    Intel's new Core i9-13900K Raptor Lake CPU is being praised by lots of users and media outlets, but have you ever asked yourselves the question, how much has REALLY improved between the 13900K and its predecessor 12900K?
    This quick and dirty comparison will shed some light on this matter. Should you really even be thinking about upgrading?

    Question, what happens if you turn off "E" cores on both alderlake and raptor lake then lock clock speeds {both being same frequency}, do they then perform exactly the same? Thanks your video is great!

      Iirc they will perform very similarly, within a few percentage points. Pretty sure 13th gen only has minor changes to cache and more e cores and frequency.

      Nice picked up a 12900KS for $240 last week. Goodbye Ryzen tired of all of AMD’s issues after using them for 20+ years.
      They used to be great value that the savings could be put into a better GPU but now the CPU’s almost the same price with motherboards actually costing more then Intel.
      Let the kool-aid drinking AMD users have their X3D chips, was nothing but a band-aid to begin with due to a poor design.

      @@greebuh what I get a kick out of is how AMD is touted as so efficient with half the TDP of Intel. If that was really the case they should be running no hotter then 50c but in reality if the Ryzens actually drew some real power they would just burn up like all the other AMD processors before them.
      People can say what they want about Intel running hot but they don’t know AMD’s long history of overheating products.
      On edit:
      Forgot to bring up the X3D chips being locked. AMD was always known for unlocked CPU’s and could make a fortune if they offered unlocked X3D CPU’s but that obviously can’t happen because AMD knows that they would incinerate themselves. Not a good sign when AMD themselves have no faith in unlocked X3D’s since they know it’s nothing but a band-aid fix like I mentioned to a fundamental design flaw in their architecture.

    Excellent review as always. My biggest problem with the 13th gen is that it consumes so much more power than than the 12th gen and 12th gen already consumes a lot of power. IMO anything above the 13th gen i5, particularly the i5 13400f(but the 13600k is also manageable) consumes too much power for me to consider at any price or performance.

    Is Intel still doing Tick Tock releases?
    I'm curious what the 14th Gen IPC will do.. that should be a Tick right? The 13th was the Tock? It sounds silly but I think you get me..
    I have a 10850K at 5.1, So skipping a few generations is fine but keen for the IPC Bump soon because I plan on RTX Gaming with a new gpu this year sometime.

      Their tick tock cycle was a new architecture on a new manufacturing node followed by a smaller node generation with the same architecture.

      I'd wait for 15th gen (Arrow Lake) because it'll be using 20A/7nm which is a massive jump, but not only that. It also will have increased IPC. I have no idea what clock will it can go. I'm still using 12700K/Z690. You are still using 10th gen, so you definitely should wait for 15th gen since 14th gen is more mobile focused rather than desktop. *EDITED*: I'm mistaken. The Arrow Lake do not uses 18A node. The Lunar Lake will featured this. However, unless Intel changed their roadmap. Otherwise, both Meteor Lake and Arrow Lake will featured 20A/7nm.

    Thanks for the vid but you can't use a 3090 when testing CPU perf when the 4090 exist. You are easily GPU bottlenecked even at1080p and should therefore test with the best possible GPU to give the most accurate results.

Rather pointing out a fact that you are heavily GPU-bound so the results can differ quite much more between the 12900k and 13900k when removing a quite significant GPU-bottleneck like the 3090 with a 4090.

      I believe so... I am currently torn between buying an X670E motherboard and 7800X3D CPU and buying a 13900KS (as I currently have a 12900K). I want to get one to upgrade my current PC with and then build another PC that I can sell with my spare parts!
      But I really don't know what to do... While the 12900K is great, it seems that the 7800X3D is better for games (which is my primary PC usage purpose) and uses less power. BUT, I could also just snag a 13900KS and a cheaper Z790 motherboard for around the same total price as the upgrade to the AMD parts... I really don't know what to do here....
