Intel shows the complete wafer that will give life to the most powerful Core i9-13900K

Intel continues to offer facts and trivia about the upcoming Intel Raptor Lake processors on the occasion of tech-tour that is taking place these days in Israel. On this occasion we has taught an original wafer of the processors Intel Raptor Lake in its maximum configuration of 8 high-performance cores and 16 high-efficiency cores. The photos, taken by Andreas Schilling of Hardwareluxx, show the whole wafer that will give life to these most powerful processors in the range Intel Core i9-13900K.

The wafers for these processors have been manufactured in the Israeli FAB28, which the media have been able to visit today. In the wafer we can see the different dies of 8 Raptor Cove high-performance cores and 16 Gracemont high-efficiency cores. At first glance we can distinguish this same configuration, on the left you can see a lighter shade the high-efficiency cores formed by 4 clusters of 4 cores each, on the right and of a darker color appreciate the high-performance cores that will go up to 5.8 GHz.

These wafers belong to a step before the end, in the absence of supplying power to the transistors and an I/O interface.

Intel will show us the final processor on which this 8+16 core structure is based next day 27, when I present the next Raptor Lake. The Intel Core i9-13900K will have this configuration, remaining as the top of the range processor of the current seriesat least until we can see the promised 6 GHz by Intel.
