Intel Core I5-14600K Raptor Lake 14 Core LGA 1700 Desktop Processor
- The Intel Core i5-14600K is a desktop processor with 14 cores, launched in October 2023, at an MSRP of $319. It is part of the Core i5 lineup, using the Raptor Lake Refresh architecture with Socket 1700.
- Intel Hyper-Threading technology is available and effetely doubles the core-count of the P-Cores, to a total of 20 threads. Core i5-14600K has 24 MB of L3 cache and operates at 3.5 GHz by default, but can boost up to 5.3 GHz, depending on the workload. Intel is making the Core i5-14600K on a 10 nm production node, the transistor count is unknown. You may freely adjust the unlocked multiplier on Core i5-14600K, which simplifies overclocking greatly, as you can easily dial in any overclocking frequency.
- With a TDP of 125 W, the Core i5-14600K consumes a lot of power, so good cooling is definitely needed. Intel’s processor supports DDR4 and DDR5 memory with a dual-channel interface. ECC memory is supported, too, which is an important capability for mission-critical systems, to avoid data corruption. For communication with other components in the machine, Core i5-14600K uses a PCI-Express Gen 5 connection.
- This processor features the UHD Graphics 770 integrated graphics solution.
- Hardware virtualization is available on the Core i5-14600K, which greatly improves virtual machine performance. Additionally, IOMMU virtualization (PCI passthrough) is supported, so that guest virtual machines may directly use host hardware. Programs using Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX) can run on this processor, boosting performance for calculation-heavy applications. Besides AVX, Intel is including the newer AVX2 standard, too, but not AVX-512.
