• Gaussian & Neural Accelerator 3.0 (GNA 3.0)
  Processes AI speech and audio applications such as neural noise cancellation while simultaneously freeing up CPU resources for overall system performance and responsiveness.
• Intel® Adaptive Boost Technology
  Intel® ABT improves performance by opportunistically allowing higher multi-core turbo frequencies, while operating within system power and temperature specifications when current, power, and thermal headroom exists.
• Overclocking⁶ Features and Capabilities
  When paired with the Intel® Z690 chipset, processor P-cores, E-cores, graphics, and memory can be set to run at frequencies above the processor specification resulting in higher performance.
• Intel® Extreme Tuning Utility⁷
  A precision toolset for tuning and overclocking, featuring memory and hybrid processor overclocking, so that new and experienced users can get more from their unlocked processors.
• Intel® Dynamic Memory Boost⁸
  Intelligent memory overclocking performance on-demand that optimizes platform performance based on usage.

Performance varies by use, configuration and other factors. Learn more at www.Intel.com/PerformanceIndex

Performance results are based on testing as of dates shown in configurations and may not reflect all publicly available updates. See backup for configuration details. No product or component can be absolutely secure.

Results have been estimated or simulated.

Altering clock frequency or voltage may void any product warranties and reduce stability, security, performance, and life of the processor and other components. Check with system and component manufacturers for details.

1. Increased cores from previous generation on the unlocked i9, i7, and i5 processors.
2. Performance hybrid architecture combines two core microarchitectures, Performance-cores (P- cores) and Efficient-cores (E-cores), on a single processor die first introduced on 12th Gen Intel Core processors. Select 13th Gen Intel Core processors do not have performance hybrid architecture, only P-cores, and have same cache size as prior generation; see ark.intel.com for sku details.
3. CPU PCIe 5.0 lanes are only validated for discrete graphics (x16) and PCIe storage (1x4). 1x16 bifurcation to 2x8 supported on select Intel® 600 and 700 Series chipsets.
4. Maximum memory speeds are associated with 1 DIMM per Channel (1DPC) configurations. Up to DDR5-5600 MT/s 1DPC UDIMM 1Rx8, 1Rx16 and DDR5-5200 1Rx8, 1Rx16, 2Rx8.
