Intel announced full specifications and availability of Intel® Core™ 14th Gen i9-14900KS processors, again reaching the cutting edge of CPU frequency to retain the title as the world’s fastest desktop processor. The processors deliver up to 6.2 gigahertz (GHz) max turbo frequency out of the box, ensuring world-class gaming and creating an experience for desktop enthusiasts who want the most power possible.
The unlocked i9-14900KS processor pushes the Intel Core 14th Gen desktop processor family to its fastest speeds yet – building on last year’s industry-first 6.0 GHz Core i9-13900KS. In addition to record-breaking frequencies, the i9-14900KS boasts 24 cores/32 threads and 36 megabytes (MB) of Intel® Smart Cache for powerful performance in gaming and content creation workloads that desktop enthusiasts expect from Intel’s latest-gen desktop processors.
With the Intel Core 14th Gen 14900KS, gamers can experience up to 15% better performance gen-over-gen thanks to its blazing speeds and Intel’s Application Performance Optimization (APO) feature. Content creators will benefit from the 14900KS’ performance, which can provide up to 73% performance improvement in compute-intensive workflows, such as 3D production multitasking versus competition.
Key features and capabilities of the i9-14900KS include:
