The Intel Core i7-13790F paired with the AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE forms a desktop combination sitting at the 90th percentile of all recorded builds in the database, built around a 16-core Raptor Lake processor and a 12 GB RDNA 4 accelerator. The CPU sits at the 93rd percentile of all CPUs with an average benchmark score of 63080, while the GPU holds the 87th percentile of all GPUs with an average score of 57367. This is a high-tier pairing whose defining trait is raw multi-core throughput on the processor side paired with a modern mid-to-upper graphics card built on a 4 nm process. Note that no measured frame-rate rows exist for this exact combination in the database — all FPS discussion below is framed as estimates derived from the benchmark scores rather than measured data.

CPU Analysis

The Core i7-13790F is a 16-core, 24-thread Raptor Lake-S processor built on Intel's 10 nm process, with a die size of 257 mm² and a base/boost clock pairing of 2.10 GHz and 5.20 GHz. The architecture is hybrid in character at the series level — 13th Gen Core — and the cache hierarchy is substantial: 80 KB of L1 and 2 MB of L2 per core, with a shared 33 MB block of L3 cache feeding the whole chip. That L3 pool is the workhorse for latency-sensitive workloads, and it explains much of the chip's strength in interactive tasks where working sets spill out of per-core cache.

The benchmark record shows a processor that performs near the top of the stack. In Cinebench R23, the chip posts 35404 points multi-core and 4998 points single-core — figures that indicate sustained all-core rendering throughput and strong per-thread responsiveness in the same package. Rolling back the versions, Cinebench R20 returns 14869 multi-core and 2099 single-core, and Cinebench R15 returns 3568 multi-core and 503 single-core. The multi-core scores are roughly seven times the single-core scores across R15 and R20, which is consistent with a 16-core design exploiting threading heavily in rendering workloads.

PassMark data fills out the picture. The passmark multithread result of 44737 pairs with a single-thread score of 4212 — a ratio of more than ten to one, showing how well threaded workloads scale on this part. Integer math sits at 151416, floating point math at 110512, extended instructions at 34828, and data compression at 567473, all of which point to capable throughput in compilation, archiving, encoding-adjacent tasks, and scientific-style number crunching. Encryption scores 31703, random string sorting scores 58607, find-prime-numbers scores 207, and physics lands at 3017 — a figure directly relevant to game simulation load, where the chip is clearly comfortable. The TDP is 65 W and the multiplier is locked, so sustained stock behavior rather than overclocking is the design intent.

Against its nearest rivals, the i7-13790F is in a dead heat. The Intel Core Ultra 7 265HX averages 63173 — just 0.1 percent ahead — while the AMD Ryzen AI 7 450G averages 63331 (0.4 percent ahead), the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P185 averages 62839 (0.4 percent behind), and the Intel Core Ultra 7 255HX averages 62738 (0.5 percent behind). All four rivals sit within half a percent of this chip's 63080 average. That clustering means the 13790F delivers next-tier threaded performance from its generation while remaining indistinguishable in aggregate score from newer parts.

Usage Scenarios

High-refresh gaming. With a single-thread score of 4212, a physics score of 3017, and a boost clock of 5.20 GHz, the CPU can drive high frame-rate gameplay where per-frame simulation matters. The RX 9070 GRE's percentile position means the pairing targets high-refresh play at mainstream resolutions, with the CPU unlikely to be the limiter except in heavily threaded simulation scenes.

Streaming. Streaming while gaming demands spare cores and strong encoding throughput, and the 16-core, 24-thread layout with a 44737 multithread score and a 567473 data-compression result provides exactly that. The headroom is real: the CPU's multi-core scaling leaves capacity available even when a game saturates a subset of threads.

Video editing. Cinebench R23 multi-core at 35404 and the R20 figure of 14869 indicate rendering-class throughput for timeline scrubbing, effects preview, and final export. The 33 MB shared L3 cache benefits media workloads with large working sets, and DDR5 support keeps memory bandwidth from becoming the choke point.

3D rendering. The R23 score of 35404 places this CPU in territory suited to serious rendering sessions, and the GPU's Geekbench OpenCL result of 109309 provides a GPU-accelerated path for engines that dispatch to OpenCL. CPU and GPU rendering both have credible numbers here.

Software development. Compilation is a threaded, integer-heavy workload, and the 151416 integer-math score plus the 63080 average benchmark score across a 24-thread pool make large builds fast. The 4212 single-thread score keeps interactive tasks — editors, interpreters, debuggers — responsive.

Student and office work. For documents, browsing, and light creative work, the single-core figures (4998 in Cinebench R23, 4212 in PassMark single-thread) guarantee snappy everyday behavior. This pairing is more than sufficient for that class of work, frankly over-provisioned, which means longevity rather than immediate necessity.

GPU Analysis

The Radeon RX 9070 GRE is a Navi 48 die on TSMC's 4 nm process, packing 53,900 million transistors into 357 mm² at a density of 151.0 million transistors per mm². That density figure is the generational story: RDNA 4.0 on 4 nm delivers a large feature set from a compact silicon budget. The die carries 3072 shading units, 192 texture mapping units, 96 render output units, and 48 RT cores, with FP32 throughput of 34.28 TFLOPS and FP16 at a 1:1 rate of 34.28 TFLOPS. Pixel rate is 267.8 GPixel/s and texture rate is 535.7 GTexel/s.

Clocks are aggressive for the class. Base sits at 1420 MHz, boost reaches 2790 MHz, and the game clock — the sustained real-world figure — is 2220 MHz. Memory is 12 GB of GDDR6 on a 192-bit bus, running at 2250 MHz with 18 Gbps effective speed, for 432.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The 48 RT cores matter for ray-traced rendering paths in modern engines, and DirectX 12 Ultimate support means the card exposes the full current feature set; Vulkan 1.4 and OpenGL 4.6 round out API coverage. No tensor cores are listed, so AI-assisted workload acceleration on this card is not part of the recorded spec.

The benchmark record is thin but directional. 3DMark Steel Nomad (DX12) returns 5424, and Geekbench OpenCL returns 109309. Against rivals, the RX 9070 GRE's average of 57367 sits 0.7 percent behind the Intel Arc A580 (57756), 1.2 percent behind the AMD Radeon RX 5600 OEM (58085), 1.5 percent behind the Intel Arc A570M (58239), and 1.8 percent behind the AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT (58392). Those deltas are small — under two percent in every case — meaning the card trades blows with a wide band of hardware while carrying the newest architecture and a 4 nm process among that group. For GPU rendering, the OpenCL score of 109309 indicates a capable compute engine for renderers that use that path.

Gaming Performance

No measured FPS rows exist for this exact CPU and GPU combination in the database, and the data-is-measured flag is false. Every frame-rate statement in this section is therefore an estimate derived from benchmark scores, not from captured gameplay.

What the scores support: a GPU at the 87th percentile with 34.28 TFLOPS of FP32 throughput and 432 GB/s of memory bandwidth, fed by a CPU at the 93rd percentile with a 4212 single-thread score and 3017 physics score, should produce high-refresh gameplay at 1080p and strong frame rates at 1440p. At 4K, the 12 GB VRAM buffer and 192-bit bus become the defining constraint; the card remains playable in most titles at that resolution but the estimates should be tempered accordingly. Ray-traced titles will lean on the 48 RT cores, with the usual frame-rate cost that implies. Because no per-game data is recorded, no specific title figures can be cited — the Steel Nomad score of 5424 and the percentile positions are the honest basis for expectation-setting here.

Balance and Bottleneck

This is a CPU-forward pairing. The processor sits at the 93rd percentile versus all CPUs while the GPU sits at the 87th percentile versus all GPUs, a gap that defines where the ceiling sits in each workload class. In heavily threaded applications — rendering, compilation, compression — the 44737 multithread score means the CPU is rarely the limiting factor and the GPU's contribution is workload-dependent. In gaming, the relationship inverts at higher resolutions: the RX 9070 GRE becomes the limiter as resolution scales, while the 13790F's single-thread and physics scores indicate it can push frames faster than the GPU can rasterize them at 1440p and above. At 1080p with undemanding titles, a CPU ceiling becomes plausible, but the GPU percentile position suggests this build is best aligned with resolutions where the graphics card is saturated first. The combined 90th percentile confirms a build that is strong on both axes rather than lopsided, with a mild tilt toward processor headroom.

Upgrade Path and Platform

The platform foundation is Intel Socket 1700, with support for both DDR4 and DDR5 on a dual-channel memory bus. That dual-generation memory support gives the build flexibility in how it is populated, and DDR5 is the forward-looking choice for bandwidth-sensitive workloads. PCIe connectivity is strong: the CPU provides Gen 5 with 20 lanes, and the RX 9070 GRE itself uses a PCIe 5.0 x16 interface, so the graphics link is fully matched to the host with no interface compromise. The card is dual-slot, draws power through two 8-pin connectors, and has a listed TDP of 220 W.

Power headroom is a key planning number. The GPU's suggested PSU is 550 W, and the CPU's TDP is 65 W. A system built around those figures has documented headroom for the pairing as specified; the locked multiplier on the 13790F means CPU overclocking is off the table, so the upgrade path on the processor side runs through a Socket 1700 replacement rather than tuning. Display connectivity is generous: one HDMI 2.1b and three DisplayPort 2.1a outputs support multi-monitor arrays at modern standards. A sensible next upgrade is a higher-percentile GPU, since the CPU's 93rd-percentile position means a faster graphics card would be well-fed; the reverse upgrade — a stronger CPU behind this GPU — would yield less, given the GPU already limits gaming at higher resolutions. The 13790F lacks integrated graphics in the recorded spec, so a functioning GPU is mandatory, not optional.

Benchmark Performance

The complete CPU record: Cinebench R15 multi-core 3568 and single-core 503; Cinebench R20 multi-core 14869 and single-core 2099; Cinebench R23 multi-core 35404 and single-core 4998; PassMark multithread 44737, single-thread 4212, physics 3017, integer math 151416, floating point math 110512, extended instructions 34828, data compression 567473, encryption 31703, string sorting 58607, and prime finding 207. The CPU's average benchmark score is 63080 at the 93rd percentile of all CPUs.

The GPU record: 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 at 5424 and Geekbench OpenCL at 109309, for an average benchmark score of 57367 at the 87th percentile of all GPUs. Rival positioning is within two percent of the Arc A580, RX 5600 OEM, Arc A570M, and RX 6950 XT.

The combined picture is a 90th-percentile desktop build. That single figure says the most: this pairing outperforms the vast majority of recorded configurations while neither component individually tops its class. The CPU cluster within half a percent of three Core Ultra and Ryzen AI rivals shows its performance has aged into parity with newer silicon; the GPU's sub-two-percent gaps to its rivals show it slots into a competitive band while offering the newest architecture in that group. Launch MSRP for the CPU was $441 and for the GPU 549 USD, each stated once here for the record.

Who Should Build It

Gamers targeting 1080p high-refresh and 1440p are the natural fit: the CPU's 4212 single-thread and 3017 physics scores remove processor-side doubt, while the GPU's 87th-percentile position and 34.28 TFLOPS of throughput carry the rendering load. Content creators benefit most from the CPU half of the pairing — the 35404 Cinebench R23 multi-core score and 44737 PassMark multithread result make this a genuine rendering and editing machine, with the GPU's OpenCL score of 109309 supporting accelerated workloads. Software developers get a 24-thread compilation engine with top-tier interactive responsiveness from the single-core figures. Students and office users will find the system dramatically over-provisioned for their needs, which translates to years of headroom rather than waste. Small business workstations doing data processing — compression at 567473, encryption at 31703, integer math at 151416 — are equally well served. Note that ECC memory is not supported, so fault-tolerant workstation deployments should look elsewhere.

Build Overview

This is a desktop-class build in the classic sense: a Socket 1700 Intel 13th Gen processor paired with an RDNA 4 graphics card over a PCIe 5.0 x16 link, with DDR4/DDR5 flexibility and a 550 W suggested PSU envelope. Its tier is high — the 90th combined percentile places it above the overwhelming majority of configurations in the database, with a CPU at the 93rd percentile and a GPU at the 87th forming a coherent, slightly CPU-forward balance. The pairing crosses vendor lines deliberately: Intel's threaded throughput on the processor side, AMD's 4 nm RDNA 4 efficiency and feature set on the graphics side, with DirectX 12 Ultimate support and 12 GB of VRAM providing current-generation credentials. For a builder wanting near-flagship CPU performance — statistically indistinguishable from several newer parts — alongside a modern, competitive graphics card, this combination is a well-matched, benchmark-verified choice.
