CPURaptor Lake Refresh2023LGA 1700Catalog

Intel Core i9-14900K

Peak LGA 1700 performance — and peak heat. A cooler is not optional.

What it is used for

24 cores (8P+16E). Fast at everything if you can feed and cool it. Instability on early BIOS revisions made it famous; current microcode is the one to run.

Good for

  • Maxed creation on an existing Z790 board
  • High-end streaming PCs already built

Not the pick for

  • New builds
  • Quiet or small cases
  • Anyone who does not want to manage power limits

How it scores today

Out of 100, relative to current PCs — not to the year it launched.
