ASRock mentioned “more power hungry future CPUs” in the press release, which is as follows:

 ASRock launched a brand new PHANTOM GAMING series motherboard today, the high-end model is Z790 NOVA WiFi7. NOVA represents the dazzling light and energy of the explosion, which can bring players a surging gaming experience.

 The new motherboard supports Wi-Fi 7 as well as 5Gbps LAN for the fastest internet connection possible, and supports future higher power CPUs.

ASRock confirmed that the Z790 NOVA motherboard adopts 20+1+1 SPS Dr.MOS power supply design.

The LGA 1700 socket supports Intel’s 12th generation Alder Lake and 13th generation Raptor Lake CPUs, and the chances of Meteor Lake entering the desktop platform in the future are very small, so the “higher power consumption CPU” here should refer to Raptor Lake Refresh.

It was previously reported that Intel planned to provide DLVR (Digital Linear Voltage Regulator) for 13th generation processors, but then confirmed that it was disabled on the 13th generation / 700 series platform, so Raptor Lake Refresh is likely to be equipped with DLVR.

It is reported that Intel plans to launch Raptor Lake Refresh in the second half of this year, with a clock frequency of 6.2GHz-6.5GHz.

The Core i9-13900K is a 24-core processor with 8 P-core and 16 E-core. Thanks to Intel’s “Thermal Velocity Boost” (TVB) technology, the chip is capable of a maximum core frequency of 5.8 GHz. Splave overclocks the Core i9-13900K to 8.2 GHz, a 41% increase over Intel’s official acceleration frequency.

The Core i9-13900K shows tremendous overclocking potential, compared to the previous generation Core i9-12900K which only reached 7.6 GHz, the Core i9-13900K breaks the record of the Core i9-12900K by 8%.

AMD’s Zen 4 processors also have strong overclocking capabilities. For example, the single-core frequency of the Ryzen 9 7950X was recently overclocked to up to 7.2 GHz, and the frequency of all cores was up to 6.5 GHz. However, according to HWBot, 7.4 GHz (7,471.96 MHz) is the highest value reached by the Ryzen 9 7950X. As a result, the Core i9-13900K clocks in about 11% higher than the Ryzen 9 7950X.

Whether the 13th generation Core processor can continue to dominate the overclocking rankings will be worthy of attention. AMD’s outdated FX-series chips are known for their super-overclocking abilities, and the FX-8370 still holds the record for top overclocking at 8.7 GHz (8722.78 MHz), a feat from 2014.

While Intel and AMD continue to compete with each other in the overclocking game, consumers care more about out-of-the-box performance.

Although it’s not the first time we’ve seen a new product sales rush, @CapFrameX has also included a screenshot of the actual proof.

The text reads to the effect that

"Thank you for placing an order for this item with Caseking on September 27, 2022, and a contract will be entered into upon delivery of the item.

Please also see below for contract details, return and exchange benefits, and merchant terms.

Status: Public"

Below you will find details of the product, the original price of 749 euros, taxes and fees, and the actual amount paid.

In addition, user QIX posted this image on the PCGHX forum at 19:15 on the night Intel lifted the ban.

CapFrameX claims that the CPU SKU was not listed on the Caseking website the day before until Intel officially announced the lifting of the ban.

Specifications.

"Intel's 13th generation Raptor Lake desktop processors feature the new Raptor Cove high-performance cores (P-cores), while doubling the number of Gracemont small cores (E-cores) and increasing cache for a total of 24 cores/32 threads.

It also doubles the number of Gracemont cores (E-cores) and increases cache for a total of 24 cores/32 threads.

At Intel's 7 Ultra (10nm ESF) process node, the i9-13900K is capable of 6.0 GHz -- a 15% increase in single-threaded performance and a 41% jump in multi-threaded performance.

Even better, the processor is compatible with the 12th generation LGA 1700 platform and the newly launched Z790 / H770 / B760 chipset motherboards."

YouTuber @Moore’s Law has Dead put out a chart in his latest video showing that the upcoming 13th Gen Raptor Lake-S series desktop CPUs will be a bit more expensive than their 12th Gen predecessors.

It is said that the Core i9-13900K and i9-13900KF should be more expensive than the 12900 and 12900KF by $70 (about 490.7 yuan) to $140 (about 981.4 yuan), while the Core i5-13600K / KF should be at 12600K / KF The basis rose by 40 US dollars (about 280.4 yuan) to 80 US dollars (about 560.8 yuan).

i9-13900K is in the range of 659~729 US dollars, about 4619.59 yuan~5110.29 yuan

i9-13900KF is in the range of 629~699 US dollars, about 4409.29 yuan~4899.99 yuan

i7-13700K is in the range of 459~519 US dollars, about 3217.59 yuan~3638.19 yuan

i7-13700KF is in the range of 439~489 US dollars, about 3077.39 yuan ~ about 3427.89 yuan

i5-13600K is in the range of 329~349 US dollars, about 2306.29 yuan~2446.49 yuan

i5-13600KF is in the range of 299~329 US dollars, about 2095.99 yuan~2306.29 yuan

The starting price of the Core i7-13700K and i7-13700KF should be $55 (about 385.55 yuan) to $105 (about 736.05 yuan) more expensive than the 12700 and 12700KF.

If nothing else, Intel’s 13th-generation Core processors will be released in the early morning of September 28, Beijing time, and will be available on October 20. The first models include i9, i7, and i5 K series models.

The news shows that the 13th-generation Core i9K model will be available for pre-sale in China after its release on September 28. After that, there seems to be a domestic launch event on October 13, when the i7K and i5K models will be available for pre-sale.

Intel announced the pricing of the Alder Lake 12th-generation Core processor and Z690 motherboard chipset in October last year.

Among them, i9-12900K is 4999 yuan, i9-12900KF 4699 yuan, i7-12700K 3199 yuan, i7-12700KF 2999 yuan, i5-12600K 2299 yuan, i5-12600KF 2099 yuan.

Compared with the starting price of the corresponding models of the 11th generation, the flagship i9-12900K is 300 yuan more expensive, while the i7 and i5 series are 250 yuan and 400 yuan higher respectively.

Judging from the specs, this CPU should be an ES version of the Core i9-13900K – with a maximum multiplier of only 50x and a clock rate of no more than 5 GHz with the external frequency locked at 100 MHz.

The core configuration is 8P+16E (24C/32T), and thanks to the extra energy-efficient cores, its multi-threaded performance (1400+) still exceeds the average score of the 8P+8E (16C/24T) 12th-gen Alder Lake Core i9-12900K.

(Portal: CPU-Z)

In the single-threaded test, the ES version of the i9-13900K outperformed the i9-12900KF, but was slightly behind the i9-12900K.

It should be noted, however, that the test platform used an MSI PRO Z690-A DDR4 motherboard with a CL 19 latency 32GB @ DDR4-2666 system memory (instead of a higher frequency).

However, even with the lower processor/memory frequencies and the Windows 10 operating system, which has poor support for hybrid CPU architectures, the P-core/E-core still has 4.99 / 2.99 GHz cores.

In addition, the ES version of the processor topped 100°C during testing, meaning it may have hit the temperature wall. I’m sure the retail SKU, which will be officially released this fall, will bring us even more surprises.
