INTEL Core i9 14900K 14th Generation Processor ( 6.2 GHz / 24 Cores / 32 Threads )

The Intel Core i9-14900K is a flagship 14th Generation desktop processor built on Intel’s hybrid architecture, combining 8 Performance-cores and 16 Efficient-cores for a total of 24 cores and 32 threads. This unlocked processor fits the FCLGA1700 socket, making it compatible with Intel 600- and 700-series motherboards, and it is fully unlocked for overclocking via Intel’s Extreme Tuning Utility. For single-threaded workloads the P-cores reach a maximum turbo frequency of 5.6 GHz, while Intel Thermal Velocity Boost can push the peak all-core ceiling to 6 GHz under favourable thermal conditions. Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 identifies the two fastest cores and can direct priority threads to them at up to 5.8 GHz. The E-cores sustain a max turbo of 4.4 GHz, ensuring background tasks stay responsive without taxing the P-cores. Intel Thread Director works alongside Windows scheduling to place threads on the right core type automatically, reducing latency in mixed workloads such as streaming while gaming or rendering while compiling. A 36 MB Intel Smart Cache and 32 MB total L2 cache keep frequently accessed data close to the execution units, while a processor base power of 125 W and a maximum turbo power of 253 W give the chip headroom for sustained burst performance. Memory support spans DDR4 at up to 3200 MT/s and DDR5 at up to 5600 MT/s across two channels, with a maximum addressable capacity of 192 GB and peak bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. ECC memory is supported. The integrated Intel UHD Graphics 770 provides 32 Execution Units, a base clock of 300 MHz, and a maximum dynamic frequency of 1.65 GHz, with outputs for up to four simultaneous displays via HDMI 2.1 (4K/60 Hz), DisplayPort 1.4a (8K/60 Hz), and eDP 1.4b. PCIe 5.0 and PCIe 4.0 lanes (up to 20 total) deliver high-bandwidth connectivity for the latest discrete GPUs and NVMe SSDs. Additional features include Intel Deep Learning Boost, Gaussian & Neural Accelerator 3.0, AES-NI hardware encryption, VT-x and VT-d virtualisation, and Intel Boot Guard for platform security. The processor carries Intel’s standard 3-year limited warranty.
