Intel today launched its 13th Generation Core "Raptor Lake" mobile processor family. Mobile (notebook) processors make the bulk of Intel's client processor sales, and so the company is targeting a variety of form-factors and markets. The series begins with the 13th Gen Core HX line of enthusiast-segment processors for gamers, on-site creators, and mobile workstations. These processors come with core-counts of up to 8P+16E, making them the first 24-core mobile processors. The chips are classified as having 55 W TDP, with maximum turbo power values set as high as 155 W.

The 13th Gen Core HX family includes three 8P+16E processor models, led by the Core i9-13980HX, a unique 8P+12E model leading the Core i7 pack, the i7-13700HX; some 8P+8E models, followed by 6P+8E and 6P+4E models making up the Core i5 lineup. All parts have 55 W base power, and 157 W max turbo power, at least three of these get the full vPro Enterprise feature-set.
