The Intel Core i9-14900K is one of the fastest CPUs you can buy. However, this also includes its predecessor. It is a pity that Intel has not installed more cores to achieve a clear performance gap.
The differences compared to the predecessors 13900K and Core 13600K are only minor, the new CPUs Core i9-14900K and Core i5-14600K are only slightly faster. Therefore: If you already have a PC with an older Raptor Lake CPU, you can safely keep it, it's not worth switching. For all customers who are considering buying a new PC or want to replace an even older CPU in an existing computer, the new refresh...
The Intel Core i9-14900K impresses and disappoints in equal measure. In the test, the CPU proves to be a strong competitor to AMD's top processors and doesn't make any mistakes - apart from the increased power consumption. In addition to the CPU benchmarks, the integrated graphics unit also achieves reasonable results...
