We will have to wait a few more weeks for the expected official presentation of Raptor Lake, the thirteenth generation of Intel Core, which will surprisingly take place on September 27. However, over the past few months there have been many leaks and above all the performance test results of the chips, which will basically be the first on the market, hopefully sometime in October, two or three weeks after their introduction.
In recent weeks, we’ve heard about Core i9-13900K, Core i5-13600K and Core i7-13700K benchmarks. And that’s not all, because they were also published some figures refer to the top of the line, the Core i9-13900Kwhich has already been tested at 6.1 gigahertz and which we learned yesterday can scale up to 350 watts to maximize performance.
What we didn’t expect more than a month after the presentation of the first models is that a leak would reveal it to us all processors that will make up the Raptor Lake design for desktop systems. In total 14 SKUs from the Intel Core i9-13900K with 24 cores (8/16) and 32 threads to the Intel Core i3-13100, which will have only four powerful cores and therefore a total of eight threads, 12 MB of buffer memory and a base TDP of only 65 watts.

According to the families, there will be four Core i9 chips, another four that will make up the Core i7 level, five encapsulations grouped in Core i5 and one processor, the one mentioned in the previous paragraph, called Core i3.
However, as you can see in the table, there is a lot of core performance data missing, as well as some TDP of the processors in turbo mode. However, and apart from the names of the fourteen models, we have all data on the number and type of cores (and therefore threads), the cache with which they will count and their respective TDPs with chips operating at their base frequency.
