Only when paired with a 13900K:

Intel Core i9-13900K Raptor Lake CPU With 5.8 GHz Boost Clock, 350W “Unlimited Power Setting” Up To 67% Faster Than AMD Ryzen 9 5950X In Cinebench

Intel's Core i9-13900K Raptor Lake CPU benchmarks just keep pouring in a whole two months prior to its expected launch. The latest benchmarks come from OneRaichu who shows the max potential of the chip with an "Unlimited Power" setting and a default boost frequency of 5.8 GHz.

345W...

I wonder how long the Mobo will last with so much power running through them. And how long the CPU will survive running at this setting!

First you'll need to be able to cool it. This is from a follow up article at Videocardz (sorry for stealing your news, Yuri):

Core i9-13900K breaks 40K points in Cinebench R23 with unlimited power and 5.8 GHz clock

The same Intel CPU has been tested by ECSM, but using different tools. This sample was tested with AIDA64 Stability Test, while HWiNFO window was recording behavior of each core. It shows that 2 out of 8 available Raptor Cove cores reached 5.8 GHz at some point throughout the test. The remaining Performance cores were running at 5.5 GHz while all 16 Efficient cores reached a stable 4.3 GHz clock.

For this test 360mm AIO liquid cooler was used while the CPU package reached 90°C temperature and 314W consumption, suggesting that this CPU as well was tested with unlimited power.

Either he's using a crappy 360 AIO cooler, or this thing will be very difficult to keep cool.

By the way, we've gone past the fact that even in limited mode, this beast uses more than the unlocked 12900K's 241W. Those efficiency cores don't seem to be very efficient to me.
