ill be waiting for a 13900K for sure........ Just wondering is the 14900K will have 1 P core and 56 E-Cores...
Pretty nice upgrade from 4770k or 3800xRaptor Lake is a joke. All Intel did was bin the cores a bit better and slap on more E-cores. This is useless for gamers, especially if they don't overclock.
Maybe people who do need the cores for multicore workloads might consider it, but that extra cost to upgrade and to also cool the chip so it doesn't throttle... That's also disregarding the wattage necessary.
I'm more curious about the IMC, if anything. Has it improved, or is it still a total dice roll?
People in tweeter seem to care too much from Cinebench score. This is just fuel for AMD. Watch AMD release 32-cores just to get back at intel for a pointless battle.Raptor Lake is a joke.

This is precisely it. All I see is: more E-cores, and higher turbo clocks.People in tweeter seem to care too much from Cinebench score. This is just fuel for AMD. Watch AMD release 32-cores just to get back at intel for a pointless battle.

No gain?This is precisely it. All I see is: more E-cores, and higher turbo clocks.
The cache was increased, but doesn't seem to do anything.
Hence, I'm more looking forward to seeing what the IMCs are like.
You do realize that's comparing 4.9 GHz with 5.5 GHz, right?No gain?
Look at min fps here

Minimum framerates of games evaluated on an engineering sample of Intel's Core i9-13900K have improved.
Recently, an Intel 13th Generation Core CPU was evaluated. The future K-series CPU will be a 24-core, 32-thread processor with no power limits. This is not a retail processor, but rather a qualifying ...www.guru3d.com
There is no all core 5.5ghz vs 4.9ghz here, so the gain isn't from just the cpu frequencyYou do realize that's comparing 4.9 GHz with 5.5 GHz, right?
Did you look at post from guru3d?It's the Alder Lake with extra e-cores. If the IMC quality hasn't increased significantly, I'll be skipping this one until the next socket with faster e-cores and better per clock performance.
Testing methodology is still moot until the 13900K is clocked down to the same settings as the 12900K.There is no all core 5.5ghz vs 4.9ghz here, so the gain isn't from just the cpu frequency
How many % is 4.9 to 5.5? IF it would be magical all core?
~12%
Difference in min fps in 1080p was ~28%
Looks to me that the cache is doing some magic![]()
Show me one of the tested games using on core. Try to show me one game made the last 5 years that use ONE coreTesting methodology is still moot until the 13900K is clocked down to the same settings as the 12900K.
Even if it's only one core boosting up, that still exaggerates results, as many games still use one core.
Die is never big enough for us overclockers, that's for shure 🤓🤟I am a bit worried about the possible cooling issues with these chips. Probably eating more watts than 12900KS, but how big is the die?
