13th Gen Core i5-13420H

Measured performance for 13th Gen Core i5-13420H across 2 verified WhatFPS runs. Every number is measured in our benchmark suite — not estimated, not self-reported. CPU score (the processor's own performance): 6,702 on average over the best run per rig, best run 7,217 — #62 of 92 measured processors. The best rig we measured it in scored 4,372 GAMING (that number reflects the whole PC, not just 13th Gen Core i5-13420H). Most often paired with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 Laptop GPU.

What the numbers mean

The GAMING score is a geometric mean of GPU (63 %), CPU (30 %), RAM (5 %) and drive (2 %) — a weak part cannot hide behind a strong one. The CPU score is the hardware's own performance and what we rank on. Every run is HMAC-signed in the app and scored on the server. The full methodology is open at https://whatfps.com/metodik
