The Intel Core i7-13800H is a mobile processor featuring 14 cores, introduced in January 2023, with a manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $457. This processor belongs to the Core i7 series and is built on the Raptor Lake-H architecture utilizing a BGA 1744 package. It incorporates Intel Hyper-Threading technology, effectively doubling the core count of the performance cores to achieve a total of 20 threads. The Core i7-13800H is equipped with 24 MB of L3 cache and operates at a base frequency of 2.5 GHz, with the capability to boost up to 5.2 GHz depending on the workload. Manufactured on a 10 nm production node, the transistor count for the Core i7-13800H remains unspecified. Additionally, the multiplier is locked, which restricts its potential for overclocking.

The Core i7-13800H operates with a thermal design power (TDP) of 45 W, which aligns with the standard power consumption expected from contemporary personal computers. This Intel processor is compatible with both DDR4 and DDR5 memory, utilizing a dual-channel configuration. For interfacing with other system components, the Core i7-13800H employs a PCI-Express Gen 5 connection. Additionally, it is equipped with the Iris Xe Graphics 96EU integrated graphics solution.

The Core i7-13800H features hardware virtualization, significantly enhancing the performance of virtual machines. Furthermore, it supports IOMMU virtualization (PCI passthrough), allowing guest virtual machines to directly access host hardware. This processor is capable of executing programs that utilize Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX), thereby improving performance for applications that require intensive calculations. In addition to AVX, Intel has also incorporated the more recent AVX2 standard; however, AVX-512 is not included.
