Intel Core i9-13900K Reportedly 60% Faster Then i9-12900K in 7-Zip Decompression Test
The upcoming flagship Intel Core i9-13900K processor has recently appeared in a 7-Zip benchmark screenshot where the chip beat it’s predecessor by 20% and 60% in compression and decompression tests respectively. The i9-13900K looks set to feature an additional 8 High-Efficiency cores for a total of 24 cores along with a higher boost clock of 5.8 GHz. This increased core count and clock speed account for the majority of the performance improvements with the i9-13900K reaching a max single thread clock of 5716 MHz and 4611 MHz on 16 threads compared to 5021 MHz and 4060 MHz with the i9-12900K. The processors were both paired with a 32 GB set of DDR5-6400CL32 memory on an unspecified motherboard. These results have not been confirmed with Intel expected to officially unveil the new lineup on September 27th.
