Intel has finally brought its 6GHz gaming processor on the scene and promises to bring “unprecedented speed” to the desktop. So the blue team says that the Core i9-13900KS claims to be the world’s fastest processor, but it looks like it will have a “limited” release.
Clearly, Intel’s latest Raptor Lake is determined to win the never-ending race for the best gaming processors, and its impressive clock speeds could see it win. That doesn’t mean you’ll be alone on the road, as AMD’s Ryzen 7000X3D processors are expected to be unveiled this year, even though this week’s Valentine’s Day release date info was actually a mistake. piercing. .
In a press release, Intel is officially introducing the Core i9-13900KS following yesterday’s teaser video that did not use the real name of the processor. Packed with 24 cores and 32 threads, the new Raptor Lake processor is the first chip to offer 6GHz without overclocking, but can potentially boost the TDP from 150W to 253W using full Turbo power to achieve the feat.
In terms of price, the Core i9-13900KS is $699, $110 more than the previous Raptor Lake flagship. A hefty MSRP, to be sure, but considering the Alder Lake i9-12000KS was priced at $739, this might be a more palatable deal for gaming PC enthusiasts.
Like the company’s A770 graphics card, the Intel Core i9-13900KS is technically a “limited edition,” which means there are a limited number available. The chip will officially go on sale today, but it will likely take a bit longer for stock to hit store shelves. Naturally, this processor will show up in OEM systems as well, so if you’re planning on getting the best gaming PC ever built, keep an eye out for this information.
