Intel unveiled its 13th Gen Intel Core desktop processors at a global launch event last month. Now, less than a month after the global launch, the company has launched its latest desktop processor in India. Named as Raptor Lake, the newly launched 13th Gen Intel Core processors come with a clock speed of up to 5.8GHz, which the company says is ideal for gaming, streaming and recording experience.
Intel’s 13th generation Intel Core processors include a total of six unlocked processors, including i9-13900K, i9-13900KF, i7-13700K, i9-13700KF, i9-13600K and i9-13600KF. These processors come with up to 24 cores, up to 32 threads, and they offer up to 36MB of Smart Cache, up to 32MB of total L2 cache, a maximum turbo core frequency of up to 5.8Hz, a maximum efficiency frequency of up to 4.3GHz. , Intel UHD Graphics 770 GPU, and up to 128GB of storage space.
Intel’s 13th generation Intel Core processors come with either the Intel 600 or the newer Intel 700 series chipset motherboards that provide both the latest DDR5 memory support and DDR4 memory support. The chipmaker says its latest desktop processor range delivers up to 15 percent better single-threaded performance and up to 41 percent better multi-threaded performance. These processors also offer support for PCIe Gen 5.0 and are 16 lanes away from the processor.
In addition, the company’s Raptor Lake processor range comes with a host of advanced functionalities including Intel Adaptive Boost Technology and Thermal Velocity Boost which boosts the processor clock frequency based on power and thermal headroom during a given workload.
As far as availability is concerned, Intel said that its 13th Gen Intel Core Desktop ‘K’ processor will be available in India from October 21, 2022.
Intel 700 Series Chipset
Intel also launched its 700 series chipset in India. This chipset was unveiled last month along with the Raptor Lake processor. Now the company is bringing this processor series to India. Intel says this processor series offers eight additional PCIe Gen 4.0 lanes combined with PCIe Gen 3.0 to provide a total of 28 lanes from the chipset. It also offers two increased USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports and DMI Gen 4.0, which the company says increases chipset-to-CPU throughput for faster access to peripheral devices and networking. It also has support for Intel 600 chipset-based motherboards. There is no information about their availability in India yet.
