Intel officially unveiled the Raptor Lake-HX and Raptor Lake-H mobile CPU lineup at CES 2023. Led by the Core i9-13980HX, Raptor Lake-HX promises significant gains in multi-core performance compared to corresponding Alder Lake-HX and the Ryzen 6900HX. Intel is also introducing its Movidius VPU as part of select Raptor Lake-H offerings for accelerating AI tasks at the edge.https://www.notebookcheck.net/Intel-announces-13th-gen-Raptor-Lake-HX-and-Raptor-Lake-H-mobile-processors-with-significant-leads-over-Alder-Lake-Ryzen-6900HX-and-Apple-M1-Max.678446.0.html
Funny enough, Intel using a benchmark almost no one use by itself, to reclaim leadership.
Don't get me wrong, the new chips are going to be impressive, but what would be more impressive is Intel believing in their products, using industry standards and more useful benchmarks like Geekbench and CineBench.
Mobile chips and not a word about battery life. Fun.
Raptor Lake does not offer any new cores and they continue to be made according to the same wildly outdated HOT 10nm+++++++ process. "7nm" from Intel will appear only with Meteor Lake. Apparently we will also not see full-fledged Display Port 2.0 at 80Gbps, as they are not in Zen4 either...

nanometer number is pretty useless though. When Intel was using 10nm FinFET, it's transitor density was higher than TSMC's 7nm. Transitor density is what dictates power consumption and performance per watt. Don't let the arbitrary nanometer nomenclature fool you. granitefirm(dot)com/blog/us/2021/12/28/tsmc-process-roadmap
