DOOM Eternal
Thanks to the addition of E cores even in the lowest Core i5 Raptor Lake models (13400F and 13400), the raw performance between generations has advanced the most in years. However, the improvement may not always happen, the relatively small number of performance ones (P) combined with the lower Turbo Boost 2.0 clock speeds some games don’t like, and when they reach for E cores, the concept of big.LITTLE is at once detrimental.

I wonder how the gaming results, especially power consumption, would look with E-cores turned off. Also, whether the Raptor Lake stepping has any performance advantage over Alder Lake one.
We will do ASAP.
After all, it seems that it might not be so easy to get Ci5-13400F in stepping B0. Big domestic shops (on the Czech-Slovak market) have only stepping C0 available, but we believe that sooner or later at least one piece will appear for testing. The availability of the variant based on Raptor Cove will probably be very low.
When we were looking for Ci5-12400 stepping H0 last year, they were also in the minority, but there were still some, about in 40/60 ratio (H0/C0). It’s worse over here, and Intel is obviously trying to use as many B0 “silicon” as possible for more powerful processors.
