The entry-level Intel Core i5-13500 and Core i5-13400 have been benchmarked on PassMark. The former trades blows with the Core i7-12700, and the latter is almost as fast as the Core i5-12600K. https://www.notebookcheck.net/Intel-Core-i5-13500-and-Core-i5-13400-punch-above-their-weight-class-in-PassMark-s-CPU-benchmark.651140.0.html
13500 sounds like a great budget CPU. I wonder what the price diff between 13500 and 13400 will be.
"Similarly, the Core i5-13400 gets 3,899, putting it above the Core i5-12600 (3,818)"
Thats in comparision to 12600K non K version? Coz later in the article they are compared with 12600K
