Numerical computing
Thanks to the addition of E cores even in the lowest Core i5 Raptor Lake models (13400F and 13400), the raw performance between generations has advanced the most in years. However, the improvement may not always happen, the relatively small number of performance ones (P) combined with the lower Turbo Boost 2.0 clock speeds some games don’t like, and when they reach for E cores, the concept of big.LITTLE is at once detrimental.
Disclaimer: For big.LITTLE-based processors, there is a missing result in some tests. This is because they didn’t scale properly with P cores and the achieved performance was too low. In such cases it is indeed possible to force performance on all cores, but this does not happen by default at the user level. To avoid creating the illusion in some cases that measured results such as those presented in the graphs are normally achieved, we omit these. However, these are a negligible fraction of the total set of test results.

Stockfish 13
Test environment: Host for the Stockfish 13 engine is a chess app Arena 2.0.1, build 2399.
Aida64, FPU tests
Please note: The very low, inadequate to hardware capabilities performance in Aida64 in FPU tests is achieved by Intel Core i3-13100F and Intel Core i5-13400F due to probably unoptimized application code for these processors.

I wonder how the gaming results, especially power consumption, would look with E-cores turned off. Also, whether the Raptor Lake stepping has any performance advantage over Alder Lake one.
We will do ASAP.
After all, it seems that it might not be so easy to get Ci5-13400F in stepping B0. Big domestic shops (on the Czech-Slovak market) have only stepping C0 available, but we believe that sooner or later at least one piece will appear for testing. The availability of the variant based on Raptor Cove will probably be very low.
When we were looking for Ci5-12400 stepping H0 last year, they were also in the minority, but there were still some, about in 40/60 ratio (H0/C0). It’s worse over here, and Intel is obviously trying to use as many B0 “silicon” as possible for more powerful processors.
