For those who don’t know, Intel Raptor Lake Refresh will bring minor optimizations to existing 13th Generation Raptor Lake processors, exactly as its name suggests. In addition, it will continue to use Intel 7 processing nodes and will be compatible with existing LGA 1700/1800 motherboards. Here are the innovations in architecture:
- Same architecture as Raptor Lake (Raptor Cove P-Cores + Gracemont E-Cores)
- Same Process node as Raptor Lake (Intel 7 aka 10nm++)
- Higher clock speeds beyond 6.0 GHz
- Support for higher DDR5 memory DIMMs
- Higher power consumption (Near 300W)
- Compatibility with existing LGA 1700/1800 socket motherboards
Introducing Intel Raptor Lake Refresh processors
If we start with the best Core i9 series, Intel has five models on the list. These will be Core i9-14900K, Core i9-14900KF, Core i9-14900F, Core i9-14900T and Core i9-14900. At this point, processors that maintain the same core configuration as Raptor Lake will have 35-125W TDP, up to 36 MB L3 cache and DDR5-5600 support (native).
There is a significant change in clock speeds. At this point, it is stated that the Core i9-14900K will reach speeds of 6.0 GHz. Other models will appear at 5.8GHz speeds.
