bit slower than its predecessor in single-threaded workloads and gaming, although we can possibly chalk that up to the unfinalized microcode and deficiency of good BIOS assistance.

🥵6 GHz turbo Possibly will show up in 1 SKU. (in ETVB mode)🤣
I guess it should not be ordinary sku.

Earlier this 7 days, Intel also up to date its Severe Tuning Utility, including aid for some thing it phone calls "Economical Thermal Velocity Enhance" and some new overclocking functionalities. A hardware leaker has proposed a large-conclude Raptor Lake SKU (a successor to the i9-12900KS?) could possibly use these features to improve up to 6 GHz on 1 or two cores.

In associated information, a record of Asrock's impending Z790 and H770 motherboards leaked lately, confirming that Intel's Raptor Lake platform will continue to aid DDR4 memory.
