Core i5-14600KF

Intel · Core i5 · 2023 · LGA1700

Overview

The Intel Core i5-14600KF is a desktop processor with 14 cores (6 Performance-cores and 8 Efficiency-cores), released in 2023 at an MSRP of $275. It is part of the Core i5 lineup, using the 14th Gen platform, and fits the LGA1700 socket. Internally, it is built on the "Raptor Lake Refresh" architecture. Only the 6 P-cores support Hyper-Threading, while the 8 E-cores handle a single thread each, together yielding 20 threads: the P-cores tackle latency-sensitive and lightly-threaded work, while the E-cores take on background and highly parallel tasks. The Core i5-14600KF has a base clock of 3.5 GHz and can boost up to 5.3 GHz depending on workload and thermal headroom. Intel manufactures the "Raptor Lake Refresh" silicon on a Intel 7 process node. The multiplier is unlocked, making overclocking straightforward. This processor supports DDR4/DDR5 memory. With a TDP of 125W, the Core i5-14600KF sits in a typical power envelope for a modern desktop CPU. This processor has no integrated graphics — a discrete GPU is required. The cache hierarchy consists of 80KB/core of L1, 20MB of L2, and 24MB of L3 cache.

Drops integrated graphics from the 14600K's silicon, a common choice for gaming builds where a discrete GPU makes the onboard UHD 770 redundant.
