Intel Core i9-13900KF 24-Core Desktop Processor

This desktop CPU delivers 24 cores split into 8 performance and 16 efficient cores with 32 threads. It targets enthusiasts and professionals who need high multi-thread throughput for rendering, compilation and heavy multitasking workloads. The Raptor Lake architecture operates on the LGA 1700 socket platform.

LGA 1700 Socket and 125W Thermal Design

The processor fits Intel LGA 1700 motherboards such as the Z790 chipset with DDR5 and PCIe 5.0 support. A 125W base power rating means sustained loads demand capable cooling and a robust VRM design. The socket interface also enables WiFi 6 and Thunderbolt connectivity through the board.

5.7 GHz Max Turbo Frequency

The highest single-core turbo reaches 5.7 GHz via Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0. Performance cores base at 3.0 GHz and efficient cores at 2.2 GHz. This peak frequency determines responsiveness in lightly threaded tasks and gaming scenarios.
