As can be seen from the video, Intel technical marketing engineer Jason Xie demonstrated the upcoming processor with an Asus Z790 commercial motherboard and Corsair integrated water cooling. Although the specific model of the processor was not mentioned, it is known as the i9-13900KS.

Under full core load, the frequency on the p big core is 5.6 GHz, and the frequency on the e small core is 4.3 GHz. Without any modification, the two p cores can reach up to 6GHz, but the frequency has not always been maintained at this level. Jason explained that the frequency will depend on many factors such as power calculations, heat or the software itself.

According to the latest exposure information, Intel Core i9-13900KS has 24 cores and 32 threads, (8 large cores + 16 small cores), 32MB L3 cache, the main frequency of the large core reaches 3.2GHz, and the highest turbo frequency under Intel’s TVB overclocking technology Up to 6GHz, 200MHz higher than i9-13900K. In addition, the basic power consumption of the i9-13900KS has also increased, reaching 150W, which is 25W higher than that of the i9-13900K, and the highest turbo frequency power consumption is 253W.

Nvidia will hold a virtual “special speech” at that time, which means that there will be no live broadcast, but a rebroadcast, and it will not be an event in person. CEO Jensen Huang was absent from last year’s CES event, and since Nvidia hasn’t revealed who will be hosting the 2023 CES event, it’s likely he won’t be present this time either.

At CES in 2023, Nvidia will release two products, the RTX 40 series notebook graphics card and the RTX 4070 Ti desktop graphics card. According to preliminary information, the RTX 4070 Ti will be available on January 5th.

The 2023 CES opening keynote will be hosted by AMD CEO Dr. Lisa Su, who is expected to introduce the new Ryzen 7000 series and possibly RDNA3 mobile graphics. Unlike Nvidia’s event, this will be a live event and will also be live-streamed.

Intel confirmed it will be present at CES 2023, but did not announce any press conference or livestream. The company will launch the 13th generation Core non-K desktop CPU series and the 13th generation Core HX/HK/H laptop series. In addition, Intel should also reveal the pricing and release date of the Core i9-13900KS flagship Raptor Lake-S CPU, which will be clocked at 6GHz.

The Intel Core i9-13900KS has 8 P cores and 16 E cores for a total of 24 cores and 32 threads. , up to a “Thermal Velocity Boost” frequency of 6 GHz and a “Turbo Boost Max” frequency of 5.8 GHz, with P cores up to 5.4 GHz and E cores up to 4.3 GHz.

Core i9-13900KS 8+16 (24/32) – 3.2 / 6.0 GHz – 66 MB cache, 150W (PL1) / 253W (PL2)+

Core i9-12900KS 8+8 (16/24) – 3.4 / 5.5 GHz – 30 MB cache, 125W (PL1) / 241W (PL2)

This processor is equipped with 68 MB of cache, and the PL1 power rating can reach 150W, and it can reach 253W or more when fully loaded. The CPU is expected to hit the retail market in early 2023, priced at $799 (approximately RMB 5,569), and the quantity is limited.

In terms of single-core performance, this CPU has a 10% improvement compared to the i9-12900KS, and a multi-thread performance improvement of 40%.

Although the Core i9-13900KS will be $100~200 more expensive than the Core i9-13900K and has higher power, this chip will be the first processor that can reach a frequency of 6GHz by default. It is of great significance to the industry.

2022 is coming to a close, and neither brand is expected to launch a new desktop processor SKU for the rest of the year. Intel expects to flesh out its 13th Gen Core “Raptor Lake” desktop processor family in the first quarter of 2023, adding frequency-locked non-K-class SKUs covering all four brand extensions (i3/i5/i7/i9).

In addition to these, Intel is expected to unveil its new flagship, the Core i9-13900KS, with a boost clock that hits the 6GHz mark in an attempt to fend off the threat from AMD’s “Zen 4” with 3D vertical cache, a technology that enables “Zen 4” 3″‘s gaming performance jumps to on par with “Alder Lake”.

The i9-13900KS and AMD Ryzen 7000X3D processors are expected to be launched in the first half of 2023 (March-April), and AMD is expected to launch only 6-core/12-thread and 8-core/16-thread SKUs with 3DV cache technology. These will be single CCD packages. There’s no word on a 12-core or 16-core dual CCD, so the Ryzen 9 7950X3D isn’t in the plan.

AMD is expected to debut its entry-level A620 motherboard chipset in the second quarter of 2023. The chipset reportedly does not offer CPU overclocking capabilities, nor does it support PCIe Gen 5, and cap memory speeds at DDR5-4800.

Intel is expected to refresh its 13th-generation Core processor lineup with new SKUs in the third quarter of 2023. Right now, all that’s known about these new “Raptor Lake” processors is that they’re a 100-200MHz speed boost over the 13th Gen Core SKUs that existed at the time. This also means that the LGA1700 platform and “Raptor Lake” will be Intel’s mainstream throughout 2023, while the 14th-generation “Meteor Lake” won’t launch until 2024.

While “Meteor Lake” will dominate Intel’s mobile processor lineup, it will have a limited impact on desktops due to its core count of 6P+16E, despite improved IPC for both P and E cores. However, these processors will first appear on the new generation Socket LGA1851 platform.

In 2024, Intel will launch “Meteor Lake” and 15th generation “Arrow Lake” processors. Arrow Lake SoC will restore the number of cores to the familiar 8P+16E, compared to “Meteor Lake”, at least the IPC of the P core has improved. All in all, 2023 will be a tepid year for new processor/platform releases, mainly due to the PC industry downturn. Intel and AMD will make some less risky bets.

The exact clock rate and benchmarking platform are not known at this time.

i9-13900K official parameters

But assuming it is running at default RWD, the i9-13900KS will outperform the AMD Zen 4 Riptide R9-7950X by about 15% in multi-threading performance.

R9-7950X score

For reference, the R9-7950X can run a multi-threaded score of around 16,000 at 5.1 GHz on all cores.

At one point we speculated that next year’s Gen 14 Core would break 6GHz or come with a special 6GHz version of the i9-13900KS, and we didn’t expect it to come so soon.

At the Innovation On Innovation conference, Intel’s CEO announced that a processor that can be shipped at a default frequency of 6GHz will be released early next year for a limited time.

Although no name was mentioned, it is apparently the i9-13900KS, which will have the same specifications as the i9-13900K except for frequency, and of course, will inevitably consume more power.

Intel has previously released two similar limited editions of extremely high frequency.

The i9-9900KS of the 10th generation Core has 8 cores and 16 threads, accelerates at up to 5GHz and consumes 127W.

The i9-12900KS of the 12th generation Core has 16 cores and 24 threads, accelerates up to 5.5GHz and consumes 150W base power and 241W maximum power.

This could be Intel’s effort to crack down on the upcoming Ryzen 7000X 3D series, which is scheduled to launch at CES in 2023.

At the Intel Technology Roadshow in Israel, the company confirmed plans for its Raptor Lake series. Intel’s vice president said at the event that the Intel Raptor Lake series exists only because Meteor Lake won’t be ready on time. The processor is expected to be able to boost its eight “Raptor Cove” P cores to the 6.00 GHz mark, and the i9-13900K is rumored to have a maximum boost frequency of 5.70 GHz.

In addition, Intel also said that Raptor Lake is the first architecture that will break the 8GHz world record. In fact, this has been confirmed by previous results of overclocking to 8GHz, but even this frequency is not enough to break the all-time record. To do this, Raptor Lake has to hit 8.7 GHz, and probably a lot of liquid nitrogen is needed in the process.

At the Tech Tour in Israel, Intel confirmed that “Raptor Lake” brings 15% single-threaded and 41% multi-threaded performance improvements over “Alder Lake.”

The improvement of single-threaded performance comes from the higher IPC of the “Raptor Lake” P core, plus its frequency of up to 5.70GHz; and the improvement of multi-threaded performance is due to the improvement of the IPC of the P core and the increase of the frequency of the P and E cores. combine. E-core clusters get more shared L2 cache, which also improves their performance.
