Raptor Lake shows off its power. The 65-watt Core i9-13900, running at a reduced frequency, was 20% faster than the full-fledged Core i9-12900K
The Chinese resource Expreview published a review and a large number of tests of the promising Core i9-13900 processor. More precisely, the CPU with the designation ES1 participated in the tests – this is an early engineering sample. Nevertheless, despite this, the processor performed very well.
The Core i9-13900 configuration has 8 high-performance and 16 power-efficient cores. The former are based on the new Raptor Cove architecture, the latter are based on the same Gracemont that is used in the energy-efficient Alder Lake cores. The engineering sample has a total of 36MB of cache, 6MB more than the Core i9-12900K.
Since an early engineering sample of the Core i9-13900 was tested, its frequencies are also lower than those of the production version. So, high-performance cores operated at a frequency of 1.4-3.8 GHz, energy efficient – at a frequency of 1.0 to 2.0 GHz. Expreview tested the CPU at the same frequency for the purity of the experiment. The test build included an Asus ROG Maximus Z690 Extreme motherboard and 32 GB of RAM at 2600 MHz (5200 MT/s). It is noted that the BIOS is not optimized for Rptor Lake (of course, there are still three months before the release of these CPUs), however, the CPU was supported by the motherboard.
In Cinebench R20 and R23, the promising CPU lost to the Core i9-12900K by about 10% in a single-threaded test, but at the same time, performance in multi-threaded tests turned out to be 25% higher / But we are talking about an early engineering sample.
In general, in most test applications, the Core i9-13900 was faster.
In games, the situation is as follows: Raptor Lake is either on par with Alder Lake, or inferior, but slightly.
Given the status of the tested CPU, we can expect that the same 20% performance advantage for the new product will be when it is brought to mind and goes into series. And this is without taking into account the difference in TDP. And the stock Core i9-13900K will be even faster.

Huawei has finally defeated American sanctions. Nova 12 Ultra will be the first smartphone with the Chinese Kirin SoC and a 5G modem

Due to American sanctions, Huawei was unable to produce smartphones with 5G modems for a long time – the company was simply cut off from supplies of both the necessary components and ready-made single-chip systems with integrated 5G support. But now everything will change: Huawei has its own SoC with a 5G modem, and the first smartphone based on it will be the Nova 12 Ultra.
This model, designated by catalog number ADA-AL00U, has already been certified in China, and the description specifically indicates 5G support. And the well-known insider Digital Chat Station revealed additional details.
According to him, the new mid-level Huawei smartphone (the Nova line is one of these) will have a Kirin 9000s SoC with a 5G modem. It will differ from the regular version of Kirin 9000s by a slightly lower (only 130 MHz) frequency of the large core. The Kirin 9000s configuration, we recall, looks like this: a large core with a frequency of 2.49 GHz, three medium cores with a frequency of 2.15 GHz and four small cores with a frequency of 1.53 GHz. According to rumors, the premiere of the Nova 12 line will take place in December.
Previously, Digital Chat Station was the first to accurately report the specifications and release dates of Redmi K50 and Xiaomi 12.
