Intel Core i5-13600K

amazon Intel Core i5-13600K reviews

In addition to having more cores than its predecessor Core i5-12600K, Core i5-13600K also comes with more threads, namely 14 cores and 20 threads compared to just 10 cores and 16 threads found on the Core i5- 12600K.

Having more threads means your CPU can handle more things at once, so having more threads allows more apps to run at the same time, which also improves performance in multithreaded tasks. Multithreaded tasks include anything that requires processing multiple operations at once, as your PC needs to take in a lot of information at once for it to work smoothly.

Temperature problem

Core i5-13600K has improved performance compared to its predecessor, however, the temperature factor is still a problem that makes technology users a headache to be able to choose the right type of heat sink for Core i5-13600K.

Below is the actual test for us to get a detailed look at the temperature of the Intel Core i5-13600K CPU when accompanied by 5 air cooler codes selected by Biareview.

All components that come with Core i5-13600K and 5 air cooling codes are guaranteed to perform a better response to the test requirements of the test.

All 5 air coolers are tested to run Cinebench R23 for 10 minutes, this test aims to record the CPU temperature according to the power consumption corresponding to each and the achieved clock level. Let’s see the results that each air cooler is selected.

1, Noctua NH-D15

NH-D15 – this is the most expensive air cooler and it is also at the top of the best heat-dissipation air coolers.

The test has produced the following results: the TDP of the i5-13600K is stable at 150W, the P Core clock is 5.1 GHz, the E Core clock is 3.9 GHz, and what gets the most attention that’s the temperature, the temperature stays at 80 degrees. This is quite an ideal temperature, Biareview has selected the best-performing air cooler and used Noctua thermal paste in the array of air cooler accessories.

2, Noctua NH-U12A

Another heatsink from Noctua, specifically the code of this air cooler is Noctua NH-U12A, the price of U12A is similar to that of NH-D15.

The test has produced the following results: TDP is stable at 150W, P Core clock level is in the range of 5.1 GHz, E Core clock level is 3.9 GHz, the temperature is a bit higher, that is 82 degrees during the run of Cinebench R23.

The heat dissipation performance of the U12A is still slightly worse than that of the NH-D15, the temperature of the NH-D15 is 2 degrees lower than the U12A with the same P Core clock and E Core clock.

3, DEEPCOOL AK620

The third air cooler comes from the Deepcool brand, with the full code name DEEPCOOL AK620, the AK620 also delivers a very good heat dissipation effect.

The test gave the following results: TDP kept at 149W, E Core clock rate reached 3.9 GHz, P Core clock rate reached 5.1 GHz, and temperature level was 85 degrees.

The AK620 has the same P Core and E Core clock rates as the NH-D15 and NH-U12A, the temperature of the AK620 is higher than the above 2 exhaust codes, the TDP 149W and the temperature does not decrease.

4, ID-Cooling CPU SE-207-A

With prices ranging from about 1 million to 1 and a half million, the SE-207 is an extremely bright choice.

The test process has produced the following results: Core i5-13600K has a TDP of 148W, a P Core clock rate of between 5.1 GHz, an E Core clock rate of 3.9 GHz, and a temperature of 85 degrees.

SE-207 A has P Core and E Core clock levels equal to NH-D15, AK620, and NH-U12A, SE-207 A’s temperature is higher than 2 NH-D15, U12A, and equal to AK620.

5, ID COOLING SE-226

The test process gave the following results: SE 226 has the lowest TDP of 5 air coolers selected by Biareview to test heat dissipation performance, specifically when going with SE 226, Core i5-13600K has a TDP of 147W, a P Core clock of 5.1 GHz, an E Core clock of 3.9 GHz, and a temperature of 86 degrees.

SE-226 has the same P Core and E Core clock rates as NH-D15, AK620, NH-U12A, and SE-207 A, SE-207 A’s temperature is higher than NH-D15, U12A, AK620, and SE-207 A, specifically about above 85 degrees.

Conclude

With the results of the heat dissipation performance of 5 air coolers in the actual test performed by Biareview, it can be concluded that – With Intel Core i5-13600K, choosing a heat sink is extremely simple. It’s simple when you just need an air cooler from $50 to be able to stand by Intel Core i5-13600K well.

The choice of water coolers will help keep the Core i5-13600K’s temperature stable and performance will also be maintained stably in the long run.
