Core i9-14900K Spec and Price in Italy

LGA170024 cores / 32 threads

Released October 17, 2023 ·

Intel's 14th Gen flagship: twenty-four cores split eight Performance and sixteen Efficient reach a 6.0GHz boost from a 3.2GHz P-core base, with 36MB of L3 cache backing them. The same 253W maximum turbo power as the 14700K below it applies once every core is loaded, so cooling needs scale with the extra silicon rather than clock speed. Intel UHD Graphics 770 covers a fallback display, and the $599 boxed price sits at the top of the 14th Gen desktop stack.

Tied 1st of 65 models in the CPU catalog on Boost clock — 2 models share this figure. Tied 24th of 65 models in the CPU catalog on L3 cache — 6 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 1 source(s), reviewed September 13, 2026. A source is counted only where it names this model exactly. How we track prices

Commonly praised

  • Great for content creators, boosting to 6GHz out of the box, with wide motherboard support.

Commonly criticised

  • Requires massive power and a large liquid cooler, for only a small performance jump.
