While Intel’s 14th Gen desktop CPUs have not hit the market yet, a recent leak has provided us with detailed specifications of these upcoming chips. These processors will be based on the ‘Raptor Lake S Refresh‘ architecture. Now, let’s dive into the comprehensive specifications of the Intel 14th Gen desktop CPU lineup.
Leaked Specifications for Intel’s 14th Gen Desktop CPU Lineup
A significant leak has surfaced, offering detailed insights into the specifications of Intel’s highly anticipated 14th-gen desktop processor lineup. The leak, originally shared by hardware enthusiast YuuKi_AnS on X (formerly Twitter), has since been removed. However, once information finds its way onto the internet, it tends to linger.
This leak has unveiled the complete roster of Intel’s forthcoming 14th-gen desktop CPUs, leaving no stone unturned. From the budget-friendly Core i3-14100 to the range-topping Core i9-14900K, we now have access to the specifications for the entire lineup. Additionally, there is speculation that the pricing of these new desktop Intel chips may see an increase, as indicated by this leak.
The leaked information doesn’t show significant improvements in total core counts for these upcoming processors. Additionally, the leak only provides details on base clock speeds. However, there is an interesting exception with the i7-14700K. According to this leak, the i7 desktop processor is reported to feature 8 performance cores and 12 efficiency cores.
This means that the new i7-14700K, as well as its KF, non-K, and T variants, will see an increase in core count. Compared to the previous i7-13700K/KF CPU, as indicated by this leak, the new processor will have an additional four E-cores, raising the core count from 16 to 20 on the upcoming Core i7 desktop processor.
The leak also mentions the introduction of a new Intel 300 and 3005 processor. These processors are expected to replace the entry-level Pentium Gold and Celeron CPUs that Intel has previously offered. It’s possible that the era of Pentium and Celeron branding is coming to an end.
Intel seems to be targeting the entry-level CPU market with these budget-friendly options. However, it’s important to note that this leaked data comes from an unofficial source, and Intel has not yet officially confirmed the specifications for these processors.
There is also a potential rebranding in the works for future Intel processors, where they may remove the ‘i‘ from Intel Core CPU branding. The leaked specs do not reflect this name change, so Intel could be planning to update the processor model names to align with the new branding. If this change occurs, the rumored Core i9-14900K processor could be denoted as Intel Core Ultra 9 14900K.
We’ll have to wait and see what Intel has in store for its 14th Gen CPUs.
