Intel Core i9-13900T CPU benchmarks show faster performance than 12900K 125W at 35W

Recently, Intel introduced the all-new 13th generation T-series chips featuring the Core i9-13900T running at 35W TDP. The new chip has been benchmarked on Geekbench 5 and shows impressive performance given the limited power budget.

Intel’s 13th Gen Core i9-13900T 35W Processor Beats 125W Core i9-12900K in Geekbench 5 Benchmark

Starting with the specifications, the Intel Core i9-13900T is a variant of the Core i9-13900 series with a limited TDP design. While the standard chips boast 125W TDP unlocked and 65W TDP in non-K SKUs, the T-series chip is limited to 35W TDP. The unlocked CPU is rated at up to 253W, the Non-K at up to 219W, while the T-series chip is rated at 106W, less than half the power budget of its higher-end siblings.

The Intel Core i9-13900T retains the same core configuration with 24 cores made up of 8 P-cores and 16 E-cores with 32 threads, a base clock of 1.10GHz, up to 5.30GHz and 68MB : cache (L2 + L3). The processor also comes with a slightly lower price tag of $549.00 USD. The processor is now being tested under the Geekbench 5 benchmark using the ASUS TUF Gaming B660M-PLUS WIFI board and paired with 64GB of DDR5 memory.

The processor scored 2,178 points in single-core and 17,339 points in multi-core tests. For comparison, we used the Intel Core i9-12900K, which scores 1,901 points in single-core and 17,272 points in multi-core tests. This allows the Intel Core i9-13900T to be up to 15% faster in single-core and slightly faster in multi-threaded tests, which is very impressive considering that the Core i9-12900K also has a higher base TDP of 125W (3, 58 times higher) and a peak. TDP rating 241 W (2.27 times higher).

This shows the enormous performance that Intel’s 10nm ESF process node and new hybrid architecture packs contain, and we’ll also see some similar results with the mobility lineup, especially the 13th generation HX parts that are about to ship in the enthusiast class. : gaming laptops in the coming months. AMD also introduced its all-new 65W Ryzen 7000 Non-X processors, which themselves showed off some impressive performance feats with the Zen 4 core architecture.
