After the full lineup leak, online retailers have started listing the upcoming 13th Gen Raptor Lake CPUs including the Core i9-13900K, Core i7-13700K & Core i5-13600K along with their preliminary prices.
Intel's 13th Gen Raptor Lake Core i9-13900K, Core i7-13700K, Core i5-13600K CPUs Listed Online With Preliminary Prices
Intel 13th Gen Raptor Lake CPUs will utilize the hybrid core design, featuring a mix of Performance-Optimized 'P' and Efficiency-Optimized 'E' cores. For the new chips, Intel will be using a brand new P-Core known as Raptor Cove which will replace the Golden Cove cores featured on the Alder Lake CPUs. For The E-Core, Intel will retain the existing Gracemont core architecture but it will come with minor improvements.
So coming to prices, the Intel Core i9-13900K(F) is listed for $940.99 & $900.99 CAD, respectively. The Intel Core i7-13700K(F) is listed for $662.99 & $625.99 CAD, respectively. Finally, the Core i5-13600K is listed for $460.99 & $432.99 CAD, respectively. Converting these prices to the US gives us:
- Core i9-13900K - $940.99 CAD = $725 US
- Core i9-13900KF - $900.99 CAD = $694 US
- Core i7-13700K - $662.99 CAD = $511 US
- Core i7-13700KF - $625.99 CAD = $482 US
- Core i5-13600K - $460.99 CAD = $355 US
- Core i5-13600KF - $423.99 CAD = $326 US
The same retailer is offering the 12th Gen Alder Lake CPUs for around $100 US less and those are listed below with the converted rates:
- Core i9-12900K - $817.99 CAD = $630 US
- Core i9-12900KF - $770.99 CAD = $594 US
- Core i7-12700K - $565.99 CAD = $436 US
- Core i7-12700KF - $539.99 CAD = $416 US
- Core i5-12600K - $398.99 CAD = $307 US
- Core i5-12600KF - $355.99 CAD = $274 US
That's an average 17% price increase versus the Intel 12th Gen Alder Lake CPUs but one thing should be noted these prices are still preliminary listings and we more or less expect the MSRPs or final pricing to remain identical as the existing models.
