This page analyzes the Intel Core i9-13905H and Intel Arc A350M as a laptop build. The CPU is a 14-core/20-thread Raptor Lake-H part with an 87th percentile all-CPU score; the GPU is an Xe-HPG Arc 3 Mobile part with a 70th percentile all-GPU score. The combined build percentile is 79. There are no measured FPS rows for this exact combination: the FACT PACK’s `measuredFpsUltraByGame` is empty, `dataIsMeasured` is false, and `pairRankByFps` is null. All game frame-rate discussion on this page is therefore an estimate from benchmark scores, not a measured result.

Benchmark Performance

Starting with the CPU, the Intel Core i9-13905H produces a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 20034 and a single-core score of 2020. In Cinebench R20, it scores 10605 multi-core and 1497 single-core. Older Cinebench R15 results are 2857 multi-core and 246 single-core. Passmark results reinforce the same pattern: 29779 for multi-thread, 3703 for single-thread, with the two Passmark single-thread entries both reporting 3703.

The CPU’s average benchmark score is 40313, which places it at the 87th percentile of all CPUs. The nearest rival data shows how tightly grouped this part is: the Intel Xeon 6369P averages 40327 with a deltaPct of 0, the AMD Ryzen 9 270 averages 40246 with a deltaPct of 0.2, the Intel Xeon 6507P averages 40426 with a deltaPct of -0.3, and the AMD Ryzen 9 7940H averages 40431 with a deltaPct of -0.3. In other words, the i9-13905H trades places with those parts within a fraction of a percent.

The Intel Arc A350M has a much smaller benchmark footprint. It scores 24546 in Geekbench OpenCL and 24747 in Geekbench Vulkan, for an average benchmark score of 24647. That places it at the 70th percentile of all GPUs. Its nearest rivals are the AMD Radeon RX 590 at 24744 with a deltaPct of -0.4, the NVIDIA RTX A5000 Mobile at 24763 with a deltaPct of -0.5, the AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT at 24442 with a deltaPct of 0.8, and the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1630 at 24277 with a deltaPct of 1.5. The A350M is therefore near the RX 590 and RTX A5000 Mobile in average Geekbench terms, while sitting slightly above the RX 6600 XT and GTX 1630.

The combined picture is a CPU-forward system. The CPU sits at the 87th percentile, the GPU at the 70th, and the whole build at the 79th combined percentile. That places the pairing above a typical laptop in overall performance, but the graphics half is clearly the weaker side of the build.

Q: Why are there no measured FPS numbers in this analysis?

A: The FACT PACK contains no `measuredFps` rows for this exact CPU+GPU combination, and `dataIsMeasured` is false. Frame-rate expectations can only be estimated from benchmark scores.

Q: Does the CPU have integrated graphics?

A: Yes. The Core i9-13905H includes Iris Xe Graphics with 96 execution units, in addition to the Arc A350M GPU in the system.

Upgrade Path and Platform

The platform is a mobile one. The CPU uses the Intel BGA 1744 socket, is listed in the mobile market segment, and belongs to Intel’s Raptor Lake-H generation. The GPU is listed with a slot width of IGP, and its bus interface is PCIe 4.0 x8. The CPU itself exposes PCIe Gen 5 with 8 lanes, noted as CPU-only. That split matters: the CPU has Gen 5 lanes, while the GPU connects over PCIe 4.0 x8.

Memory support is flexible on the CPU side, with DDR4 and DDR5 both supported on a dual-channel bus. No ECC support is listed. The platform also has a 45 W CPU TDP and a 25 W GPU TDP. No suggested PSU value is present in the data, so PSU headroom cannot be quantified from this FACT PACK; the only power figures available are the 45 W and 25 W TDPs.

The upgrade path is constrained by the mobile form factor. The BGA 1744 socket and IGP-class GPU slot width indicate that component-level CPU or GPU swaps are not supported by the data. The CPU is active, but the GPU is end-of-life, and the GPU’s 70th percentile sits well below the CPU’s 87th. A sensible next upgrade, based on this information, would be a system-level move to a different laptop platform rather than trying to upgrade the graphics chip in this one.

CPU Analysis

The Core i9-13905H is a 14-core, 20-thread Raptor Lake processor with the Raptor Lake-H codename. It is built on Intel’s 10 nm process with a die size of 257 mm². The base clock is 2.60 and the boost clock is 5.40. The 45 W TDP places it in the high-performance mobile range, and the CPU’s production status is active.

Cache resources are substantial. There is 80 KB of L1 per core, 2 MB of L2 per core, and 24 MB of shared L3 cache. That feeds a part designed for heavily threaded work: in Cinebench R23, the multi-core score of 20034 is far above the single-core score of 2020. The R20 result of 10605 multi-core and R15 result of 2857 multi-core follow the same trend. Passmark multithread performance is 29779, with a single-thread score of 3703.

The additional Passmark workloads show where this CPU is strong. Integer math scores 101716, floating point math scores 73434, data compression scores 354330, data encryption scores 20464, extended instructions score 21297, random string sorting scores 37460, physics scores 2054, and find prime numbers scores 122. These numbers describe a CPU that can handle compilation, data-heavy workloads, encryption, and floating-point throughput well. The CPU’s launch MSRP is $697.

At the 87th percentile of all CPUs, the i9-13905H is a high-ranking mobile processor. Its average benchmark score of 40313 puts it within about 0.3% of the Xeon 6369P, Ryzen 9 270, Xeon 6507P, and Ryzen 9 7940H in the nearest-rivals table. That is an unusually dense cluster for a laptop CPU, meaning buyers of this part are getting performance comparable to those other high-end processors in average benchmarks.

Balance and Bottleneck

The biggest imbalance in this pairing is the gap between CPU and GPU percentiles. The CPU is at 87, the GPU is at 70, and the build as a whole sits at 79. Without measured FPS rows, there is no direct frame-time evidence, but the percentile spread itself is the clearest signal in the data.

In CPU-heavy workloads, the i9-13905H is unlikely to be the limiting component. The Passmark results show high throughput in integer math, floating point math, data compression, and encryption. For those tasks, the GPU is largely irrelevant, and the CPU’s 87th percentile means the processor is the strong half of the system.

In GPU-heavy workloads, the Arc A350M becomes the constraint. Its 70th percentile is below the CPU’s 87th, and its Geekbench scores of 24546 OpenCL and 24747 Vulkan define a graphics compute ceiling that is much lower than the CPU’s processing ceiling. For gaming at ultra-quality settings, the GPU’s 4 GB GDDR6 frame buffer and 112.0 GB/s memory bandwidth are the resources that will determine whether the system can keep up.

FPS scaling cannot be quantified from this FACT PACK because no measured FPS data exists. However, the percentile structure suggests that lowering graphics load would shift the balance toward the CPU. The CPU has high single-thread performance — a Passmark single-thread score of 3703 and a boost clock of 5.40 — so in less GPU-limited scenarios, the processor has enough headroom to become the pacing component instead.

GPU Analysis

The Intel Arc A350M is based on the DG2-128 chip and uses Intel’s Xe-HPG architecture. It belongs to the Alchemist generation, specifically Arc 3 Mobile. The GPU is manufactured on TSMC’s 6 nm process with 7,200 million transistors on a 157 mm² die, giving a transistor density of 45.9M per mm². Its production status is end-of-life, and its release date is 2022-03-29.

Memory is a defining characteristic. The A350M has 4 GB of GDDR6 on a 64-bit bus, with 112.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The memory clock is 1750 MHz, described in the data as 14 Gbps effective. That is a compact memory subsystem, and it sets a firm limit on how much data the GPU can move in high-resolution or high-texture workloads.

The compute configuration includes 768 shading units, 48 texture mapping units, and 24 ROPs. There are 6 RT cores, while no tensor core count is listed in the data. Clock speeds are 1150 MHz base and 2200 MHz boost. The pixel rate is 52.80 GPixel/s, the texture rate is 105.6 GTexel/s, and the FP32 throughput is 3.379 TFLOPS. FP16 throughput is 6.758 TFLOPS, listed with a 2:1 ratio.

API support is modern: DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. The 6 RT cores mean hardware ray tracing is present, but the GPU’s overall 70th percentile and 4 GB memory capacity make it a mainstream-class part rather than a high-end renderer. In Geekbench, the OpenCL score of 24546 and Vulkan score of 24747 are close, indicating similar performance across those two compute interfaces.

Against its nearest rivals, the A350M’s average score of 24647 is 0.4% below the Radeon RX 590, 0.5% below the RTX A5000 Mobile, 0.8% above the Radeon RX 6600 XT, and 1.5% above the GeForce GTX 1630. This positions it in the same general performance class as those GPUs in the benchmark database, despite the very different memory and feature configurations.

Who Should Build It

This is a laptop build for users who need strong CPU throughput and are willing to accept mid-tier graphics. The CPU’s 87th percentile and the build’s 79th combined percentile make it a fit for workloads that are primarily processor-driven.

Content creators can use the CPU’s Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 20034 and Passmark multithread score of 29779 for multithreaded rendering tasks. The high integer math score of 101716, floating point math score of 73434, and data compression score of 354330 also support heavy data-processing workflows.

Developers are another match. The CPU’s extended instructions score of 21297 and encryption score of 20464 indicate useful throughput for code compilation, hashing, and data transformation workloads. The 14-core/20-thread configuration provides ample parallelism for build servers or local development machines in a laptop form factor.

Students and small business workstation users who run mixed productivity workloads would also fit this system. The laptop-class design, active CPU status, 45 W CPU TDP, and 25 W GPU TDP make it a portable machine with high CPU capability. The integrated Iris Xe Graphics 96EU provides an additional display output option alongside the Arc A350M.

Gamers should approach this build as a CPU-first gaming laptop. The GPU’s 70th percentile and 4 GB frame buffer mean it is not aimed at maximum graphics fidelity, but the CPU’s high percentile gives the system strong responsiveness in less GPU-limited scenarios.

Build Overview

The Intel Core i9-13905H and Intel Arc A350M form a laptop build with a combined 79th percentile. The CPU is the dominant component by percentile: it sits at 87, while the GPU sits at 70. This is a CPU-forward configuration.

The CPU is active, part of Intel’s Core 13th Gen series, and built on Raptor Lake. The GPU is end-of-life, built on Xe-HPG, and belongs to Intel’s Arc 3 Mobile generation. The build class is laptop, and the platform uses Intel BGA 1744 for the CPU. Overall, this pairing belongs in the upper-middle tier of the database: clearly above average for combined performance, but held back from the top tier by the graphics component.

Gaming Performance

There is no measured FPS data for this exact combination. The FACT PACK’s `measuredFpsUltraByGame` table is empty, `dataIsMeasured` is false, and `pairRankByFps` is null. Therefore, no measured frame-rate figures can be reported here. All gaming statements in this section are estimates derived from benchmark scores.

The CPU-side evidence is strong: a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 20034, a Passmark single-thread score of 3703, and a boost clock of 5.40. Those numbers suggest a processor that can feed demanding games well in CPU-bound situations. The GPU-side evidence is more moderate: a Geekbench Vulkan score of 24747, an OpenCL score of 24546, and a 70th percentile ranking. The A350M’s average benchmark score of 24647 places it very close to the Radeon RX 590 and RTX A5000 Mobile in the nearest-rivals table, which provides a class anchor for expected graphics performance.

At ultra-quality settings, the GPU is likely to be the primary limiting factor. The 4 GB GDDR6 frame buffer, 64-bit memory bus, and 112.0 GB/s bandwidth are the constraints that would affect high-texture or high-resolution gaming. At lower graphics settings, the CPU’s high single-thread score and boost clock could become the relevant pacing component. However, without measured FPS rows, the exact scaling between settings cannot be quantified from this data set. Frame-rate expectations should therefore be treated as estimates based on the benchmark profile, not as tested results.
