Core™ i9-14900KF New Gaming Desktop Processor 24 cores (8 P-cores + 16 E-cores) - Unlocked

Want to get 240 FPS on fortnite stable this processor will do that for you being fortnite is a processor based game if you have just a decent graphics card and decent Ram this processor will give you 240 FPS stable at end game no problems at all that's without even overclocking it this processor is a beast and absolute Beast. Use a 240 mm AIO and you won't have heating issues it'll run cool even overclocked you don't even need a 360 mm, 240s just fine. Stability overclocked is Rock Solid I haven't had any issues whatsoever it's just a stable running system. The value for your dollar here is superb you're getting an incredibly high performance gaming processor that overclocked provides incredible performance without insane Heat you literally can't ask for a better gaming processor for the money 240 FPS locked at end game on fortnite competitive is no problem it'll do that without overclocking straight out the box it will give you that level of performance and when you want a really ramp up the performance get into overclocking and this processor will blow your mind. Dollar for dollar this is the best processor you can buy for processor based games you get tremendous performance for a very very good price and again with heat levels that don't require you to spend $300 on a AIO. A $60 decent quality 240 mm AIO will keep your temps perfectly stable and cool even overclocked to the max just make sure you have a good quality power supply that's giving a nice stable voltage and current supply and this processor will give you all the performance you need straight out the package and if you overclock it it'll give you more performance than you need. Intel absolutely hit a grand slam with this processor I can't speak about it's performance to price highly enough.

I knew going in that this CPU has a reputation for high temperatures, and that there was a famous bug (which was fixed) that damaged or destroyed some 13th and 14th generation processors. Neither of those things has been a problem for me. I updated my motherboard with the latest bios before installing the CPU, that way there was no risk of being affected by the bug. I also went water cooling which has kept my CPU at about 35c under normal use, and 70-80c under heavy load. Performance wise, this thing is a beast, but it's somewhat specialized. It's truly exceptional at multitasking, but "just" excellent at gaming. This makes sense: it has 24 cores, but it doesn't have the cache of something like a 7800x3d (which only has 8 cores). At anything multitasking, this thing is unreal. I sometimes run really intensive programs and then forget that they're running in the background because you can't even tell because the foreground applications are still running at full speed. If what you do is heavily based around multitasking, then there's probably not a better chip that money can buy, but that's a very specialized need. I bought it because I wanted the 24 cores (there's just something cool about having 24 cores) and because my main use case is productivity rather than games, but that's a pretty specialized need. In gaming, this thing actually also excels, but just looking at the benchmarks, it can't quite keep up with something like the 7800x3d. So if your use case is entirely or mainly gaming, you should get the 7800x3d instead. Still, I don't want to downplay this thing's gaming performance, because it does have really excellent gaming performance. It just can't compare to the 7800x3d. So if you use your computer mainly for gaming then this processor might not make sense for you, even though it does do really well in games. During normal household type use (web browsing), this thing is only a bit faster than any old CPU, so again if you mainly game, you're unlikely to notice the speed difference outside of games if you go with a 7800x3d. On the other hand, if what you're doing is mostly heavy productivity, and especially if it involves multitasking and multithreading, then this thing is going to kill the 7800x3d. This CPU normally runs in the 5-6ghz range. It downclocks to 1ghz when not in heavy use, but its regular state when you're actively using it is 5-6ghz, which is frankly pretty impressive. It's not joking about that 6ghz stuff. Sure, you might not hit exactly 6ghz that often, but you will run at 5.6ghz+ all the time. CPU cooling and power usage requirements are somewhat exaggerated. I use AIO, and I've never seen it go above 70-80c. Granted, I've seen many benchmarks where it goes above that, but for me personally, 99% of the time my CPU idles at 35c, with spikes up to maybe 50c under regular load. I have to be doing something intensive to get it up into the 70-80 range. I am using AIO, so you might experience something different if you use an air cooler. I haven't encountered any stability issues at all with this chip. Just the opposite, it seems to work great. I even waited to post this review to see if any issues cropped up, but nothing has. There are basically no major downsides to this CPU at this point. The nicest thing about this chip is actually something small: everything is just a bit faster. Everything. Even though each small action might only be a bit faster, the fact that they're all faster adds up to a weirdly much smoother and nicer experience across everything I do. Even using webpages or typing out text is just a little snappier, and it just feels nice every time. The little things matter, they can add up. Sure, it's not mindblowing, but the fact that simple things like moving around a window or scrolling a webpage is just a little snappier makes everything I do on my computer nicer. This is another place where I think this CPU is going to have an advantage over the 7800x3d: I think it's the 24 cores that are having an impact here. So it really comes down to this: are you going to use 24 cores? Do you want 24 cores? Or, are you mainly going to play video games? If you're going to play video games, get the 7800x3d. If 24 cores and 6ghz sounds cool to you, then get this.

No issues so far. Probably over kill in my situation but at least it should be my last upgrade.

Runs amazing for gaming / workstation use if you know how to tune your system properly and pair it with good fast ram. If all you do is game and dont know how to tune just buy 9800x3d.

Espero ayudar. Realmente intel tiene un serio problema de estabilidad con estos procesadores GEN 13th Y 14th, me parece increíble que cuando cambie de pestaña al navegar la temperatura del procesar suba a los 70 grados, y posteriormente decienda a 50, pero ojo que solo estoy cambiando de pestaña... ni la refrigeración liquida puede con este procesador. No lo recomiendo... ahora estamos en otoño por la noche a 13 grados, sin embargo yo estoy en la habitación con el aire acondicionado porque esto no veas lo que consume de energía para mantener la habitación super caliente.

i7 14700Fからのアップグレードで購入、RTX 5080と共に使用。 Bve trainsim 京急線 描画距離1200m(←南エア急/エア快・快特は2000mm)において60fps貼り付きでプレイできます。設置ストラクチャーの関係上一部55fpsまで下がる場面がありますが、そこまで気にする程ではありません。本当は全ダイヤに置いて2000m/60fpsを求めてきましたが、まあこんなものだと納得しました。 交換直後はシネベンチR23でマルチスコアが20688と以前使用していたi7 14700Fよりも低い数値が出ましたが、 ①クーラーを240mm水冷に変更 ②BIOSアップデート ③BIOS CPU設定 以上の3点を実行することでマルチスコア 34386と、それなりの数値を出してくれました。i9は発熱が激しいので、CPU性能を活かしきるには水冷クーラーが必須のようです。上記3点を実行するだけで性能が変化しますので、CPUをi9に変えてみたけどなんか性能が低い... と思った方は是非試してみてください。
