Intel is set to release the Core i9-14900KS processor on March 14, according to reports from VideoCardz.
The Core i9-14900KS is expected to hit a boost clock of 6.2 GHz
The Core i9-14900KS joins the lineup alongside its predecessors, the Core i9-12900KS and Core i9-13900KS, which were released on April 5, 2022, and January 12, 2023, respectively. Unlike its predecessors, the i9-14900KS reportedly boasts a higher clock speed of up to 6.2 GHz (instead of 6.0 GHz) on two cores, which was previously spotted in a leak in late February along with Lunar Lake Laptop CPUs. The Core i9-14900KS is also expected to reach up to 5.9 GHz on all P cores and 4.5 GHz on the E cores.
One notable aspect of the Intel Core i9-14900KS is its pricing, which is reported to be around $740, approximately 30% higher than the current flagship i9-14900K. Despite the higher price tag, the i9-14900KS promises significant performance improvements, making it an attractive option for enthusiasts and power users.
In terms of specifications, the i9-14900KS is based on the Raptor Lake Refresh architecture and features 8 performance cores (P) and 16 efficient cores (E), resulting in a total of 24 cores and 32 threads. It comes equipped with 36MB of L3 cache and 32MB of L2 cache, providing ample memory for demanding tasks and multitasking scenarios. Additionally, the maximum thermal design power (TDP) has likely been bumped up from the i9-14900K’s 125W to 150W for the upcoming i9-14900KS.
Notably, this processor will be the final addition to Intel’s LGA-1700 platform and marks the end of an era with the last CPU to utilize the old naming convention for Desktop CPUs. Going forward, it will be replaced by the LGA-1851 socket starting with the 15th-generation Arrow Lake CPUs by the end of this year.
