Core i7-14700K Spec and Price in France

LGA170020 cores / 28 threads

Released October 17, 2023 ·

Intel's 14th Gen desktop value pick: twenty cores split eight Performance and twelve Efficient, four more E-cores than the prior generation for a stated 25% core-count gain. The extra silicon mostly helps multi-threaded and creator workloads rather than gaming, where the 5.6 GHz boost clock and 33MB of L3 cache do the heavy lifting. A 253W maximum turbo power under an all-core load is the real cost of chasing that headroom — plan cooling for it.

Tied 10th of 65 models in the CPU catalog on Boost clock — 7 models share this figure. Tied 30th of 65 models in the CPU catalog on L3 cache — 2 models share this figure.

Guides for this category

How to choose a desktop CPUA chip's socket decides what it can go into; cores, cache and TDP decide what you actually get once it's installed.How many CPU cores you actually needWhy more cores is not more speed, how gaming and productivity ask for cores differently, and why a core count alone never ranks two chips.When a CPU price is actually goodWhy a chip's list price and discount percentage tell you little, what a processor's price does over its life, and how to read its tracked history.Laptop CPU vs desktop CPUA mobile chip with the same core count is not the same processor — what the power envelope changes, and why these parts carry no price.

What owners and reviewers say

Summarised from 2 source(s), reviewed September 13, 2026. A source is counted only where it names this model exactly. How we track prices

Commonly praised

  • Four additional efficiency cores over the previous model, at a reasonable price, with gaming performance very close to the flagship.
  • Faster than its direct rival in applications, with PCI-Express 5.0, an unlocked multiplier and both DDR4 and DDR5 support.
  • Owners upgrading from much older chips report a massive performance jump for both gaming and productivity.
  • It is widely seen as the value pick over the i9, offering most of the performance for much less.
  • With a good AIO it is reported to idle cool and stay controlled during normal gaming.

Commonly criticised

  • Very high power usage and demanding cooling needs at high temperatures, for only minor gains over the previous generation.
  • The highest boost is only reached on two cores, and there is no AVX-512 or AI acceleration support.
  • It is power-hungry and runs hot, and owners say a 280mm to 360mm AIO is needed for full loads.
  • Some owners report instability and crashes in games, often tied to motherboard power settings.
  • A few say the gain over the previous generation is modest.
