Intel announces the i9-13900KS CPU, the world’s first processor with a speed of 6 Ghz
September 28, 2022
During the innovation event, Intel confirmed that the world’s first CPU with a speed of 6 GHz is the Core i9-13900KS “Raptor Lake”, which will be launched early next year.
According to Intel, 13th Gen Raptor Lake CPUs were never officially planned for release until 2 years ago, when plans for the Meteor Lake desktop faltered a bit. As such, the engineering team decided to offer an intermediate CPU family, now known as Raptor Lake, to launch after Alder Lake and build on the foundation laid by Alder Lake, Intel’s first hybrid CPU design.
Intel’s 13th Gen Raptor Lake CPUs will use the hybrid core design, with a combination of ‘P’ cores optimized for performance and ‘E’ cores optimized for efficiency. For the new chips, Intel will be using a new P-Core known as Raptor Cove which will replace the Golden Cove cores found in Alder Lake CPUs. For The E-Core, Intel will retain the existing Gracemont core architecture, but will come with minor enhancements.
