Performance Where You Need It Most
Get the performance you need, where you need it—whether you’re a gamer, creator, streamer, or everyday user.
Do More with the Fastest Chip We’ve Ever Built
Advancing Performance Hybrid Architecture
13th Gen Intel® Core™ processors advances performance hybrid architecture1 with up to eight Performance-cores (P-core) and up to 16 Efficient-cores (E-core), combined with workloads intelligently routed by Intel® Thread Director2.
Built for Modern Gaming
Built for gamers looking for maximum performance to play the latest games, while also having the capabilities to tackle other workloads. New 13th Gen Intel® Core™ processor-based PCs make it all possible.
Superior Creating Experience
The 13th Gen Intel® Core™ processor family offers faster P-cores and more E-cores with support for DDR4/DDR5 and PCIe 4.0/5.0. That provides a platform that can max out multitasking and choice for configurability.
Customize for What You Do Every Day
13th Gen Intel® Core™ processors deliver highly flexible architecture and industry-leading tools for the ultimate in performance customization.
