Be civil. Uncivil language, slurs, and insults will result in a ban. If you can't say something respectfully, don't say it at all.
No Unoriginal Sources, Referral links or Paywalled Articles.
All posts must be related to Intel or Intel products.
Give competitors' recommendations only where appropriate. If a user asks for Intel only (i.e. i5-12600k vs i5-13400?) recommendations, do not reply with non-Intel recommendations. Commenting on a build pic saying they should have gone AMD/Nvidia is also inappropriate, don't be rude. Let people enjoy things.
CPU Cooling problems: Just like 95C is normal for Ryzen, 100C is normal for Intel CPUs in many workloads. If you're worried about CPU temperatures, please look at reviews for the laptop or CPU cooler you're using.

a friend of mine want to build a PC and we're struggling at picking a CPU. our range is 13400f-13500-13600KF. While i dont like youtube videos as benchmark, i must admit they were quite consistent regarding a behaviour i cant understand. In those video, each of those CPUS have a fixed frequency of
4.09 Ghz, 4.49 Ghz and 5.1 Ghz respectively. While the 5.1Ghz of the 13600K/KF are quite understandable, as Intel's ark website state the max boost frequency for a 13600KF is 5.1ghz, why the 13400f, advertised having a max frequency of 4.6ghz, is stuck at 4.09 and the 13500 shows 4.49Ghz instead of the advertised 4.8 ? I believe it is TDP/power limit related but they do not seems to draw that much power.

One of those vidz if anyone need to see it.
