IntelCore™ i9-14900KF Desktop Processor 24 cores (8 P-cores + 16 E-cores) up to 6.0 GHz

Given the issues that first happened with Intel 13k and 14k with the newer motherboard updates finally being solved this is a great piece of kit to add to your pc

Buy this cpu and wont have to upgrade for the next 10 years, Very Powerful and clocked to 6ghz. :)

the most rubish cpu i buy ever. witth noctua nh-u12a in ets2 is go to 90 degrees? amd ddr4 is the best.

Very fast but runs hot. I underclocked mine and it brought the temperatures down and now runs very well.

Was cautious buying this as I knew I could only fit a 240mm AIO in the PC this went into. I have found that the CPU idles around 38° and under benchmarks and very “cpu-heavy” games, it averages around 70°. It does drop into the higher 60s sometimes, and higher 70s. I do have good airflow through the case though.

OK hands down this is the fastest single core CPU on the market. It makes it awesome for games, and with 32 logical CPUs it's also pretty good in its parallelisation.However it's not without issues. The first one had to go back because it had a memory controller issue; effectively the silicon on the bit of the chip which controls the memory was a bit poorly "doped". Seems that it slipped through the Quality Control and made it through to retail. Intel were great in helping out and got the retailer to replace. But something that shouldn't have happened in the first place.The next chip was going for 14 months. And then something "popped". It just shut down whilst compiling shaders for a game (FarCry 5), the first time it was ran. Now it won't overclock past 6.1GHz. This is really, really odd - but turns out I'm in a community of many who've had similar issues.So I think overall it's superlatively fast; but maybe this comes at the price of being less reliable.

Received works perfectly and was a good price

Brilliant product
