Processor Intel Core i9 14900KF LGA1700

Intel Core i9 14900KF Processor

The Intel Core i9-14900KF is a 14th Gen desktop processor for the LGA1700 socket with 24 cores (8 Performance-cores and 16 Efficient-cores), 32 threads and a turbo frequency of up to 6.0GHz. It is aimed at gaming PCs and content creation workstations.

This is 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 and PCIe 5.0.

Key features

• Hybrid 24-core architecture - 8 Performance-cores (P) handle heavy tasks while 16 Efficient-cores (E) take care of background work, 32 threads in total. Intel Thread Director helps the operating system place each task on the right core.
• Turbo frequency up to 6.0GHz - Intel Thermal Velocity Boost takes the processor up to 6.0GHz, and Intel Turbo Boost Max 3.0 allows up to 5.8GHz on the fastest cores. The result is high performance in games and in software that relies on a single core.
• 36MB of cache - 36MB of Intel Smart Cache plus 32MB 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.
