Intel launches Raptor Lake Core i9-13900KS as the world’s first 6GHz CPU

Intel recently introduced its 13th generation Core processors, and today the company announced a new top-of-the-line model, the Intel Core i9-13900KS. With a clock speed of 6.0GHz without overclocking, it is billed as the fastest desktop processor to date. It is now available for purchase at a cost of $699.

The Intel Core i9-13900KS is based on the 13900K chip, which has a maximum turbo frequency of 5.8GHz. Using Intel’s Thermal Velocity Boost technology, the newly released 13900KS achieves 6GHz without overclocking. It accomplishes this by using more electricity, utilising 250 watts at maximum turbo power rather than the standard 150 watts, and peaking at 320W in a new Extreme Power Delivery Profile.

Except for power consumption and turbo frequencies, the Intel Core i9-13900KS is nearly identical to the 13900K.

The performance core’s base frequency has been increased from 3GHz to 3.2GHz. It has 24 cores, including eight performance cores and sixteen efficiency cores.

There are 32 threads, 36MB of Intel Smart Cache, and 20 PCIe lanes, 16 of which are PCIe 5 and four of which are PCIe 4. In terms of compatibility, with a BIOS update, the Z790 and Z690 motherboards will support the new 13900KS chip.

The release of the Intel Core i9-13900KS flagship desktop chipset comes just weeks before AMD’s Ryzen 7000 X3D CPUs. AMD claims that its flagship Ryzen 9 7950X3D processor is the ultimate processor for gamers and creators, with up to 25% better performance.
