Intel Raptor Lake Next CPUs are shipping, with records revealing cache and clock speed specs

The rumoured 14600K replacement looks faster than a Core i7-13700K, if the specs listed in these shipping records are correct.

Intel Raptor Lake Next CPUs have been shipping from Vietnam since August 2026, according to global trade and customs data. We’ve spotted four different models appearing in shipping records, which also include specs data about clock speeds and cache.

The company has been widely rumoured to have plans for a new roll out of CPUs based in its ageing Raptor Lake architecture for a while now, with their support for both DDR4 and DDR5 RAM potentially making them popular upgrades during the RAM pricing crisis. Leaks point to the forthcoming lineup including a Core i5 14600K replacement with eight P-Cores and eight E-Cores, although there apparently won’t be a Core i9 Raptor Lake Next chip.

The shipping records we’ve spotted back up this information, and help to fill out some of the potential details, which we’ve summarised in the table below:

Part numberBase clockCacheExpected core configExpected TDP

8x E-Cores
125W
99DLMT2.1GHz33MB8x P-Cores

65W
99DLMW2.6GHz24MB6x P-Cores
4x E-Cores
65W
99DLMX2.6GHz24MBUnknown65W

All the clock speeds listed in these shipping records are quite low, so we’re assuming they’re base frequencies rather than peak boost clocks. Meanwhile, the amounts of cache correspond with previous leaks.

For example, there’s rumoured to be a Core i7-level chip with a 65W TDP. This correlates with the 99DLMT in the shipping records, with the same 33MB of shared L3 cache as a Core i7-14700K. The comparatively low 2.1GHz base clock would also make sense with that 65W TDP.

Meanwhile, the 99DLMV looks like the rumoured 14600K replacement, with eight P-Cores and eight E-Cores. The 30MB of L3 cache listed in the shipping records is the same amount you’ll find in a Core i7-13700K, which has the same core configuration. This chip is also rumoured to have a 125W TDP, which again makes sense with the comparatively high 3.5GHz base frequency. The latter is actually higher than the 13700K’s 3.4GHz base clock.

Intel Raptor Lake Next shipping records

Finally, we have what looks like a pair of models with 2.6GHz base clocks and 24MB of L3 cache. Two models are listed – the 99DLMW and 99DLMX, but the same specs appear for both chips. Previous rumours have pointed to a lower-end Core i5-level chip releasing in this lineup, with six P-Cores and four E-Cores, much like the current Core i5-14400F. However, the latter only has 20MB of L3 cache, and it looks as though this new chip(s) will have more.

All these CPUs are described as FCLGA (flip-chip land grade array) models in the shipping records, meaning they should all be desktop processors, rather than mobile models. We’ll be intrigued to find out the difference between the 99DLMX and 99DLMW.

Hopefully we won’t have long to wait until these rumoured new Raptor Lake CPUs get a full announcement and we can see all the details, but several CPUs are clearly shipping out of Vietnam at the moment, where Intel has a big assembly and testing facility.
