Late last year, Intel finally revealed their 12th Gen Alder Lake processors, marking a big shift in design for Intel as it also saw the debut of their hybrid P-core/E-core architecture. Since then, AMD has responded by announcing their own Ryzen 7000 processors, but it looks like Intel is already set to announce their next lineup of desktop processors, codenamed Raptor Lake.
Don’t just take it from us either, as it’s actually Intel themselves who seemed to have accidentally let the cat out of the bag. On Intel’s own website, there’s a page called ‘How to Choose a Gaming CPU’, which is a short guide for users on how to pick an appropriate processor for their use case, and also to help us understand how Intel names their processors. Well, one eagle-eyed Twitter user spotted that they had inadvertently used the upcoming 13th Gen processors as examples, even including details like core counts and clock speeds.
According to the post, Intel’s 13th Gen processors will include at least the Core i5-13600K, the Core i7-13700K and the Core i9-13900K. The latter will see a total of 24 cores and 32 threads with up to 5.4GHz in clock speeds on the P-cores, while the Core i7-13700K will have 16 cores and 24 threads, running at up to 5.3GHz on its P-cores. T
he Core i5-13600K meanwhile will feature 14 cores and 20 threads, and its P-cores will run at up to 5.1GHz. It should be noted though that these are likely conservative figures, and given enough cooling they can certainly hit higher numbers in Turbo Boost Max 3.0 and Thermal Velocity Boost modes.
Nevertheless, Intel has since removed that section on their page, replacing it with 12th Gen Alder Lake examples such as the Core i5-12600K, Core i7-12700K and the Core i9-12900K instead. To really see what Intel has in store though, we’ll have to wait a bit more, with the company expected to launch Raptor Lake processors later this year.
