Intel Core i9-14900K/KF, Core i7-14700K/KF and Core i5-14600K/KF processors are presented.

The rest of the CPUs will be shown at the beginning of 2024

Intel introduced the 14th generation Core processors (Raptor Lake Refresh). As expected, today only older models with an unlocked multiplier were announced.

There were a lot of leaks about these CPUs, so Intel didn’t reveal anything new except the price. The new generation differs minimally from the previous one, except for the Core i7 models, which have four smaller cores compared to their predecessors.

Intel Core i9-14900K/KF, Core i7-14700K/KF, and Core i5-14600K/KF processors are presented.

But Intel did not raise prices, which is good, because there were such rumors. However, they were there last year too.

So, the characteristics of the new products are as follows:

Core i9-14900K/KF – 24 cores (8+16), frequencies 3.2–6.0 GHz, 36 MB L3 cache, TDP 125 W and price 590/565 dollars;

Core i7-14700K/KF – 20 cores (8+12), frequencies 3.4–5.6+ GHz, 33 MB L3 cache, TDP 125 W and price $385/$410;

Core i5-14600K/KF – 14 cores (6+8), frequencies 3.5–5.3+ GHz, 24 MB L3 cache, TDP 125 W and price 295/320 dollars.

To demonstrate the performance gain from the transition to the new generation, Intel, as expected, took the Core i7-14700K because it can demonstrate this gain.
