Core™ i7-14700KF New Gaming Desktop Processor 20 cores (8 P-cores + 12 E-cores) - Unlocked

Runs hot so get a good cpu cooler. Big value got this a year ago and is still running same as new. Fast and stable when overclocked.

0x12F (12F in hardware info) ^See that code? Make sure your Motherboard BIOS has that microcode for your CPU. It's the microcode that has the Vmin SHIFT instability fix. You NEED the BIOS version that has that microcode instruction. If not, your CPU will not last long. Also, be VERY CAREFUL buying any used 13th/14th Gen Intel CPU. As it's not readily apparent if the CPU sold to you has degraded. Keep ALL receipts. On to the product itself; This thing is a productivity monster. Cooling it can be a bit of a problem, but even without overclocking this CPU performs spectacularly right out of the box. I recommend this CPU over the rest of 14th gen intel to be honest with you. i9 runs too hot and generally not worth it. This cpu hits the sweetspot for performance and cooling. I recommend a good tower cooler like Noctua or Thermalright to cool this CPU properly. Anything under that will just not work well enough. On the AIO side, a 240mm can work, but a 360mm is recommended. I use this for Video Rendering and Gaming, and it crushes it on both of those tasks.

This CPU is great. I always go with Intel KF CPUs for gaming, and this one was the right price at the right time. Easy install. Requires a decent heatsink but no need to go overboard. Runs smooth in my experience. In case you don't know: (K) overclocking. (F) Does not provide onboard display. Basically: get a GPU.

Amazing performance. Faster than the new 265k and better multi tasking than a 9700x3d thanks to the more cores!

Great Processor.

Performed as expected, easy install. Lightning fast, cooling as expected. Stable, no issues.

Flawless brand new inbox works perfectly at optimal performance quite enjoy the quality and the quick delivery highly recommend. It’s basically I-9.

I got the 14700kf in Oct 2024 for $329. While I did want the AMD 9800x3d, it wasn't attainable. If it was available it was short lived and at a high $600+ price. I got a newer chip that was I'm assuming manufactured July of this year(2024). I could tell by reading the on the box code and figuring it out. So I dodged a degrading chip. I also have an extra 2 years warranty by Intel, a total of 5 years. That's really good!!!. Also, i got the latest and final microcode by intel before I even popped the chip into my MSI z790 board. So I'm good 👍. I bought a 360mm AIO by a reputable company in a big case with plenty of airflow. Temps stay at VERY good levels. 29° Celsius at idle and about 65c average while gaming Battlefield 2042 in ultra settings with an Rtx4080-Super. I'm using Gskill 6000mhz 30cl ram. Tighter timings with ddr5 rather than 6400 with looser timings for gaming. My 2024 cinebench scores are great and even higher than what others have with multicore. My single core score was just few points lower than others, but that might be because the ram speed isn't being tested with 7200mhz ram, i really don't know... But the only real gripe I have is Intel needs to figure out how to implement 3d CACHE into their chips to jump ahead of AMD again in gaming. They're years behind TSMC/AMD. So the die needs to get lower so the power consumption gets lower will too. If they can get that 3D cache on their chips, I'll 5star them all day and praise them. 👏

Ottimo processore, la velocità è molto simile ad una 12 generazione overcloccata, ma con stabilità. Non surriscalda grazie ad una buona pasta termica ma soprattutto agli aggiornamenti del BIOS d'obbligo. Consiglio !

Perfect, fast delivery. Works first time with no issues.

bios入れていれば問題なく動いているみたいです 今思えばコスパ最高だった

Ce processeur est une vraie bête pour le gaming et le montage vidéo. Les 20 cœurs (8 P + 12 E) permettent de gérer plusieurs tâches lourdes sans aucun souci, et le boost à 5,6 GHz se sent clairement sur les logiciels exigeants. Seul petit bémol : il chauffe assez vite, donc un bon refroidissement est indispensable. Sinon, niveau puissance, rien à redire, c’est top !

Awesome. Be sure to update bios and use a good cooler for reliability. I paired it with the NH-U12A and MSI PRO Z790-A MAX. A big step up from my older I7-3770k.
