Obviously, the “confidential” samples that Intel delivers to some people are only confidential in name, especially when they are in China. This is how we could see a new video, very complete the channel “EJ Hardware” on Youtube’s clone Bilibili. It is difficult to say how mature the i9-13900K sample used for the video and tests is. The processor was used with an MSI Z690 GODLIKE motherboard and obviously compared to the Core i9-12900K. The PC used for the tests had a Colorful RTX 3090 card and Gamer RGB DDR5-4800 chipsets. The scores confirm once again (except for a few details), the information we have so far on the Raptor Lake. Here are the figures under R23 between the 12900K and the 13900K tested here.
The other information concerns the operating temperature of the I9-13900K which seems to be significantly lower than that of the i9-12900K (both being set at the same frequency for the test).
However, we will have to wait until the second part of October to be able to buy a Raptor Lake processor. Until then, it is likely that more refined tests will make their appearance from the end of September, around the date of the official announcement of the Raptor Lake range by Intel.
