I was prompted to make this video as we have Intel’s Arrow Lake-S desktop series CPUs on the horizon. As some of you may know Intel will be dropping hyperthreading, which has been a staple feature of their CPUs for over a decade. In this video, I put Intel's core i9-13900K through its paces, testing it across 40 different games to see how the P-core, hyperthreading, and E-core architecture handles real-world gaming performance. With hyperthreading under the spotlight, we explore whether it's still relevant in modern gaming or if Intel's new approach has left it behind. Whether you're a PC gamer or hardware enthusiast, this deep dive will give you a clearer picture of how Intel's latest innovations stack up against today’s demanding titles. Stay tuned for some surprising results! 00:00 Intro 01:09 Why I’m testing this 02:29 Test setup 04:20 Benchmarks 15:21 40 Game Average 16:16 Conclusion TEST SPECS CPU: INTEL CORE i9-13900K Overclock Settings: P-Cores 5.7GHz, E-Cores 4.6GHz, Ring 5GHz Cooler: MSI E360 Motherboard: MSI Z790 CARBON MAX WIFI 2 ITX RAM: PATRIOT VIPER XTREME 5 7600MT/s C36 GPU: MSI RTX 4090 GAMING X TRIO (Core +205, Memory +1500) Storage: CORSAIR MP600 PRO LPX 4TB GEN 4 PSU: EVGA G3 1000 Use my affiliate links to purchase parts and support the channel! https://amzn.to/3IAAzAG Intel 14th gen CPUs here: https://amzn.to/40Vt4g1 Ryzen 7 7800X3D here: https://amzn.to/3VfW5lW RTX 4070 Super: https://amzn.to/3v04dwo RTX 4080 Super HERE! https://amzn.to/49av5Zg BUY A 5700X3D HERE: https://amzn.to/3w1nAoI BUY A 12600KF HERE: https://amzn.to/3HRMlGI Check out my 13900K Hyperthreading 40 Game Benchmark Vid https://youtu.be/I8DJITHWdaA Watch my 13700K E Core ON vs OFF 40 Game Benchmark video https://youtu.be/LcQUUmi3rWI Watch my RTX 4090 vs 3090 42 Game Benchmark video https://youtu.be/zSW_00jjeKI Watch my RTX 4090 at 2GHz video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cM34YINPjc Buy an RX 7800XT Here: https://amzn.to/3EuQYoh Support the channel by donating! ***** https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=TVURNDYCYKK4L ***** Want to build a Gaming PC?
