The 13th generation of Intel Core processors known as Raptor Lake is expected to go on sale later this year. As their launch is relatively close, we start to see benchmarks based on samples of these CPUs that have been sent to contributors. As usual, These are preliminary results. as they are samples and do not have the most updated and compatible drivers.
On this occasion, someone with a sample of Raptor Lake in their hands has revealed the results of the processor in UserBenchmark. The CPU that will come out this year seems to be about 20% faster compared with current flagship products from AMD and Intel.
The Raptor Lake would be a notable advance against Alder Lake
Intel's Raptor Lake-S 'U3E1' Processor Benchmarked it had 24 cores and could process 32 threads simultaneously while running at a base clock of 2,4 GHz and a turbo clock of 4,6 GHz. This corroborates previous leaks and benchmark results indicating that Intel's next-generation desktop chips will integrate eight performance cores with 2-way SMT as well as 16 efficiency cores for light weight tasks.
The system also appears to be equipped with the Intel Arc Alchemist A770 graphics card. But it has been seen that it only has 1 GB of memory and performs very poorly, so it is possible that it is believed that the GPU has been detected incorrectly.
Intel's current flagship, the Core i9-12900K, is a 16-core, 24-thread processor running at 3,2 GHz – 5 GHz. On AMD's part, its Ryzen 9 5950X from AMD is a 16 core, 32 thread chip running at 3,4GHz – 4,6GHz. threads or less. But on server workloads that use 64 threads, it is about 20% faster than Core i9-12900K and Ryzen 9 5950X.
Raptor Lake's 24 physical cores along with its thread dispatching hardware appear to be more efficient than AMD's 16 high-performance Zen 3 cores with simultaneous multi-threading technology support. But we must not forget that if this year Intel is going to release these Raptor Lake, AMD is not going to rest and is going to release its Zen 4 with up to 16 cores.
