The Intel Core i9-13900 Raptor Lake CPU, anticipated later this year, should be 50 percent quicker than the Core i9-12900 Alder Lake. But, contrary to popular belief, this processor’s advances over its predecessor do not seem to be limited.
Several benchmarks have already been run on the Core i9-13900 Raptor Lake in a preliminary sample. 8 Raptor Core Performance-Cores and 16 Gracemont Efficient-Cores, all at 10 nm, were employed in the sample.
As a result, this new CPU has a trifecta of 24 cores and 32 threads. The E-Cores can run at 2.76 GHz, while the 8 P-Cores can run at 3.7 GHz. In a nutshell, the Intel Raptor Lake processor is designed to be a true powerhouse.
Aside from the increased cores and threads, the Core i9-13900 has several notable enhancements, including support for DDR5 memory speeds up to 5,600 MHz. With all of these modifications, the CPU has been put to the test in a variety of benchmarks. The specific configuration utilized in these tests was not stated, such as whether the i9-13900 was used with DDR5-5600 or not.
Compared to its predecessor, the Core i9-13900 receives a favorable rating in the first graph. It should be noted, however, that this test was conducted without using a SIMD code, which significantly influences the speed and results in a less obvious difference in the second graph.
Intel’s Core i9-13900 processor also boasts much larger caches, more cores and threads, and support for DDR5-5600. The L3 cache has grown by 20% to 36 MB, while the L2 cache has doubled in capacity to go up to 32 MB. As a result, it can incorporate a total of 68 MB of cache.
