Intel Core i9-14900KS 36M Cache Up to 6.20GHz 24 Core 32 Threads Processor

The Intel BX8071514900KS is a desktop processor designed for builders who refuse to compromise on speed or workload capacity. With 24 cores arranged as eight performance cores and 16 efficient cores, it balances peak frequency with background efficiency so games, creative suites, and browser tabs can run side by side without slowdowns. A maximum turbo frequency of 6.2 GHz, reached through Thermal Velocity Boost on the performance cores, lets demanding titles or render passes finish faster and keeps frame rates consistently high.

This processor pairs seamlessly with up to 192 GB of DDR5 memory, while retaining support for DDR4 if you are carrying forward existing components. PCIe 5.0 lanes open the door to the fastest graphics cards and storage drives available today, and additional PCIe 4.0 lanes give flexibility for capture cards, network adapters, or high-bandwidth peripherals.

Integrated Intel UHD 770 graphics support up to four displays, which is handy when a discrete GPU is temporarily unavailable or when you are setting up a troubleshooting bench. Built-in AI acceleration helps creative applications that tap into Intel Deep Learning Boost, giving editors and designers another performance edge without extra hardware.

The processor fits LGA 1700 motherboards and carries a 150 W base power rating that can rise to 253 W under sustained turbo loads, so a capable cooling solution is required. Whether you are building an enthusiast gaming rig, a streaming and editing station, or a workstation for intensive modeling work, this CPU provides the headroom and versatility to match.
