Product Information

Now, when it comes to operating temperatures, the Core i7-12700KF was tested inside the Corsair Obsidian 500D with the glass doors closed. For cooling we've gone with the MSI CoreLiquid S360 as it's the only official LGA1700 cooler that we have on hand and here we see that the Core i7 processor peaked at 79 degrees after 30 minutes of looking at the Cinebench R23 multi-core test. That's quite hot, but it's also considerably better than the 96C the 12900K ran at under the same conditions. Shadow of the Tomb Raider is about the most CPU demanding game we have to test with, especially in the village section of the game that we use for testing. Here the 12700KF was 4% faster than the 5800X when comparing the average frame rate and 2% slower for the 1% low. Either way performance was really close between these two competing parts. The Core i7-13700K has the same 125W Processor Base Power (PBP - the amount of power the chip pulls when it isn't in a fully boosted state) as the previous-gen Core i7-12700K. However, Intel increased the Maximum Turbo Power (MTP), the maximum amount of power the chip can draw when in a boosted state. The new 253W limit is a whopping 63W increase over the prior-gen Core i7-12700K (33% increase). Moreover, those running a 10th or 11th-gen Core processor, or any previous Intel processor for that matter, won't be able to upgrade to Alder Lake on their existing motherboard. So then, Alder Lake is for new PC builders, those doing away with their existing platform for something completely new. The Ryzen 7 5800X does fair better in the Photoshop benchmark, but even so the 12700KF was still 7% faster with a score of 1312 pts, making it just 4% slower than the 12900K.

As we said in our 12900K review, there's no tangible difference in gaming performance between most of these high-end CPUs as you'll almost always be GPU limited in today's games, even with an RTX 3090 or 6900 XT at 1080p with dialed-down quality settings. Factorio is a new addition to our battery of benchmarks and this simulation game hasn't been included with the rest of games as we're not measuring frames per second, but rather updates per second. This automated benchmark calculates the time it takes to run 1000 updates. This is a single thread test which apparently relies heavily on cache capacity.

In fact, it was just 9% slower than the 5900X and 17% slower than the 12900K. A very solid result overall and this puts AMD in a tough position where they might be forced to slash pricing. Intel has increased its DDR5 memory support up to 5600 MT/s if you use one DIMM per channel (1DPC), a big increase over the prior 4800 MT/s speed with Alder Lake. Just as importantly, Intel increased 2DPC speeds up to 4400 MT/s, an improvement over the previous-gen 3600 MT/s. Unlike AMD's all-in approach with DDR5, Raptor Lake also supports DDR4-3200 memory, ensuring a value option for Intel platforms.

Another fairly heavily GPU limited game is Horizon Zero Dawn. When using these high-end CPUs the 5800X took the lead, beating the new 12700KF by a 5% margin. Not exactly a devastating difference, but this one was a win for AMD. Motherboards are made in a range of shapes and sizes; this is known as the computer form factor, and some pertain to specific computer manufacturers. Motherboards in systems that are compatible with IBM are also produced to fit multiple case sizes. Since 2007, the majority of desktop computer motherboards adhere to the ATX form factor standard, even ones that have not been constructed from commodity parts, such as those seen in Macintosh and Sun computers. When it comes to cases, the motherboard and PSU form factor have to match; however, a few smaller form factor motherboards from the same line may fit bigger cases. For instance, an ATX case will normally accept a motherboard from MicroATX. Laptop motherboards, on the other hand, are integrated into the computer system, being much smaller and customized to the form factor. This makes upgrades difficult and leads to costly repairs, since when one component of a laptop fails, then the entire motherboard will also need replacing. Generally, this is more expensive than a desktop motherboard because of the high number of integrated components and their custom form factor.

Because 600-series chipsets were designed for the 12th generations Core processors, they may limit the capabilities of a 13th Gen system. As expected, the single core performance is very mighty, here we're measuring P-core performance and this places the 12700KF at a 23% performance advantage when compared to the 5800X.

AMD had the edge on the Rainbow Six Siege testing, beating the 12700KF by a mere 3% margin, so gaming performance between these two CPUs looks to be nearly identical so far. Motherboards for Intel processors are made with chipsets provided by Intel. Each chipset offers a unique set of capabilities. However, motherboards must explicitly support features and capabilities for you to use them. Verify that a motherboard supports the features and capabilities you desire. When it comes to power draw while gaming, we see little difference between the CPUs tested. Whereas the 12700KF pushed total system power usage 31% higher in Blender, here we're looking at just a 5% increase over the 5800X when playing games. So it'd seem that gamers not need to concern themselves with CPU power draw for now, assuming they're mostly just gaming and not running core heavy applications, though as we've seen the 12700KF also does very well there anyway. 10 Game Average Let's get serious with some gaming benchmarks, and we'll start with F1 2021. Here we've got some mixed results as the 12700KF was 8% faster than the 5800X for the 1% low result, but 3% slower for the average frame rate. Technically that would be a win for Intel, though with both CPUs pushing well over 250 fps at minimum, needless to say both are excellent performers.

Cyberpunk 2077 is extremely GPU demanding so even with the dialed down quality settings that we're using here, the 12700KF matched the majority of the high-end CPUs featured in this test.

The quiet operation of the cooler made for a more comfortable and distraction-free computing experience. record the applicant’s or member's choice to receive the STAR+PLUS Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) program as an alternative to nursing facility care;Intel also increased the 13700K's L2 cache from 1.25MB to 2MB for each p-core and doubled the amount of L2 cache for each cluster of e-cores to 4MB. Intel also added 5MB of additional L3 cache. The 12700KF was 17% slower than the 12900K, which is a decent margin, and this will be a result of those missing E-cores, along with the smaller L3 cache and slightly lower operating frequencies. But still an incredible result, especially given the 12700KF is a little over 30% cheaper than the 12900KF. Here's a look at power consumption for the Blender benchmark and when compared to the 12900K, the new Core i7 model looks a lot more efficient. When compared to the 5900X, the 12900K pushed total system power usage 50% higher, for just 11% greater performance. The 12700K, on the other hand, pushed total system usage 24% higher but delivered 31% more performance doing so, and was therefore more efficient than the 5800X. That's a crazy turnaround given what we saw from the Core i9 model.
