Another point in Intel’s favor here is that unlike that new Ryzen chip, the 13900K (and all other 13th-gen desktop CPUs from Intel) doesn’t require any other new components - provided you’re upgrading from a 12th-gen chip, at least. While the new 13th Gen processors can utilize the updated Z790 chipset, the CPU is also compatible with current-gen Z690 chipsets with a mandatory microcode BIOS update to recognize the new processor.Reddit and its partners use cookies and similar technologies to provide you with a better experience. As a tech enthusiast, I couldn’t resist diving into the specs and testing these two chips to see which one comes out on top. Essentially bonks its competitors and its predecessors over the head with insanely good performance in every possible area.

While still a fast processor which easily beats last year’s Core i9-12900K across the board, it falls well short of the Core i9-13900K. In all cases, we run the benchmarks on the lowest graphics settings available at 1080p and using the most powerful graphics card we have available and with 32GB RAM to isolate the actual CPU operations we are testing without having to worry about inteference with excessive memory or graphics management. Like all 12th and 13th Gen Intel chips, you can use either more affordable DDR4 RAM or the newer, faster, and pricier DDR5. Instruction Set Extensions are additional instructions which can increase performance when the same operations are performed on multiple data objects.

The maximum sustained (>1s) power dissipation of the processor as limited by current and/or temperature controls. The i9-13900K scored a whopping 419 frames per second on average - 60 more fps than the 7950X, and 45 higher than the framerate produced by the 12900K. In case you’re not familiar with the hybrid-core design, what this essentially means is that the performance-oriented cores handle the bulk of work given to the processor, while the less powerful efficiency cores take care of background tasks to reduce overall power consumption. Intel has been a household name in the world of CPUs, and they’ve recently launched two contenders that have piqued my interest: the Intel Core i9-13900K and the Intel Core i9-13900KF.

We strive to provide accurate and helpful information on various technology products and services to empower our readers to make informed decisions. This is to avoid any conflicts or unneeded usage of resources and one less thing to worry about that could malfunction.Read more about interpreting Intel® processor numbers or Intel® processor numbers for the Data Center. Use conditions are the environmental and operating conditions derived from the context of system use. Our chart of the single-core boost frequency of the Core i9-13900K CPU compared to the Core i9-13900KF and other Intel and AMD CPU models. With their high number of cores, high power draw, high thermal output, and high performance, they are intended to be used by enthusiasts like the earlier Intel Core i7 Extreme Edition processor. So, whether you’re Team 13900K or Team 13900KF, one thing is for sure: with either of these processors, you’re in for a fantastic computing experience.

Thermal Monitoring Technologies protect the processor package and the system from thermal failure through several thermal management features.CPU-Z Benchmark 17 (Single-Core)The CPU-Z benchmark measures a processor's performance by measuring the time it takes the system to complete all benchmark calculations. On 3Dmark’s CPU Profile, which includes six tests that feature custom simulations, the i9-13900K scored 16,557 (compared to 10,370 of the new Core i5-13600K). L3 cache tops at 36MB with 32MB of L2, and the base TDP is 125 watts with an eye-watering 253-watt max TDP. During production, the chipmaker evaluates each chip and implants a unique V/F curve into each one of them.
