Ashes of The Singularity by Benchleaks has new benchmarks of Intel’s top Core i9-13900K Raptor Lake CPU. Although Ashes of The Singularity Escalation is a very ancient game, it was one of the first to use DirectX 12’s Async Compute technology, and changes have been made so that the engine may benefit from multi-core machines. We can now evaluate how the Intel 13th Gen Raptor Lake flagship compares to its predecessor and competing parts thanks to this benchmark.
The retail Intel Core i9-13900K Raptor Lake CPU sample under evaluation here has 24 cores and 32 threads organised as 8 P-Core and 16 E-Core. The CPU is set up to run at 3.0 GHz base speed, 5.8 GHz single-core boost (1-2 cores), and 5.5 GHz all-core boost (all 8 P-Cores).

The Intel CPU has a 125W PL1 rating that goes up to 250W and 68 MB of shared cache.
At the same settings, the Intel Core i9-13900K achieved an average framerate of 204.7 FPS, up to 24% quicker than the Intel Core i9-12900165.3 K’s FPS. The Raptor Lake flagship is 43% and 68% quicker than the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X and Ryzen 7 5800X3D, respectively, according to their performance scores of 143.5 FPS for the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X and 121.4 FPS for the Ryzen 7 5800X3D.

The benchmark was conducted at 4K, indicating that the situation is primarily GPU-bound. This is demonstrated by the total framerate, which is quite similar across the three chips. It is undoubtedly an interesting conclusion, and Raptor Lake processors will offer a significant edge for games that prioritise cores and threads overclocks.
On the Z790 platform, the Intel 13th Gen Raptor Lake desktop CPUs, including the flagship Core i9-13900K, are anticipated to go on sale in October. The Ryzen 7000 CPU family from AMD, which also debuts in the fall of 2022, will compete against these CPUs.
Leaked and tested at Geekbench 5, the first retail-ready Intel Core i9-13900K Raptor lake CPU features 24 cores and a boost rate of up to 5.8 GHz. On the Geekbench 5 data-base, a score that was even higher on the same testing platform has surfaced. A retail chip with 24 cores and 32 threads in an 8 P-Core and 16 E-Core arrangement is what the Intel Core i9-13900K Raptor Lake CPU sample that was used for this test appears to be.
We can determine that this is basically a superior “Retail-Ready” sample based on its clock speed alone, even if the CPU only has 68 MB of total cache. The chip’s base frequency of 3.0 GHz and standard boost frequency of 5.5 GHz were both maintained throughout the benchmark.
The ASRock Z690 Taichi motherboard and 32 GB of DDR5 memory were used in this test of the Intel Core i9-13900K Raptor Lake CPU. Although we don’t know the actual memory speeds, based on this result, they should have been extremely fast.
With up to a 47 percent improvement over the 12900K and a 55 percent improvement over the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X, the Intel Core i9-13900K Raptor Lake CPU @ 5.8 GHz offers incredible multi-core CPU performance.
credit: wccftech
Even the Ryzen Threadripper 3990X, which has 64 Zen 2 cores, is outperformed by the chip. In single-threaded tests, the chip offers a significant 30% improvement over the Ryzen 9 5950X and a 14% improvement over the 12900K.
It was revealed yesterday that AMD’s Ryzen 7000 desktop CPUs will provide top rates of up to 5.7 GHz, and it appears that Intel is simply holding onto its position as the market leader in terms of frequency. In the upcoming generation, both CPU makers will offer some outrageous clock speeds (above 5.5 GHz+), which will undoubtedly result in a significant expansion of the single-core application suite.

The premium Core i9-13900K and Core i5-13600K desktop CPUs from Intel’s 13th generation Raptor Lake are scheduled to debut on the Z790 platform in October. The Ryzen 7000 CPU family from AMD, which also debuts in the fall of 2022, will compete against these CPUs.
Expreview, a Bilibili video creator and tech outlet, has revealed the first images of a delid 13th Gen Intel Raptor Lake CPU. The very bizarre video depicts the user deliding the chip, fracturing off a single capacitor, re-fusing it, then testing the chip on an ASUS Z690 board to see whether it functions. Unfortunately, it did not.
The Core i9-13900 Engineering sample of the Intel 13th Gen Raptor Lake CPU that is displayed in the movie has 24 cores and 32 threads. This shouldn’t be confused with the top Core i9-13900K, which has the identical die configuration but a significantly higher TDP and faster clocks. The 13th Gen Raptor Lake CPUs, like the 12th Gen Alder Lake CPUs, will be available in two configurations: a C0 die with the full core configuration and a smaller, scaled-down C0 die that can accommodate up to 6 P-Cores.
To provide the optimum thermal transmission between the die and heat spreader, Intel is once more adopting a premium solder design with a gold-plated IHS. The CPU lacks the liquid metal TIM that AMD employs for their Ryzen chiplets but has high-end TIM between the die and IHS.
With dimensions of 23.8 x 10.8mm or 257.04mm, the Raptor Lake H0 die appears to be a little larger than the Alder Lake H0 die.
credit: wccftech
The Alder Lake top-dimensions die’s are 20.4 x 10.2mm, or 208.08mm2, for reference. This represents a 24 percent increase in die area, which makes logical given that the new CPUs will include more Gracemont E-Cores and larger L2/L3 caches than the parts from the previous generation.
Another leaker who posted this picture on the Baidu forums also revealed some fascinating information. According to reports, the 13th generation Raptor Lake processors from Intel would have a 400–420W maximum power restriction, which is more than the 300–330W limit of the 12th generation Alder Lake processors.
The new chips operate cooler while using the same amount of power and cooling, which is a result of greater die surface area coverage, despite the fact that the power limit is significantly higher.
ExtremePlayer has tested Raptor Lake before, and this is undoubtedly not the last time. The reviewer has already released test findings using Core i9-13900K and Core i5-13600K/i7-13700K, two separate Raptor Lake engineering samples. He is currently putting the i7 and i5 CPUs to the test in gaming.
More Efficient (Gracemont) cores, faster clock speeds, and greater power PL1/PL2 levels will all be included in the 13th Gen Core series. While the additional cores help multi-threaded applications operate faster, the 13th Gen Core primarily offers improved performance, especially in games, thanks to its high clock and higher maximum TDP.

The 16-core i7-13700K CPU has a boost speed of 5.4 GHz. A qualifying sample (QS) was powered up to 244W in synthetic tests, or around 50W more than 12700K. In contrast, the i5-13600K has 14 cores (4 more than the 12600K), a clock speed that is about 300 MHz faster, and a PL2 level that is about 30 W higher.
The reviewer is utilising the same two motherboards as before: ASRock Z690 Steel Legend in DDR5 and DDR4 versions. DDR5-6400 and DDR4-3600 memory was installed on these machines, respectively. Additionally, he contrasts the i7-12700KF and i5-12600K from the Alder Lake series with the Intel 13th Gen Core CPUs. The GPU utilised is MSI RTX 3090 Ti GAMING X TRIO.
ExtremePlayer’s charts are incredibly detailed, so @harukaze5719 created his own, which is much easier to read from our perspective.

The new Raptor Lake CPUs are faster at all resolutions, particularly the preferred FHD and QHD for CPU-bound testing.
Even though the average framerate at FHD resolution has only gone up 7 to 12 per cent, the minimum framerates have improved across the board. For FHD, this is an improvement of 11–14%. The same reviewer’s 13900K test showed the same improvement for minimum FPS.
Two tests using a purported Intel Core i7-13700K are said to have been leaked. The first one demonstrates the processor operating at 6 GHz while disabling hybrid mode and all 8 Performance cores (so no Efficient cores). In this instance, the CPU outperformed a leaked Core i9-13900K running at 5.5 GHz on all Performance cores, scoring 983 points in the single-thread CPU-Z benchmark.
The multi-core test result is visibly impacted by removing “small” cores, and it is recorded as 7814 points. This screenshot was taken after a test, as evidenced by the voltage reading of 1.421V and the temperature range of 25 to 37°C.
The other displays the identical CPU with the hybrid cores turned on, indicating that all 16 cores are active. Efficient cores operate at 3.7 GHz, whereas Performance cores run at 5.8 GHz. The CPU in this instance receives scores of 947 in the single-thread test and 12896 in the multi-threaded test.
28-38 °C at 1.5 volts is the quoted temperature for the CPU package (so again temperature reported after test). Here, a distinct board was employed: With DDR4 RAM, ASUS ROG Strix Z690-A Gaming.

This CPU performs 10 per cent better than the Intel Core i9-13900K at 5.5 GHz and 16 per cent better than the Core i9-12900K at 5.2 GHz with such a score.
Credit: video cards
The benchmark appears to be shown in a video that Esperonslaie released, although not all of the data is visible. The Cinebnech stress test and 5.9 GHz overclock use a 1.445V CPU voltage. In that case, a third test—possibly from the same leaker—would be conducted. This temperature reading from the test shows a package power of 85°C.
Exciting products coming up in recent months as Intel, AMD, and NVIDIA will all be launching next-gen products to show their dominance in the silicon industry. Now, the CPU performance battle between AMD and Intel has intensified in a massive way in the last few years and in 2022 this will get even nastier.
Yes, a nasty battle between the two giants should give customers some of the best products to cherish and Intel has already proven that through its 12th Gen Alder Lake. Now, in 2022 they are looking forward to heating things up with new 13th Gen Raptor Lake processors which will be a big upgrade over last-gen.
Already multiple leaks of Core i9-13900K and Core i5-13600K have emerged online, and now it’s time for the Intel Core i7-13700K which now has been upgraded to 16 cores this time. The predecessor Core i7-12700K or KF was limited to 12 cores where 8 were Performance cores and 4 of them were Efficiency cores.

However, this time, the new Core i7-13700K will come with full-fledged 16 cores with 8+8 Performance and Efficiency cores, so, practically giving Core i9-12900K-like performance guaranteed. Now, on top of this, the IPC improvements give even better scores in benchmarks like Geekbench where this new Intel CPU has recently been spotted.
Here as you see the 16-core Intel Core i7-13700K processor goes to score 2090 points in single-core, the first time crossing that 2000 points barrier for a mid-range CPU. Now to complement this, the multi-core score reaches 16,542 points, and yes it beats its predecessor and the Core i9-12900K which scored 16,864 points, also these are early benchmarks so improvements in the future can obviously be expected.
Comparing the scores with last-gen Ryzen 9 5900X, you will a massive performance bump, the upcoming Core i7 processor is 20% faster than Ryzen 9 5900X in multi-core in Geekbench and 26% faster in single-core. These are some incredible early numbers that go to show how good these next-gen Intel SKUs will be, be aware AMD!
We now have performance data for all three 13th Gen “K-Series” SKUs of the Core i7-13700K Raptor Lake CPU from Intel thanks to leaks within Geekbench 5. The Raptor Lake CPU lineup’s fastest 13th Gen Core i7 chip will be the Intel Core i7-13700K. There are a total of 24 threads and 16 cores on the processor. 8 P-Cores based on the Raptor Cove design and 8 E-Cores based on the Grace Mont core architecture enable this combination. The CPU has a combined 42 MB cache, which is made up of 12 MB of L2 cache and 30 MB of L3 cache. The chip’s boost frequency was 5.30 GHz, and its base clock was 3.4 GHz.

Another recent entry shows the Intel Core i7-13700K Raptor Lake operating on the same hardware, but with the DDR5 version of ASRock’s Z690 Steel Legend, and achieves far better multi-threaded performance.
The CPU is shown operating at speeds of over 5.3 GHz across all cores, and it achieves a maximum multi-threaded score of 19,811 points, a 20 percent improvement over the DDR4 entry. For the Intel Core i5-13600K, the DDR5 vs. DDR4 testing showed an improvement of +11 percent.
The Intel Core i7-13700K is thus 15 percent quicker than the Core i7-12900K, 20 percent faster than the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X, 40 percent faster than the Core i7-12700K, and 92 percent faster than the Ryzen 7 5800X based on the updated benchmark results.
On the ASRock Z690 Steel Legend motherboard, the CPU was benchmarked with 32 GB of DDR4 memory operating at 3600 Mbps transfer rates. The Intel Core i7-13700K Raptor Lake CPU achieved performance scores of 20,90 in single-core testing and 16,542 in multi-core testing. In single-threaded benchmarks, the Intel Core i7-13700K is roughly 5% quicker than the Intel Core i5-13600K CPU, and it is 15% faster in multi-threaded workloads. Although the 13600K’s DDR5 variant performs significantly better, it still falls short of the 13700K in terms of performance.
credit: wccftech
The Core i5-13600DDR5 K’s benchmark results compared to DDR4 testing proved to be 2 percent quicker in single-threaded benchmarks and 11 percent faster in multi-threaded benchmarks. The Core i7-13700K is therefore up to 17% quicker than the Core i7-12700K CPU and is also faster than the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X. We must keep in mind that the Core i7-13700K is a 16-core and 24-thread component, whereas the Ryzen 9 5950X is a 16-core and 32-thread part.
You may view more Core i9-13900K benchmarks here and here, and here is where you can find additional Core i5-13600K benchmarks. The premium Core i9-13900K and Core i5-13600K desktop CPUs from Intel’s 13th generation Raptor Lake are scheduled to debut on the Z790 platform in October. The Ryzen 7000 CPU family from AMD, which also debuts in the fall of 2022, will compete against these CPUs.
The same hardware leaker that provided us with the first Core i5-13600K benchmarks, Enthusiastic Citizen (ECSM Official), has given the rumoured launch dates for Intel’s 13th Generation Raptor Lake family. Before the end of October, the new hybrid desktop chips will be ready to compete with the finest CPUs.
The sources used by the leaker claim that Raptor Lake will be unveiled by Intel on September 28 at the Intel Innovation 2022 event. If the reports are true, September 28 will also mark the lifting of the chipmaker’s review embargo, allowing customers to see the level of performance Raptor Lake offers.
According to sources for Enthusiastic Citizen, Raptor Lake will be available for purchase starting on October 17. The premium Z790 chipset and Raptor Lake K-series CPUs, including the Core i9-13900K, Core i7-13700K, and Core i5-13600K, will take the lead, just like Alder Lake did. The KF-series counterparts are also included in the first Raptor Lake lineup. Unfortunately, the non-K chips and less expensive H760 and B760 chipsets could not be available until next year.
Intel’s Raptor Lake non-K lineup and H760 and B760 chipsets appear to be reserved for CES 2023, precisely on January 5.

However, the actual release date will occur some time in the second half of January. With his sources, Enthusiastic Citizen was able to confirm that the H710 chipset wouldn’t be available this generation. Instead, it is rumoured that Intel will employ the H610 chipset with Raptor Lake. Keep in mind that a firmware upgrade enables compatibility for Raptor Lake on Intel’s current 600-series chipsets. Therefore, those who currently own Alder Lake motherboards are not required to switch to a 700-series motherboard if they want not to.
Raptor Lake will still support DDR4 in contrast to Zen 4, which has abandoned the standard. Raptor Lake comes with official DDR5-5600 support, in contrast to Alder Lake’s native support for DDR5-4800. Raptor Lake keeps the hybrid microarchitecture that combines Gracemont Efficiency cores and Raptor Cove Performance cores (P-cores) (E-cores). Raptor Lake has twice as many E-cores, bringing the total number of cores to 24. (eight P-cores and 16 E-cores).
As a result, the Core i9-13900K has an 8P+16E configuration while the Core i7-13700K is probably going to have an 8P-8E configuration. Last but not least, the Core i5-13600K features a 6P+8E design thanks to four additional efficiency cores. Raptor Lake has more E-cores and quicker clock rates in addition to a bigger L3 cache.
Once again, benchmark results for Intel’s Core i9-13900K Raptor Lake Desktop CPU have been leaked ahead of time, showing a significant multi-threaded performance improvement over its 12th Gen predecessor.
Using an 8 P-Core and 16 E-Core arrangement, the Intel Core i9-13900K Raptor Lake CPU examined in the leaked benchmarks is a QS sample with 24 cores and 32 threads. A total of 68 MB of “Smart Cache” are carried by the CPU in the form of a combined 36 MB of L3 cache and 32 MB of L2 cache. Additionally, it has an MTP of about 250W and a base (PL1) TDP of 125W.
credit: wccftech
We should anticipate similar clock rates from this sample since it appears to be operating at roughly the same 3.0 GHz base and 5.5 GHz boost clocks as the prior sample that was leaked yesterday. However, that same chip also showed boost clocks of up to 5.7 GHz. It is anticipated that the final chip will achieve single-core boost clocks of up to 5.7–5.8 GHz, however, this won’t be known for sure until the final version hits the market.
The T-Force Delta 32 GB (16 GB x 2) DDR5-6400 memory, a 360mm AIO cooler, and a 1500W Coolermaster Silence II power supply were used to test the CPU on the ASUS ROG Maximus Z690 Extreme motherboard. The GeForce RTX 3060 Ti 8 GB graphics card was utilized for both the 13900K and 12900K.
On average, the Intel Core i9-13900K Raptor Lake CPU outperformed the Core i9-12900K Alder Lake CPU by up to 10% in terms of single-core performance.
credit: wccftech
It is particularly impressive that the CPU outperformed its predecessors in multi-threaded tests by an average of 35 percent while also reaching up to 2.3 times the performance in PugetBench.
In terms of performance, the Cinebench R23 benchmark saw a 13.5 percent increase in single-threaded performance and a 40.2 percent increase in multi-threaded performance. Geekbench saw a 10 percent increase in single-threaded performance and a 23 percent gain in multi-threaded performance. CPU-z Bench saw a 9.5 percent increase in single-threaded performance and a 46.3 percent jump in multi-threaded performance. The Core i9-13900K outperformed its predecessor by up to 42 percent in Blender.
In other words, the Raptor Cove cores aren’t giving any architectural IPC uplifts, and the main performance benefits come from the higher clock rates and improved cache layout on the Raptor Lake device, which gives essentially no performance improvement at the same clocks.
The Intel Core i9-13900K Raptor Lake CPU’s package power increased to 420W (PL4) when running the XTU Benchmark, and the 360mm AIO cooler proved insufficient to keep it below 100C. Under premium coolers, the chip appears to be hitting its thermal limit, though this could be a problem with the QS sample. We won’t know for sure, but AMD’s Zen 4 will be significantly more efficient if Intel has overstepped its bounds with Raptor Lake’s power constraints.
credit: wccftech
Because these aren’t the actual clock speeds, the actual performance is likely to surpass this leak. We can anticipate a single-core improvement of 10% and a multi-core improvement of 40% over the Core i9-12900K at 5.8 GHz. Additionally, it ought to result in a multi-threaded CPU performance improvement of 50% over the 5950X. On the other side, AMD claims that Zen 4 enhances multi-threaded performance by 35% over Zen 3, so the competition will undoubtedly be exciting.
On the Z790 platform, the Intel 13th Gen Raptor Lake desktop CPUs, including the flagship Core i9-13900K, are anticipated to go on sale in October. The Ryzen 7000 CPU family from AMD, which also debuts in the fall of 2022, will compete against these CPUs.
The NUC 13 Extreme, code-named “Raptor Canyon,” has a bigger 13.9-litre case with Core i9 SKUs. This is a big improvement over the Dragon Canyon NUC 12 Extreme from Alder Lake, which had an 8-litre capacity. most likely to support next-generation graphics cards that are considerably more potent.

The device’s exact specifications and the Raptor Lake SKUs that will be used by it are not confirmed by the roadmap. Most likely following its predecessor, the 13th Gen Compute Element, code-named “Shrike Bay,” will add a desktop socket for more potent CPUs. If that’s the case, the NUC Raptor Canyon might have a 24-core and 32-thread arrangement throughout.
Only the availability of a PCIe x16 slot for graphics is confirmed by the Intel Product roadmap; the generation is left unspecified
credit: Videocardz
A marketing schedule for the NUC series has also been published. Raptor Canyon series is not yet included in this table, but Alder Country, a NUC X15 laptop series with Alder Lake and Arc GPUs, is. The consumer ship date of Q2’22 appears to have already been postponed, which is regrettably yet more indication of Intel’s difficulty in delivering Arc-based devices on schedule, even their own.
