14th Gen Intel Core CPUs
Who's planning on getting one, and why?

I doubt anyone is going to buy that CPU as it's no different really. It's literally the exact same as the 13th gen.

For example, the 14900k is the exact same CPU as the 13900k, with slightly higher base and boost clock. That's basically overclocking a 13900k a little. That's not awesome that's lame.

i seen a decent price of 750 for motherboard and i7 gen 14, however the mother board said 1700 lga and from what i seen is talks of 1851 socket, and other places are saying it will work with lga 1700

so i can't honestly say what socket, but the gen 14 just went commerical a few days ago, i think it had a higher thread count and emulated core, but it comes at a higher watt tempature and power draw.

i believe that the Heat of these new processors make them extreme power hogs and you won't be doing your electric bills any favors if you run your computer more then 12 hours a day.

be prepared to have really good cooling/ cold room or year round AC is the best bet, im tempted to get one though, for 750 its not a bad price all in all you could put together a gen 14 i7 for under 1200 dollars with a decent 12gig GPU and on a moderate build.

specs would be something like

750 / motherboard with gen 14 processor,

300 / 12 gig Gpu

100 / 32 gig ram,

200 for case PSU and CPU Heatsink depending on what extra parts you have laying around

under 1500 if you would buy a new operating system of windows 11.

If you are on a older cpu, why not, no huge price hikes and the 14900k is pretty much a cut price 13900ks, though, the memory controller does seem a bit hit or miss off of initial numbers, though that isn't really a issue for 99%.
Don't expect to see the 6GHz boost clock often either, sadly, it's there as long as no other thread is doing anything.

With that said loads will be upgrading their 12th and 13th gen systems so you should be able to find some bargains second hand.

Only people who haven't upgraded in a long time, because 14th gen is just barely an improvement over 13th.

Intels 14th Gen CPUs are for Mobile devices only, on next year. So Intel skips 14th Gen for Desktop devices. Next Desktop CPUs come with Intels 15th Gen in year ~2025.

However, some of current 13th Gen Desktop CPUs get a refresh at end of this year. These are wrongly sold under the term "14th Gen".

...Are you sure about that?

Because it looks like they are making desktop CPUs. Hastily, but they are.

Yes, it is about next gen Lithography Technologies invented in Germany, machines assembled in Netherlands, so chips/motherboards etc made in Taiwan.

So all know-how, all machines which produce motherboards, chips etc, invented in Germany/Netherlands.

These upcoming 14th Gen Desktop CPUs are revamped models of current 13th Gen and are falsely sold as 14th Gen.

The real upcoming 14th Gen CPUs are for Mobile/Laptop devices only, which will be released at end of this year/next year in 2024. No longer Hybrid-motherboards.

And the next real 15th Gen CPUs for Desktops will be released in year ~2025. 15th Gen will so include mobile and desktop versions again, with latest Lithography tech.

And loses to 5800x3d in some titles. Spare a tear for intel.

I'll pass, all they had to do was add more L3 cache, yet the stack still tops out at 36 MB. It's the cache that's making the difference, so if they don't reciprocate, they're shooting themselves in the foot.

Waiting for 15th Gen Meteor Lake CPU next year in 2024 to replace my Intel Core i9-9900k.

I am happy with my Devils Canyon i7.

It barely uses more than 55% (i use V-sync at all games) and i still didn't overclock it because there was no need, as of 2023.

I feel like blessed. :denver:

Glad you are happy with your old chip, alas it doesn't give the best experience these days in anything remotely modern, I am guessing that us why you only play very old games and I suspect if you could manage your money at all you woukd upgrade in a heartbeat.

From what i hear the 14th gen are too power hungry as well. if you want high electric bills go ahead.
