For multi-threaded tests such as rendering, the new Core i7-13700H does extremely well in our Aorus 17H test laptop.

This is thanks in large to the lofty 115W Turbo power allocation that is then followed by a solid 55W sustained power in Gamer mode.

Combine that with 20 total threads, and you have a clearly very powerful processor, even if it does dictate a lot of cooling and power delivery.

And that point is highlighted clearly with our back-to-back Cinebench test.

After 10 minutes of sustained runtime, the score drops from almost 16,000 points to just under 14,400. That’s a drop of 10% versus the single-run score that includes the initial high Turbo frequency.

Even so, you’re still getting a powerful chip after sustained loading.
