The latest 13th Generation Intel Desktop chipset has shown excellent performance and was able to compete with its competitor. The chipset does deliver good performance. Raptor Lake, the newest mobile chipset from Intel’s 13th generation, will soon be unveiled, according to the manufacturer. The highlight of the event is Intel’s Core i9-13980HX, which has 24 cores and a 5.6GHz turbo frequency. The 24-core combination has never been supported by a laptop CPU before, and Intel calls it the “fastest mobile processor in the world.”

In comparison to the same 12th Gen CPUs, Intel claims the end result is up to 11 per cent faster single-thread performance and up to 49 per cent quicker multitasking performance. It is also claimed that gaming performance will be up to 12 per cent faster compared to its predecessor. Additionally, up to 128GB of RAM is available along with support for DDR4 (up to 3,200MHz) and DDR5 (up to 5,600MHz). The most recent 13th Gen mobile HX CPUs from Intel also enable Bluetooth 5.2, Thunderbolt 4, and Wi-Fi 6E.

The flagship Core i9-13980HX from Intel features eight performance cores and 16 efficiency cores on the same chip that it uses for its 13th Generation of desktop processors. It has twice as many efficiency cores as the preceding Core i9-12950HX but the same amount of performance cores. All of this is included in a 55-watt chip that is made to function with the most recent discrete mobile GPUs for high-performance tasks and gaming.

The 13th Gen variants of Intel’s 28W P-series for thin and light laptops and the 15W U-series for ultralight laptops, foldable, and beyond are being released for laptops with less demanding performance requirements. With a maximum turbo speed of 5.2GHz and support for both DDR4 and DDR5, the P-series can accommodate up to 14 cores (six performance/eight efficiency). The flagship U-series processor (i7-1365U) has a maximum turbo frequency of 5.2GHz and a total of 10 cores (two performance and eight efficiencies).
