The 13th Gen Intel Core i9-13900K is 11% faster on average than AMD’s Ryzen 9 7950X for gaming purposes, according to screenshots of first-party slides shared by a VideoCardz reader that tease how the flagship CPUs might handle various games. Two of the titles that were benchmarked are Conqueror’s Blade and The Riftbreaker, which supposedly run 22% and 18% faster on the Raptor Lake chip, respectively. A second slide shows off how the Core i9-13900K might fare against the Ryzen 9 7950X in productivity software.

From a VideoCardz report:

According to this slide, Intel Core i9-13900K is offers -1% worse to 22% better performance than AMD Ryzen 9 7950X in gaming. Both CPUs are the flagship of the new desktop series. On average, Intel CPU will be 11% faster than AMD Zen4 CPU.

Another slide shows productivity benchmark from PugetBench, Procyon or AutoCAD/AutoDesk. Intel claims it will reach parity in half of the benchmarks, with 3% loss in Photoshop test and 4% to 16% gain with AutoDesk/CAD.

Those are of course Intel benchmarks with unknown methodology and hardware used (motherboard/memory).
