Intel's 13th Gen Raptor Lake Lineup Leaks
Courtesy of Wccftech, we now have a complete picture of what Intel is planning to announce on the 27th of this month. The information is extremely detailed and covers no less than 14 different processor SKUs, ranging from the Core i9-13900K/KF to the Core i5-13400/F. All of the CPUs except the Core i5-13400/F and the upcoming Core i3 models will support memory speeds of up to DDR5 5600, whereas the lower end parts will be limited to DDR5 4800. All 13th Gen Intel CPUs should also support DDR4 3200 memory. Just as with the 12th Gen CPUs, the 13th Gen KF and F will not support ECC memory and of course, no IGP.
There's nothing that really stands out when looking at the specs and most things are expected based on earlier rumours. The Core i9-13900K/KF will indeed boost up to 5.8 GHz on up to two cores and all P-cores will boost up to 5.4 GHz, with the E-cores boosting up to 4.3 GHz. The Core i7-13700K/KF will have a much bigger gap here, compared to the the Core i7-12700K/KF versus the Core i9-12900K/KF where there was a 200 MHz boost frequency gap, which has now been extended to 400 MHz, as the Core i7-13700K/KF only boosts up to 5.4 GHz on two cores. Interestingly, the base clock frequency for the P-cores seems to have dropped 200 MHz on theK/KF parts, compared to 12th Gen equivalents in the product stack. For the remaining details, have a look at the data provided below.

In regards to your 12600k what alot of people like you will do is buy an i7 13700 when it drops sub $250 and about half of that purchase price will be covered by selling your 12600k.
Going from a 12600k to a 13700 for $130-150 out of pocket while still being within 90% of the performance of Meteorlake in most real world performance metrics is obviously a more logical path then dropping $800+ on a completely new platform that may or may not even be stable.Don't buy into hype, there's nothing about meteorlake that scream Earth shattering. Lunarlake is the one there hyping as the biggest breakthrough since the original Core 2 Duo. Intel does this every single die shrink, claim 20%+ increase and uses tons of flashy buzzwords but in actual real world programs/scenarios the gap isn't much (unless your staring at niche benchmarks the difference between a 13th gen and 14th gen won't even be noticeable for 95% of people).
I don't do that but I can change from Ryzen 2xxx to Ryzen 5xxx without changing the board, that's a massive benefit Intel hasn't offered since LGA 775 not to mention Intel's boards get scarce when they EOL their (usually) two processor gen which go into the same board. With AMD there will be less of this issue because AM4 was supported for 5 years! Ok 4 if we're strictly counting processors from 1xxx to 5800x3D. Have you tried replacing Intel boards anytime in the past decade for instance o_O
I'd say go at least for an i5 CPU with that RTX3080.
The video is very conclusive because low end i5 processors from those generations are tested, not high end.

I rarely game these days, "more cores" is a bigger priority for me. But yes your point about the i5 from 4 years back being better in gaming is valid.
j/k
j/k o_O:roll::clap:
Obviously that bottlenecking never stopped me for playing everything.
It was just psychological issue when I was watching the gpu at 70-80% usage.
QX6700->4770K->3700X->5800X3D
1. Below you have a demo with 11600KF 6c/6t @ 4GHz. Default runs with 6c/12t, 4.6GHz all cores and 4.9GHz 2 cores. My AIO keeps it with ok temperatures with 4.8GHz all cores in heavy load or 5GHz in gaming. No oc needed for RTX 3070Ti, stock is enough.
Age: 15 months.
Target: as long as I'll keep the video card (and I'll keep it for a long time from now on)
Can I upgrade in the future? Sure you do! It's just an i5.
2. The link you posted is equal to zero when the 2700X is surpassed in games by the i3-10100, 10300, R3 3300X and is at the level of an i5-8400.
And I can always upgrade when needed.
Revision is the version of the chip.
You have to use revision B0, not stepping B0, stepping can be 0, 1, 2, 3, etc... Revision can be A0, A1, B0, B1, etc.
Zen4 is using thermal management, so good cooling boosts performance and high temps reduce power. Prolonged heavy load dropping to TDP figure should mean OEMs can choose appropriate coolers.

Highest 7950X score I know of vs this 13900K :
From a few things i have seen, i think AMD has lost this round, but of course, until reviewers actually get their hands on both, it is all nought but speculation and guessing.
