Intel's Core i9-13900HK which will be the fastest Raptor Lake-P Mobility CPU in the 13th Gen lineup has been benchmarked again.
Intel's 13th Gen Core i9-13900HK Flagship Raptor Lake-P Mobility CPU Benchmarks Leak
The 13th Gen Raptor Lake mobility lineup is going to be split into two performance-oriented CPU segments. There will be the Raptor Lake-H55 and the Raptor Lake HX SKUs. The H55 parts will be utilizing a die configuration designed for thin gaming laptops while the HX parts will feature a die similar to the desktop offerings. The H55 CPUs will offer up to 14 cores and 20 threads while the Raptor Lake-HX lineup will offer up to 24 cores and 32 threads.
The Intel Core i9-13900HK Raptor Lake-P CPU benchmarked here comes with 14 cores and 20 threads in a 6+8 configuration. The CPU has a base clock of 2.60 GHz and boosts up to 5.4 GHz which is where earlier reports had expected the boost clocks to land. The CPU is equipped with 24.0 MB of L3 cache and was featured on a Samsung 960XFH Laptop with 32 GB of DDR5 DRAM.

In terms of performance, the Intel Core i9-13900HK Raptor Lake-P CPU scored 1870 points in the single-core and 12,436 points in the multi-core tests. The CPU is just about on par with its 12th Gen predecessor so we expect that there's still room for final optimization.

Intel recently confirmed during its investor relations meeting that the 13th Gen Raptor Lake CPUs for mobility platforms will be launching in late 2022 after the desktop launch. The actual products may not hit retail until late Winter or early 2023 but we expect Intel to utilize its own Arc A-series GPUs along with high-end RTX 40 series options from NVIDIA which are also headed for a CES 2023 unveiling.
