Intel Core i5-13400 vs Intel Core i7-12700
Intel Core i5-13400
► remove from comparison
The Intel Core i5-13400 is a top modern and fast desktop processor and belongs to the current Raptor Lake series. The processor was introduced early 2023 and offers a base clock of 2.5 GHz. It reaches up to 4.6 GHz in Turbo mode. As with Alder Lake-S, Raptor Lake-S is also based on a hybrid design that combines P and E cores. The Intel Core i5-13400 therefore offers 6 P-cores and 4 E-cores, which can process a total of up to 16 threads in parallel. The processor continues to be manufactured using the 10 nm production process (called "Intel 7"). The Intel Core i5-13400 does not have a freely selectable multiplier. The LGA 1700 socket introduced with the Alder Lake series serves as the basis. The Intel Core i5-13400 can be based on either a Raptor Lake or Alder Lake chip. Initially, however, Alder Lake chips will be supplied.
Performance
Compared to the Intel Core i5-12400, the IPC of the new Core i5-13400 has been increased slightly. Nevertheless, there are now also 4 e-cores, which support the processor in terms of multi-thread performance. This puts the Intel Core i5-13400 at the level of an Intel Core i5-12600K, which also offers a total of 16 threads.
Graphics unit
The Intel Core i5-13400 is a processor with an integrated graphics unit, but it is only suited for office use or very old and low demanding games.
Power consumption
The TDP of the Intel Core i5-13400 is 65 watts in PL1. Intel defines the PL2 limit at 148 watts. If the restrictions regarding power consumption are deactivated in the BIOS, the PL2 value can be reached permanently. However, a high-quality and powerful cooling unit should be used for this.
Intel Core i7-12700
► remove from comparison
The Intel Core i7-12700F is a fast eight-core desktop processor based on the Alder Lake architecture, which was introduced in November 2021. The processor offers a base clock of 3.3 GHz and reaches up to 4.9 GHz in Turbo. In the same way, the Intel Core i7-12700K the Core i7-12700F is based on a hybrid architecture of 8P and 4E cores. The innovations of the Alder Lake-S processor compared to Rocket Lake, together with the smaller 10 nm manufacturing process, are clearly noticeable. The Intel Core i7-12700 does not offer a free multiplier, which means that overclocking is not possible.
Performance
Compared to the Intel Core i7-11700 , performance has been increased with a better IPC. The additional e-cores are also clearly noticeable in multi-threaded applications. Overall, this provides a noticeable performance boost, which also has an effect on all application areas. The 4 E-Cores provide the P-Cores with significantly more power. If all requirements are met, Intel Turbo Boost 3.0can increase the clock rate of the P-Cores to up to 4.9 GHz. The E-cores also offer a turbo and clock up to 3.6 GHz.
Graphics unit
The Intel Core i7-12700 is a processor with an integrated graphics unit. However, with the Intel UHD Graphics 770 there is only a simple iGPU which is only suitable for office use.
Power consumption
The TDP of the Intel Core i7-12700 is 65 watts, with the option to consume up to 180 watts in Turbo mode. If all restrictions are deactivated in the BIOS, the PL2 value can be achieved permanently. However, a high-quality and powerful cooling unit should be used for this.
