We now know many details about Intel’s 13th generation Raptor Lake processors. Although similar information from many sources reinforced the information about the processors, we did not have any information on the price point. However, the Canadian online retailer, which previously listed the prices of Ryzen 7000 processors, is now revealing the price information of 13th generation Raptor Lake processors.
The Intel 13th generation Raptor Lake processor family will use a hybrid core design. The new processor lineup will feature P cores optimized for performance and E cores designed for efficiency. The performance-oriented Golden Cove cores we see in the company’s 12th generation Alder Lake processors leave their place to the new Raptor Cove cores. Cores focused on efficiency will retain the existing Gracemont core architecture with minor improvements.
