Geekbench 6 (Single-Core)
Geekbench 6 is a benchmark for modern computers, notebooks and smartphones. What is new is an optimized utilization of newer CPU architectures, e.g. based on the big.LITTLE concept and combining CPU cores of different sizes. The single-core benchmark only evaluates the performance of the fastest CPU core, the number of CPU cores in a processor is irrelevant here.

News and articles for the Intel Core i9-12900K
First Geekbench 5 benchmark of the Intel Core i7-13700K
Posted by Stefan on 2022-07-26
Last week we already reported on the new Intel Core i7-13700K processor from Intel, which is expected in autumn 2022. With 8+8 CPU cores (24 threads), the Intel Core i7-13700K should have the same configuration as last year's Intel Core i9-12900K. With this, Intel wants to finally clear AMD's lead in multi-core performance, which has existed for several years.
Intel Core i9-13900 benchmark of engineering sample

Intels 13th generation of the Intel Core i series (Raptor Lake) is about to be released and a lot of information is already known from the official side. This information includes e.g. the number of CPU cores, the expected increase in performance and the manufacturing technology of the new CPUs.
We compare the technical data of the Intel Core i9-13900 with its predecessor and look at benchmarks that have already been published.

Description of the processor
The Intel Core i9-12900K is currently Intels fastest 12th generation processor for home users. The "Alder Lake" processors use a hybrid core design for the first time in Intel desktop processors. They are made up of fast performance cores (Golden Cove) and E-cores trimmed for efficiency (Gracemont).Such a hybrid design has been known for a long time in ARM processors and Apple has also been using this design since the Apple M1 processor in notebooks and the mac Mini. The hybrid structure has the advantage that normal background tasks are usually only processed by the E cores that require very little energy. The faster but also energy-hungry P-cores are only activated when the computing load increases.
The Intel Core i9-12900K has a total of 16 CPU cores (8 + 8) and can process up to 24 threads simultaneously by using the Hyper-Threading technology (only available on the P-cores). The clock frequency of the P-cores is up to 5.2 GHz, which together with the improvements of the new "Alder Lake" architecture results in very fast computing power in single-core operation. In most benchmarks, the new Intel processors of the 12th generation can therefore secure the TOP places.
In pure multi-core applications, the Intel Core i9-12900K has to admit defeat to the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X, but the high-performance Threadripper processors from AMD, e.g. the AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3990X, still play in a completely different league (but also from Price).
For the first time, Intel supports the PCIe 5.0 standard as well as new and fast DDR5 memory up to DDR5-4800. With the XMP 3.0 profile, however, significantly higher frequencies are possible, up to DDR5-8700 have already been achieved by professional overclockers (as of the end of 2021).
