Intel's upcoming Raptor Lake-HX is now almost confirmed thanks to a recent leak of an MSI Raider GE78 HX laptop powered by the Core i9-13980HX on Geekbench. The CPU seems to be offering desktop-class performance with single-core and multi-core scores almost on par with a 170 W AMD Ryzen 9 7950X. The Core i9-13980HX also seems to be signficantly faster than a leaked 12-core Apple M2 Max running the same benchmark.

yes faster by using 5x as much power, only plugged in, with 60dB fan noise. Or with 2 hours battery life and 70% less performance than plugged in. Would prefer the macbook laptop over this mobile desktop
