The Intel Core i7-13790F and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 AD106 form a desktop pairing that sits squarely in the upper-midrange of the performance spectrum, with a combined percentile of 72. The CPU is a 16-core, 24-thread Raptor Lake-S part on Intel Socket 1700, with a base clock of 2.10 GHz and a boost clock of 5.20 GHz. Its architecture uses a 10 nm process from Intel, with a die size of 257 mm², and it carries 33 MB of shared L3 cache alongside 2 MB of L2 and 80 KB of L1 per core. The GPU is an Ada Lovelace design on TSMC's 5 nm node, featuring 3072 shading units, 24 RT cores, and 96 tensor cores, with a boost clock of 2460 MHz. The CPU's average benchmark score of 63080 places it at the 93rd percentile among all CPUs, while the GPU holds a 50th percentile position, indicating a strong processor paired with a mid-pack graphics card.

CPU Analysis

The Core i7-13790F is a 16-core processor with 24 threads, a configuration that excels in heavily threaded workloads like video rendering, code compilation, and 3D modeling. Its Raptor Lake architecture uses a hybrid design—performance cores for latency-sensitive tasks and efficient cores for background workloads—though the FACT PACK does not specify the core type breakdown. The base clock of 2.10 GHz is modest, but the 5.20 GHz boost clock shows significant headroom for single-threaded bursts, which is critical for gaming and responsive application launches.

In Cinebench R23, the CPU scores 35404 in multi-core and 4998 in single-core. The multi-core figure is the headline: it indicates that the processor can sustain heavy all-core loads without throttling dramatically, making it a capable workstation chip. The single-core score of 4998 is similarly strong, suggesting that the chip will not feel sluggish in tasks that rely on one or two threads. The Cinebench R20 results—14869 multi-core and 2099 single-core—reinforce the same picture, with the multi-core score being roughly seven times the single-core score, a ratio typical of a high-core-count part.

The Passmark suite adds nuance. The multithread score of 44737 and the single-thread score of 4212 show good scaling across cores. The integer math score of 151416 and floating point math score of 110512 indicate that the CPU handles both general-purpose and scientific calculations well. Data compression scores 567473, which is a strong result for archiving and file management, while data encryption at 31703 is more moderate, possibly reflecting the lack of dedicated encryption acceleration features. The find prime numbers score of 207 is low in absolute terms but is a synthetic stress test that benefits from high clock speeds more than core counts.

Relative to its nearest rivals, the i7-13790F is competitive. It trails the Intel Core Ultra 7 265HX by 0.1% in average score, sits 0.4% ahead of the AMD Ryzen AI Embedded P185, is 0.4% behind the AMD Ryzen AI 7 450G, and leads the Intel Core Ultra 7 255HX by 0.5%. These deltas are tiny—within noise—meaning that in real-world use, the i7-13790F is effectively on par with these processors. The 93rd percentile ranking confirms that, in the broader CPU market, this chip is in the top tier for overall processing power.

Benchmark Performance

The CPU's average benchmark score is 63080, with a percentile of 93. This means it outperforms 93% of all CPUs in the database, making it a high-end processor for any desktop build. The GPU, however, has no benchmark scores listed and sits at the 50th percentile, indicating it is exactly average in its class. The combined percentile for the build is 72, reflecting the CPU's strength pulling the overall rating up.

For the CPU, the Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 35404 is the most representative of sustained all-core performance. This score suggests that the processor can handle long video exports or 3D renders without becoming a bottleneck, as it outperforms the vast majority of desktop chips. The single-core score of 4998 is also notable, as it places the CPU in a position where it will not drag down frame rates in lightly threaded games. The Passmark data compression score of 567473 is particularly high, making this CPU a strong choice for users who frequently pack and unpack large files.

The GPU's lack of benchmark data means its performance must be inferred from its specifications. With 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 128-bit bus, it offers 272.0 GB/s of bandwidth, which is adequate for 1080p and 1440p gaming but may be limiting at higher resolutions with large textures. The FP32 throughput of 15.11 TFLOPS and the pixel rate of 118.1 GPixel/s indicate a mid-range card that will handle modern titles at medium-to-high settings, but it will not compete with high-end GPUs. The RTX 4060 AD106's 50th percentile ranking confirms this: it is a mainstream card, not a performance flagship.

The combined picture is that this build is CPU-dominated. The processor is a top-10% part, while the graphics card is a middle-of-the-road option. For productivity tasks that rely on the CPU, this system will feel fast and responsive. For gaming, the GPU will be the limiting factor, capping performance at what a mid-range card can deliver.

Upgrade Path and Platform

The Core i7-13790F uses the Intel Socket 1700 platform, which supports both DDR4 and DDR5 memory in a dual-channel configuration. This flexibility means a builder can choose between cheaper DDR4 modules or faster DDR5 kits, depending on budget and performance needs, though the FACT PACK does not provide bandwidth numbers for either memory type. The CPU offers PCIe Gen 5 with 20 lanes from the processor, which is forward-looking for fast NVMe SSDs and future GPUs, though the included RTX 4060 uses PCIe 4.0 x8.

The CPU has a TDP of 65 W, which is low for a 16-core part, suggesting that it is power-efficient under typical loads. The GPU has a TDP of 115 W, and the suggested PSU for the graphics card is 300 W. This is a modest power requirement, meaning that a build with these components can be paired with a moderately sized power supply without issue. The GPU is dual-slot and uses a single 12-pin power connector, which is standard for modern cards.

A sensible next upgrade for this system would be to replace the GPU with a higher-tier card, as the CPU has significant headroom. The i7-13790F's 93rd percentile CPU score means it will not bottleneck most graphics cards, so a user could move to a more powerful GPU for better gaming performance without changing the platform. Alternatively, adding more memory or faster storage would be straightforward, given the DDR4/DDR5 support and PCIe Gen 5 lanes. The CPU's 65 W TDP also means that a capable air cooler is sufficient, keeping the upgrade path simple.

Who Should Build It

This build targets users who need strong CPU performance but do not require top-tier graphics. Gamers at 1080p with high-refresh monitors will benefit from the CPU's strong single-core score of 4998 in Cinebench R23, which helps maintain high frame rates in CPU-bound scenarios, though the GPU will limit ultimate FPS. Content creators who work with video editing, 3D rendering, or data compression will find the 16-core CPU with a multi-core score of 35404 well-suited to their workloads, and the Passmark data compression score of 567473 makes it excellent for file archiving. Software developers will appreciate the multithread score of 44737 for compiling large codebases, and the integer math score of 151416 for general computation.

Students and small business workstations are also a fit, as the CPU's 93rd percentile performance ensures smooth multitasking across office applications, spreadsheets, and web apps, while the GPU's 50th percentile is sufficient for light graphics work or basic CAD. The platform's support for both DDR4 and DDR5 memory gives builders flexibility to match their budget. The low TDPs—65 W for the CPU and 115 W for the GPU—mean that this system can be built in a compact case with modest cooling, making it suitable for deskside workstations where noise and heat are concerns.

Balance and Bottleneck

The CPU is clearly the stronger component in this pairing, with a 93rd percentile ranking versus the GPU's 50th percentile. In CPU-heavy workloads such as video encoding, 3D rendering, or code compilation, the system will perform exceptionally well, with the i7-13790F's multi-core scores leading the way. The Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 35404 indicates that the processor can handle demanding all-core tasks without issue, and the Passmark multithread score of 44737 reinforces this.

In gaming, the GPU becomes the bottleneck. The RTX 4060's 8 GB memory and 128-bit bus are appropriate for 1080p gaming, but at higher resolutions or with ultra-quality settings, the GPU will saturate before the CPU does. The CPU's single-core performance is strong enough to feed the GPU with frames, but the GPU's raw throughput—15.11 TFLOPS FP32—is what will determine the final frame rate. The combined percentile of 72 reflects this imbalance: the overall system is above average, but not as strong as the CPU alone suggests.

The evidence points to a system where the CPU is underutilized in gaming scenarios. A more powerful GPU would allow the i7-13790F to stretch its legs, but the current pairing is balanced for productivity rather than pure gaming. For users who prioritize frame rates, upgrading the GPU would be the first step, while those who prioritize rendering or compilation speeds will find the CPU sufficient.

Usage Scenarios

High-refresh gaming at 1080p is a viable scenario, as the CPU's single-core score of 4998 in Cinebench R23 supports high FPS in esports titles, but the GPU's mid-range performance will cap the maximum frame rate. Streaming while gaming is feasible, as the CPU's 16 cores can handle encoding via software, though the GPU's 96 tensor cores could also assist with hardware encoding, freeing CPU resources.

Video editing in software like Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve will leverage the CPU's multi-core score of 35404, making timeline scrubbing and export faster than on lower-core-count parts. The 3D rendering in Blender or similar tools will also benefit, with the Cinebench R20 multi-core score of 14869 indicating strong performance in ray-traced workloads.

Software development is a strong use case, with the Passmark integer math score of 151416 and multithread score of 44737 speeding up builds and test runs. Students and office workers will find the system overkill for typical tasks, but the CPU's 93rd percentile ensures no slowdowns even with many browser tabs and office documents open, and the GPU is sufficient for presentation graphics or light photo editing.

Gaming Performance

No measured FPS rows exist for this exact CPU+GPU combination in the FACT PACK. Therefore, all gaming frame rate figures discussed here are estimates derived from the benchmark scores and component specifications, not measured data.

The RTX 4060 AD106's 50th percentile GPU ranking suggests it performs at the median for graphics cards, which typically translates to solid 1080p gaming at high settings in most titles. With 8 GB of GDDR6 memory and 272.0 GB/s of bandwidth, the card should handle 1080p ultra settings in many games, but 1440p may require turning down some options. The CPU's strong single-core performance—4998 in Cinebench R23—means it will not be the limiting factor in most games, so the GPU will dictate frame rates.

The GPU's pixel rate of 118.1 GPixel/s and texture rate of 236.2 GTexel/s are typical of a mid-range card, supporting the expectation of 60+ FPS at 1080p in most modern titles, with drops below 60 FPS possible in the most demanding games with ray tracing enabled. At 1440p, users should expect to adjust settings to high or medium to maintain playable frame rates. The 24 RT cores provide ray tracing acceleration, but the 15.11 TFLOPS FP32 throughput suggests that ray tracing will be a performance hit at higher resolutions.
