Intel's new CPU generation reportedly delivers up to 5.8 GHz
Even before the official presentation of Intel's 13-core i-generation on 27 September, the line-up has been leaked.
Six new processors are to be unveiled by Intel on 27 September according to product slides posted by Igor'sLab. According to the slides, the i9-13900K has a maximum thermal design power (TDP) of 253 watts and supports up to 5.8 GHz clock speed. The CPU thus clocks up to 600 MHz faster than its predecessor. For this, it requires a maximum of 12 watts more power. This is nevertheless enormous compared to AMD's competitors: the new Ryzen 7000 processors need a maximum of 170 watts and the Ryzen 9 5950X is still said to clock up to 5.7 GHz. Here is an overview of the CPUs:

The Intel Core i9-13900K(F) has 24 cores - eight of which are performance and 16 efficiency cores. Thanks to Thermal Velocity Boost technology, it offers a boost of up to 5.8 GHz. The CPU supports up to DDR5-5600 or DDR4-3200 memory.
The 13700K(F) will offer 16 cores - eight performance and eight efficiency cores - and a boost of up to 5.4 GHz. Thermal Velocity Boost is not available on the 7 series model. As with the i9, the maximum TDP is specified at 253 watts.
The i5-13600K(F) has 14 cores - six performance and eight efficiency cores - and boosts up to 5.1 GHz. Compared to the i7 and i9 series, there is no support for Turbo Boost Max 3.0 technology. The maximum TDP is 181 watts. The standard TDP is 125 watts for all models.
According to the slides, the 13th-core i-generation only introduces faster DDR5-5600 memory support, a higher core count and more USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 ports. With the Z790 chipset, there are up to 20 PCIe 4.0 lanes instead of twelve with the Z690 chipset. In return, there are only eight PCIe 3.0 lanes instead of 16.
These details have not been officially confirmed by Intel. You should therefore take them with a pinch of salt.
