Processor Intel Core i7 14700KF LGA1700

Intel Core i7 14700KF Processor

The Intel Core i7-14700KF is a 14th Gen desktop processor for the LGA1700 socket with 20 cores (8 Performance-cores and 12 Efficient-cores), 28 threads and a turbo frequency of up to 5.6GHz. The high core count suits gaming while streaming, video editing and multitasking.

In the KF version the multiplier is unlocked for overclocking and there are no integrated graphics, so a discrete graphics card is required. The processor supports DDR5 memory up to 5600MT/s or DDR4 up to 3200MT/s, up to 192GB, and PCIe 5.0.

Key features

• Hybrid 20-core architecture - 8 Performance-cores (P) handle heavy tasks while 12 Efficient-cores (E) take care of background work, 28 threads in total. Intel Thread Director helps the operating system place each task on the right core.
• Turbo frequency up to 5.6GHz - Intel Turbo Boost Max 3.0 raises the fastest cores to up to 5.6GHz, and the Performance-cores reach a turbo of up to 5.5GHz. The result is high performance in games and in software that relies on a single core.
• 33MB of cache - 33MB of Intel Smart Cache plus 28MB of L2 cache shorten data access times and improve performance in video processing, code compiling and gaming.
• DDR5 or DDR4 and PCIe 5.0 - The memory controller supports DDR5 up to 5600MT/s or DDR4 up to 3200MT/s, in two channels and up to 192GB, so you can choose a motherboard for either memory type. PCIe 5.0 and 4.0 with up to 20 lanes suit graphics cards and fast NVMe drives.
• KF version without integrated graphics - The F suffix means the processor requires a discrete graphics card. It is a good fit for a gaming PC or workstation that has a dedicated graphics card anyway.
• Unlocked for overclocking - As a K-series processor, the multiplier is unlocked for overclocking on a supporting motherboard. Base power is 125W and maximum turbo power reaches 253W, so a high-quality cooling system is recommended.
