Intel has made the i5-13490F processor available on the e-commerce platform for RMB 1599.
Intel has brought more special models for the 13th generation Core, such as the i7-13790F, compared to the i5-12490F, which is only available in the 12th generation Core.
From the CPU-Z parameters and scores given by netizens, this processor is a B0 step revision but has very special specifications. Compared to the i7-13700F and even the i7-13700KF, the 30 MB cache has increased directly to 33 MB, which is not as strong as the i9’s 36 MB, but stronger than a series of i7s, but still 16 cores and 24 threads.
From the point of view of running points, this processor can reach 836 points for a single core, 12139.8 points for a multi-core, and a magnification of 14.52.
For reference, the average single-core score of the i9-12900KF included in CPU-Z is 816 points, while the i7-13700K can reach 864 points and the i9-13900K can reach 902 points.
In terms of multi-core, the Intel Core i9-12900KS, which is also 24 threads, scored an average of 11879 points, while the i7-13700K scored 12430 points. Overall, the performance of this processor is stronger than that of the 12th generation Core i9, but there is no significant gap compared with the 13th generation Core i7 and i9, which may be the reason for the ES version. It is expected that there will be better performance when it is released later.
