The fastest Raptor Lake-S CPU will be released very soon and Intel will probably release its next (rather unreasonable) proof of concept for a good price. Meanwhile, various spoilers about the performance of the new processor are increasingly accumulating, so that a “silent” release can be assumed soon.
Intel Gaming Technical Marketing Lead Jason Xie offered a live demo of an unnamed desktop processor that is part of the Raptor Lake series. While he declined to name the processor, it’s pretty obvious at this point that the CPU is the Core i9-13900KS. The CPU works on both Reference Intel and ASUS Z790 commercial motherboards. The system comes with a Corsair commercial AIO liquid cooler, so no special cooler is used in this particular demo. Intel XTU (Extreme Tuning Utility) and the HWiNFO screen will then appear, proving that no “cheats” have been applied to the 7-zip benchmark demo running in the background.
Jason explains that the CPU reaches 5.985 GHz with two cores active, but the frequency doesn’t always stay at that level. The frequency depends on many factors, such as B. the energy budget, the temperature or the software itself Previous leaks have shown that the i9-13900KS CPU could be on the market as early as January 12th. This has been suggested by leakers and several retailers who have posted their offers before. Unfortunately this is not yet confirmed. The price of this processor is also still unknown.
