Intel aims to continue its rise in the 12th generation Alder Lake family with the 13th generation Raptor Lake series. As a matter of fact, the Intel i5-13600HX performance test results released today revealed that the chip with an increased number of cores made a difference to its competitors and predecessors.
Intel i5-13600HX made a strong impression with its performance test!
Some test results that have emerged in the past months have revealed the potential of Intel’s new Raptor Lake series. Here, it was revealed that the new generation processors make a difference between 38 and 70 percent according to different usage scenarios such as games and applications.
Today, the performance test for the Intel i5-13600HX has emerged. Of course, some unknown features of the processor also appeared here. For example, its predecessor, the i5-12600H, introduced last year, had 16 threads along with 12 cores.
But Intel is breaking that balance with the i5-13600HX. The new chip has 14 cores, of which 4 are on performance and 8 on efficiency. There are 20 threads in total. This allows it to be positioned at the top of the mobile processors in the middle and upper class.
In fact, this chip is expected to be used next to powerful graphics cards such as RTX 4070 and 4080 in many gaming computers that will be introduced next year. But we also need to talk about the only minus, power consumption.
Intel’s new favorite i5-13600HX is expected to have a TDP of 55W. Considering the increased core count and improved performance, this is an acceptable value that isn’t too high. But now, on the mobile side, processors with TDP values such as 15W and 25W are becoming more frequent.
Of course, this chip should be evaluated according to its performance class as well as mobile. Because the TDP values of the most powerful chips such as the i9-13900K can go up to 350W. It is even possible to increase this value much higher by overclocking. Therefore, 55W is quite normal for this chip, which will be found in the same laptop as the RTX series graphics cards.
The performance test comparison of the i5-13600HX and its predecessor, the i5-12600H, is as follows:
| Average | Productivity | Creativity | Sensitivity | System | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Core i5-13600HX | 1573 | 1458 | 1800 | 1321 | 14 cores 20 threads 32GB DDR4-3200Mhz RAM |
| Core i5-12600H | 1350 | 1268 | 1747 | 752 | 12 cores 16 threads 16GB DDR5-4800Mhz RAM |
| Core i5-12600H | 1760 | 1622 | 2013 | 1506 | 12 cores 16 threads 32GB DDR5-4800Mhz RAM |
