Intel launches record-setting desktop CPU — turbo frequency up to 6GHz

Intel launched its Core i9-13900KS desktop processor — the fastest in the world — on Thursday, 12 January 2023.

It features a turbo frequency of up to 6GHz without overclocking, and it is the first central processing unit (CPU) in the PC industry to have achieved the feat.

Mention the power. Eskom will ban this CPU. Haha.

Maximum power of 253W. That should help warm the room in winter.

350w peak power draw until it thermal throttles on a 420mm rad and a replacement mounting plate.

Only barely beats AMD in most gaming benchmarks while drawing twice the power.

Intel is getting pretty desperate. Smells of the Pentium D era.
