Intel Raptor Lake comes with significant performance gains

Raptor Lake architecture, which Intel has scaled up to 24 cores and will bring against the Zen 4-based Ryzen 7000 chip series, comes with significant performance increases compared to the current generation.

How is Intel Raptor Lake performance?

Intel Raptor Lake architecture will first arrive on the desktop with the S-series in the third quarter of the year. The H, U and HX segments are expected to be on the market towards the end of the year. So the first target is the desktop.

Intel Core i9-13900K, which will be the most powerful desktop processor of the Rocket Lake series, comes with a total of 24 cores and 32 threads. 16 cores of this will be devoted to efficiency.

The new processor achieved very high scores in Ashes of Singularity tests. However, it was behind the previous generations as it was an engineering example. Leaks from Intel presentations reveal the clear picture.

Rocket Lake architecture brings 8-15 percent performance increase in single core and 30-40 percent performance increase in multi-core compared to Alder Lake architecture. It will also seek market share against 3D Ryzen processors, especially with its high cache capacity. Possible processors of the Raptor Lake series and their assigned cache values ​​are as follows:

• Intel Core i9 K-Series (8 Golden + 16 Grace) = 24 cores/32 threads/68 MB
• Intel Core i7 K-Series (8 Golden + 8 Grace) = 16 cores/24 threads/54MB
• Intel Core i5 K-Series (6 Golden + 8 Grace) = 14 cores/20 threads/44MB
• Intel Core i5 S-Series (6 Golden + 4 Grace) = 14 cores/16 threads/37MB
• Intel Core i3 S-Series (4 Golden + 0 Grace) = 4 cores /8 threads/20 MB
• Intel Pentium S-Series (2 Golden + 0 Grace) = 4 cores/4 threads/10 MB
