Aw, geeze, I just got gifted a new PC for father's day, now I have shit to do...

Edit 13th Gen Raptor Lake i5-13400F at 65W.

Well, fuck me.

My understanding is that 13th gen CPU's below 13600K are rebadged Alder Lake (12th gen) chips therefore aren't affected by this issue.

Apparently... "it's complicated". There ARE Raptor lake variants of this CPU, they are just less common.

Only way to tell if it's Alder or Raptor is by checking the S-Spec Code:

Alder Lake, S-Spec code SRMBN
Raptor Lake, S-Spec code SRMBG
