Gigabyte seems to have confirmed the entire 13th Gen Core desktop CPU lineup

Intel has already confirmed which will be the first Raptor Lake chips to release. We are almost certain there will be more chips in the lineup, but we've only heard about them through rumours. Gigabyte, however, might have shared more than it should, confirming a total of 22 Intel 13th Gen Core CPUs.

As spotted by @momomo_us, Gigabyte started listing its upcoming Z790 motherboards, including their specifications and details. As part of that, Gigabyte also added a CPU compatibility list, including the current and upcoming chips that users will be able to run on these boards. As shown by the listings, we can see this list includes all 12th Gen Core desktop CPUs, as well as the six Raptor Lake ‘K' series chips.

The 12th Gen Core lineup and the 13th Gen Core ‘K' series chips should have been all the list included, as those are the only ‘officially announced' CPUs. However, Gigabyte also added 16 non-K (65W) and T series (35W) CPUs. These are expected additions to the line-up, as they are there every generation, but it is still an interesting early look at what's to come over the next few months after Intel's initial launch.

Besides including the processors, the list also details each one of them. Unfortunately, it doesn't include core/thread configurations and maximum frequencies, but the former can be assumed based on their ‘K' counterparts. Intel 13th Gen Core K chips will be coming out on October 20th, but the non-K and T CPUs should only become available in early 2023.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
