The Intel Core i9-13900HK is a high-end mobile CPU for laptops based on the Raptor Lake-H series (Alder Lake architecture). Intel Core i9-13900HK ► remove from comparison The SoC is manufactured in a further improved 10nm process at Intel, which is known as Intel 7. The CPU is rated at 45 W base power (95 W PL2) but most laptops will use a PL1 of around 60 Watt. The CPU now supports PCIe 5.0 x8 for a GPU and two PCIe 4.0 x4 for SSDs.The integrated graphics card is based on the Xe-architecture and offers 80 of the 96 EUs (Execution Units). Quick Sync in version 8 is the same as in the Rocket Lake CPUs and supports MPEG-2, AVC, VC-1 decode, JPEG, VP8 decode, VP9, HEVC, and AV1 decode in hardware.

For AI tasks, the CPU also integrates GNA 3.0 and DL Boost (via AVX2).

The Thread Director (in hardware) can support the operating system to decide which thread to use on the performance or efficient cores for the best performance. The integrated memory controller supports various memory types up to DDR5-5200 (up from DDR5-4800 of the i5-12600H).

Thanks to the higher clock speeds of the improved Intel 7 process, the Core i5-13600H can surpass the old Core i5-12600H (e.g., + 300 MHz boost). Compared to the 12650H, the 12600H offers less P-cores but more E-cores, a faster iGPU and 'Enterprise' vPro features (for remote management). The performance of the E-cores should be similar to old Skylake cores (compare to the Core i7-6700HQ). The clock rate ranges from 2.8 to 4.8 GHz (single core boost, all core up to 4.7 GHz) on the performance cluster and 2.1 to 3.6 GHz on the efficient cluster. The P-cores support Hyper-Threading leading to 16 supported threads when combined with the E-cores. It was announced in early 2023 and offers 4 of the 6 performance cores (P-cores, Golden Cove architecture) and all 8 efficient cores (E-cores, Gracemont architecture).
