Intel’s Non-K Raptor Lake CPUs Listed with Alleged Price, Release Date and Core Counts
Intel was expected to officially unveil its 13th Generation Core ‘Raptor Lake’ processors at CES, which kicks off on January 5th, but at least one store in Europe will start selling parts on January 3rd, 2023. that you plan to start @momomo_usRetailers are also preparing to start selling Intel B760 and H770 based motherboards, although some of these platforms will be released much later.
The leaked list not only reveals the new CPUs’ release dates and their preliminary prices (this is an early list, so prices may go up), but also the general configurations of the new 13th Gen Core processors. clarifying. Of course, we are dealing with informal information, so don’t take it for granted.
Similar to the unlocked 13th Gen Core i9 series, the mainstream SKU continues to feature 24 cores, including 8 high-performance Raptor Cove cores and 16 energy-efficient Goldmont cores. included. The main difference between the Core i7 ‘Raptor Lake’ and ‘Alder Lake’ parts is that the former has four more energy efficient cores. The extra cores and higher clocks almost certainly make the new chip the best CPU for gaming.

Core i9-13900F | 8P+16E | 730 | 644 |
core i7-13700 | 8P+8E | 520 | 459 |

core i5-13400 | 6P+4E | 306 | 270 |
Core i5-13400F | 6P+4E | 277 | 244 |
core i3-13100 | 4P | 189 | 167 |
core i3-13100 | 4P | 154 | 136 |
Meanwhile, the main change between the Core i5 ‘Raptor Lake’ and ‘Alder Lake’ processors is that the newer CPUs will have 4 or 6 Goldmont cores, while the older ones will have none at all. That’s it. Adding four more cores makes the Core i5 processor significantly more competitive in multithreaded workloads. The Core i5-13500 looks particularly competitive as it packs 14 cores (6P + 8E) at a price of €320 ($282 excluding VAT). In contrast, the 13th Gen Core i3 part will have no additional processing engine and will have four high performance cores.
The price of the new 13th Gen Core ‘Raptor Lake’ desktop parts looks pretty high. However, there are a few things to note here. First, European prices are usually a little higher than US prices. Second, retailers who list new parts before their official launch to attract early buyers usually add a premium increase.

When it comes to Intel B760 and Intel H770 based motherboards for LGA1700 processors, everything is well over €200/$200, so it’s not cheap. On the other hand, most of the listed motherboards support cheap DDR4 memory, so a system based on the new 13th Gen Core ‘Raptor Lake’ processors would have a pretty competitive price tag. This is especially important as it competes against AMD’s Ryzen 7000 series platform which only supports DDR5 and so far his AMD partners still have to introduce their cheaper AM5 motherboards.
Intel’s non-K 13th Generation Core processor lineup for mainstream and compact desktops will likely include 17 SKUs with Processor Base Power (PBP) of 35W and 65W, Raptor Lake B0, Alder Includes CPU models that use Lake C0, or Alder Lake H0 stepping. die. European retailers are currently only listing 65W models, which shouldn’t come as a surprise as Intel typically starts selling such SKUs before their 35W processors.
