Intel will possibly entire the Raptor Lake Refresh CPU lineup in January 2024

Why it matters: Raptor Lake Refresh is the remaining processor line belonging to the antique "Core" circle of relatives, and Intel is ending the branding scheme with a bang. The present day locked Core CPUs can be released in January next year, just in time for CES 2024.

Intel officially launched its flagship 14th-gen Core CPU series in October, even as upcoming processors belonging to the brand new "Core Ultra" emblem have already seemed in early leaks. Now it is time to finish the Raptor Lake Refresh lineup, and new leaks coming from ECSM Official confirm more than one "non-K" additions to the collection.

The X (previously Twitter) leaker launched new screenshots featuring the yet-to-be-introduced Core i3-14100 and Core i5-14400 CPUs, pointing out that they will be introduced on January eight, 2024. Intel CEO Paul Gelsinger is expected to present his deal with at CES 2024 the following day.

The Core i3-14100 CPU is a quad-core/8 thread model solely the usage of Performance cores, ECSM Official says. Meanwhile, Core i5-14400 gives 6 P-Cores and four E-Cores for a 10-core/sixteen-thread configuration. Base clocks are 2.5GHz (Core i3-14100) and 3.5GHz (Core i5-14400).

Leaked benchmarks seemingly affirm a most four.7GHz boost frequency for each Core i3-14100 and P-Cores inside the Core i5-14400. However, the Core i5-14400 become handiest able to reach a 4.1GHz enhance frequency with P-Cores and 3.5GHz with E-Cores in AIDA64's stress test benchmarks. TDP is the equal for each processors (65W), however the Core i5-14400's strength intake went as much as eighty four.75W throughout benchmarks.

ECSM Official provided CPU-Z and Cinebench benchmark ratings for the new processors, just a few days after leaking scores for the Core i5-14600 model. Intel is anticipated to promote the brand new non-K chips at the equal price as their thirteenth-gen counterparts, which should amount to $109 for the Core i3 and $221 for the Core i5 version.

The cutting-edge leaks verify what we already knew approximately the 14th-gen Core CPU collection: a modest boom in clock speeds bringing a relatively unremarkable overall performance development. Price tags aren't converting, however, because of this the new CPUs could be at the least a convenient investment for customers deciding on Intel processors for his or her new PCs. The Santa Clara business enterprise is anticipated to release the remaining Raptor Lake Refresh computer CPUs inside the fifty eight-65W TDP variety, alongside low-energy Core-T fashions with a 35W TDP, across the equal time because the Core i3-14100, Core i5-14400, and Core i5-14600 models.
