This makes it more suitable for applications that can utilize multiple CPU cores, such as video editing, 3D rendering, or running multiple programs at once. One of the key differences between the Core i5 13400 and the Core i5 13400F is their multi-core and single-core performance. Superior performance, no matter what type of creator you are, lets you stream, browse, edit, video chat, and just take care of business. Intel’s products and software are intended only to be used in applications that do not cause or contribute to adverse impacts on human rights.

If the restrictions regarding power consumption are deactivated in the BIOS, the PL2 value can be reached permanently.Flipping over to the 1440p charts shows us that higher resolutions are often the great equalizer that levels the playing field for chips with similar accommodations.

Low power draw, low fan speed idle, cool idle temps and not getting above 60C after 1h at full load. That's a pretty slim delta, though, considering the 13400's lower pricing and big improvements in productivity applications.This title also makes good use of the e-cores, thus delivering a more substantial lead over the previous-gen Core i5-12400. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Intel does not commit or guarantee product Availability or Technical Support by way of roadmap guidance.

The Core i5-13400's power consumption is surprisingly good, especially given that our test chip uses the Alder Lake C0 die. The deltas in these charts can be slim, and large deltas in individual game titles, like with the 5800X3D, impact cumulative measurements. Maximum supported memory speed may be lower when populating multiple DIMMs per channel on products that support multiple memory channels. System or device display resolution is dependent on multiple system design factors; actual resolution may be lower on your system. Use conditions are the environmental and operating conditions derived from the context of system use.The C0 die is the same silicon that Intel uses for the Alder Lake Core i5 processors, making the Core i5-13400 mostly identical to the Core i5-12600K (our test subject is C0).

However, the takeaway is that the box cooler is good enough to handle the chip at the lower 65W/148W power limits and adequate for multi-threaded real-world workloads with the power limits removed.That stands in contrast to the higher-end Raptor models that come with 2MB of L2 per p-core and 4MB of L2 for each e-core cluster. Prime95 is a stress test and not very indicative of normal use, so we then ran a looped series of POV-Ray benchmarks to see performance over time with a more realistic workload. Intel® GNA is designed to run audio based neural networks at ultra-low power, while simultaneously relieving the CPU of this workload. The Intel Core i5-13400 is a top modern and fast desktop processor and belongs to the current Raptor Lake series.
