Intel 13th Gen Core CPU line-up leaks with pricing

Recently, a retailer leaked what looked to be the full launch line-up for AMD's upcoming Ryzen 7000 series CPUs. Now, two retailers have leaked Intel's launch line-up for its 13th Gen Core “Raptor Lake” processors. 

The listings found by @momomo_us (1, 2) on two different Canadian store websites suggest the 13th Gen Core processors won't come cheap. The most affordable Raptor Lake-S CPUs are the Core i5-13600K/KF, which will go for $461 (CAD) and $424 (CAD). That converts to £301 and £277 GBP, respectively. However, note that these prices don't include taxes, meaning even the cheapest Core i5 processor will probably go for over £300 if the prices shown in these listings are accurate.

The Core i7 chips increase the pricing to $626 (13700KF) and $663 (13700K), which turns to about £409 and £433 GBP. With taxes, the unlocked, K-series i7 chip may even go for as much as £500. On top of the hierarchy, we find the Core i9-13900KF and i9-13900K at $901 (CAD) and $941 (CAD), which works out to around £589 and £615 GBP. Considering taxes, the i9 CPU may end up costing around £700.

Intel is set to announce its 13th Gen Core processors on the 27th of September, with availability following in October.

KitGuru says: These prices could be placeholder estimates, so we'll have to wait for Intel to confirm official MSRPs. Still depending on supply and demand, prices can always shift  in the months after launch.
