Intel Core i7-13650HX
The Intel Core i7-13650HX is a Raptor Lake-HX laptop processor introduced in January 2023. It combines 6 Performance cores and 8 Efficient cores (14 cores, 20 threads), boosts to 4.9 GHz on the Intel 7 process and carries 24 MB of cache. Intel rates it at 55 W base power and 157 W maximum turbo power, and it is built for large, high-performance laptops.
Pros
- 14 cores and 20 threads, from 6 Performance and 8 Efficient cores
- Performance cores boost to 4.9 GHz
- Supports DDR5-4800 and DDR4-3200 memory, up to 192 GB
- PCIe 5.0 and 4.0 support, with up to 20 lanes from the processor
Cons
- 157 W maximum turbo power calls for a laptop with strong cooling
- Basic 16-EU UHD Graphics, so a discrete GPU is needed for gaming
- Raptor Lake cores on the Intel 7 process rather than a newer Core Ultra architecture
- Results vary with each laptop's power limit: in review testing, Cinebench R23 multi-core ranged from about 16,900 to 21,000 across seven laptops
