Intel's 13th Gen Core CPU Lineup Seemingly Leaks a Month Ahead of the Launch

[TheLostSwede]

Although this information hasn't been verified yet, it looks very plausible, but there are also some crucial bits missing. However, we now appear to have the full list of Intel Core 13000-series CPUs, that ranges from the Core i9-13900KF to the Core i3-13100. The information comes via Bilibili and should as such be taken with a grain of salt, but there are no big surprises here, except possibly the fairly low base clocks for some of the Core i9-13900K and KF SKUs, which sits at 3 GHz, compared to 3.2 GHz for the 12th gen equivalents.

What the leaker doesn't appear to have gotten hold of, is the boost frequency for the CPUs, possibly because Intel has kept it away from its partners so far. Earlier rumours have suggested boost speeds of 5.5 GHz or potentially even higher for a future KS SKU. Thanks to Intel adding additional E-cores into the mix, even the lower-end Core i5 CPUs will get four to eight E-cores this time around, whereas the 12th gen CPUs only offered E-cores on the Core i5-12600K and KF. Sadly the Core i3-13100 still gets to make do with only four P-cores. Intel is expected to reveal its 13th gen Core CPUs on the 27th or 28th of September.

Base frequency of 2GHz that's refreshing

Would be great if non-confirmed leaks could stop being posting on TPU.

Back to topic. 3GHz - and 125tdp, nice... still behind amd...

Plus 65W TDP on these low base clock CPU's.

If it doesn't kill performance, then it's a step in the right direction. Especially for power consumption sensitive folks.

 

[AlwaysHope]

Amazing what they can do still on 10nm.

these lowish clocks remind me of K10. I am glad to see all i5s are now getting some efficiency cores as well. Good to see normal 65W TDPs.

But weren't they saying that their 10nm is better than others 7nm???

Dunno, you tell me.

Intel Claims its 10nm Manufacturing Process is More Powerful Than TSMC 7nm Process, But There's a Major Catch - MySmartPrice

Intel has seemingly claimed that its 10nm processors can perform better than 7nm TSMC chips, but stands far off TSMC’s perch.

TSMC dossier (4): Technology contention among world-class leaders

Intel claims that TSMC's 7nm process is the equivalent of Intel's 10nm process. This may be true in terms of tech specs but Intel hasn't really outraced still TSMC. Samsung, on several occasions, announced they led TSMC in launching more advanced process technologies, but it failed to secure key...

11th and 12th Gen sure didn't last long eh?

 

[john_]

Will base frequency remain at 2GHz and power consumption under 65W if I start Solitaire and Minesweeper at the same time?

 

[ModEl4]

I wonder if i3 13300 will be 4P+4E design, that would be a very interesting choice since it should nearly match i5 12400 in both gaming and multithreading performance driving even lower competitive solutions like Ryzen 5 5600/5600X.

 

[Deleted member 185088]

The i7s look the most interesting. Hopefully they will be priced reasonably.

Base clock means nothing anyways.

My 11700 has a 2.5 base clock and always boosts to 4.8 right anyway.

i'm on team red now, but i assume if it boosts like that right away is because you give him a reason to.

Intel works very similar to AMD when it comes to boost and base clocks.

 

[Bloax]

All I can tell you is that the i5-13400 and 13500 look very tasty in the nearby future where half-decent DDR5 is cheap, and where the processor itself can be BCLK'd to the moon.
Unless the System Agent voltage is unlocked for these new processors, in which case DDR4 will also work.

As currently you get stuck with either poop latency 3500-4000 MT/s (depending on memory IC and luck) or decent latency 3100-3400, which is rather suboptimal.


mmm, cheap systems which run like crazy ...

 

[Daven]

Given similar IPC between Alder Lake and Raptor Lake according to the rumors, looks like just the Core i9 SKUs will give the only major performance improvements over last gen. These improvements will mostly be centered on highly multithreaded tasks. Single, lightly threaded tasks and gaming will be up slightly with higher clocks and a bit more cache.

I would say that Zen 4 and Raptor Lake would only be worth the upgrade from high end Zen 2/Comet Lake and older platforms. If your income has increased and you only have a budget platform, then any upgrade even within the same generation is worth it.

Yes, when i load up a game.

Unlocked it does 4.4 all core in R23.

 

[1d10t]

Lowering base clock in favor of E cores, even iGPU still the same 32EU and I bet it's same ol' UHD Graphics.

not gonna happen, might as well make the cbest of it by making fun of them. That reminds me, grabbing my ducky to go swimming with all this leaking.

 

[dyonoctis]

Rumors are also saying that those C0 revision i5 are actually a refresh of alder lake

Node names have long been decoupled from actual measurement methods. That is why Intel went from 10nm to calling it Intel 7. TSMC Samsung and others long ago stopped following any kind of standard, so Intel has merely followed suit.

Anyone not aware of that at this point, is just speaking out of ignorance.

If you look at the MT/mm2 (million transistors per square mm) and compare TSMC N7 with Intel 7, you get an aspect that makes them roughly equivalent.


"But TSMC’s vice president of corporate research, Dr. Philip Wong, was keen to point out that after introducing his company’s latest node, despite a history of the node naming scheme actually having some relevance to the silicon features etched into the wafer, the node names are now effectively meaningless."


"Today, these numbers are just numbers. They’re like models in a car – it’s like BMW 5-series or Mazda 6. It doesn’t matter what the number is, it’s just a destination of the next technology, the name for it.
So, let’s not confuse ourselves with the name of the node with what the technology actually offers. "
-Philip Wong, TSMC

TSMC’s 7nm, 5nm, and 3nm “are just numbers… it doesn’t matter what the number is”

"These numbers are just numbers. They're like models in a car - it’s like BMW 5-series or Mazda 6."
