intel accidentally leaked raptor lake processor specs

Intel’s upcoming 13th-generation processors (codenamed Raptor Lake) have accidentally had their specs leaked by Intel itself, just a day after an official announcement that at least one of the new CPUs will run at 6GHz at stock speeds.

The Core i5-13600K, i7-13700K, and i9-13900K CPUs had their specs posted on Intel’s Canadian website before the computing giant realized its error and pulled the information. Twitter users were quick to spread the gaffe (which you can still find here in a cached version from the Wayback machine).

The article revealed that the top-of-the-line i9 13900K will feature 24 cores and 32 threads, with the performance cores running at a maximum frequency of 5.4GHz. The i7 13700K will be available with 16 cores and 24 threads, with up to 5.3GHz on the performance cores. Finally, the i5 13600K will ship with 14 cores and 20 threads with a max frequency of 5.1GHz on the performance cores.

All of this information comes from an official source, so it unsurprisingly matches leaked slides that appeared online last week. The official-looking media mentioned that both the 13th Gen Core i9 and Core i7 processors will be able to deploy two performance cores, boosting up to 5.8GHz via Intel’s Thermal Velocity Boost.

Intel still hasn’t officially announced its Raptor Lake processors but has offered a teaser that they will give a 15% improvement in single-threaded performance and a 41% improvement for multi-threaded work.

We’ll hear the official roadmap for these processors during the company’s September 27th innovation event, which interestingly is being held on the same day AMD is set to announce its own 16-core powerhouse — the Ryzen 9 7950X.

uae prepares to launch two satellites thuraya-2 and mbz-sat

HH Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Deputy Prime Minister of the UAE, chaired the first meeting of the Supreme Space Council in Dubai on December 16, 2024. The session highlighted the UAE’s ambitious space plans and took stock of the sector’s economic progress.

The council emphasized the growing role of private companies in advancing space technologies, noting that their contributions are now equal to that of the public sector. Members also praised initiatives like the Space Economic Zones Programme, which are designed to fuel innovation and investment in the space industry.

Discussing the UAE’s space journey, HH Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum remarked, “The national space sector continues to grow and advance, and we take immense pride in the remarkable achievements we have accomplished over the years”.

Sheikh Hamdan also received updates on two upcoming satellite projects: Thuraya-2 and MBZ-SAT. Thuraya-2, developed by Space42, is slated for launch this December. Meanwhile, the MBZ-SAT, created by the Mohammed Bin Rashid Space Centre (MBRSC), will soon follow. MBRSC, a major driver of the UAE National Space Programme, continues to lead the nation’s space-related developments.

Space42 took the opportunity to showcase its advancements, including ongoing collaborations between public and private entities. The company also outlined strategies to promote innovation, boost revenue streams, and create new opportunities for growth in the sector.

The UAE’s current projects build on a growing legacy of space exploration. Back in 2020, the nation made headlines with its Mars mission, successfully sending a probe into the planet’s orbit in 2021. This mission, which is now in its second phase as of June 2024, has been collecting critical data to develop a comprehensive diurnal image of Mars.

The UAE also ventured into lunar exploration with an unmanned mission aimed at studying untouched regions of the Moon’s surface. While the probe ultimately crashed during its landing attempt after communication was lost seconds before touchdown, the effort represented a significant step in the country’s exploration ambitions.
