Intel Core i7-13700K and Core i5-13600K tested, higher performance with higher power consumption

The primary upgrade over Alder Lake parts is increased core count of Efficient cores from 4 to 8 for each part. Furthermore, Raptor Lake models have higher boost clocks, by up to 400 MHz for the i7 SKU (max boost 5.4 GHz) and 300 MHz for i5 (max boost (5.2 GHz). Additionally, both parts have increased (doubled) L2 cache over Alder Lake SKUs, and they support faster DDR5 memory out of the box. In test such as CPU-Z the i7 sees a 10% boost in single-core test and 32-34% better score in multi-threaded. The i5-13600K, in other hand has 5% 39-41% uplift respectively. As for the power draw, the Intel Core i7-13700K consumed around 30% higher power than the Core i7-12700KF while the Core i5-13600K consumed around 20% more power than its predecessor. This additional power resulted in a lot of heat and both chips were operating over 100C with the Core i7 even hitting the 115C wall limit. The maximum package power was reported at 433W.
