AI Summary

Intel Core i9‑14900KS delivers 24‑core, 6.2 GHz peak power that excels in gaming and content creation. It edges past most Raptor‑Lake refresh models, but stays slightly below the AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D and the Intel Core Ultra 9 285K in raw benchmarks. With a 150 W TDP, it requires solid cooling, yet its price‑premium is justified for professionals seeking top‑end single‑thread performance overall.


Pros

  • Ultra‑fast 6.2 GHz turbo delivers stellar single‑thread gaming performance.
  • 24 cores / 32 threads power demanding video rendering and multitasking.
  • Passmark 64530 and Cinebench multi 42597 place it among the 2025 top‑tier CPUs.
  • Integrated UHD Graphics 770 allows basic display support without a discrete GPU.

Cons

  • Premium $689 price overshadows similar or better performers like the AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D.
  • 150 W TDP necessitates heavy cooling, raising system cost and noise.
  • Passmark lags behind the Intel Core Ultra 9 285K and Ryzen 9 9950X3D by a few points.
  • No hybrid core architecture reduces efficiency compared to newer Ryzen 7000‑series chips.
