Intel’s 14th gen CPUs are here and… well… they’re pretty much just the 13th gen chips with a new name. Seriously. It’s the same architecture, it’s Raptor Lake-S, it’s the same process node, Intel 7, and with this 14600K in particular there is very little different. It still has 14 total cores, 6 P and 8 E cores, it still has 24MB of total cache, it still boosts to a maximum of 5.3GHz, it still has a max turbo power of 181 watts. The only spec sheet difference I can find is that the E cores can now boost to 4GHz instead of 3.9GHz. GAME CHANGING, I KNOW! There really isn’t much new - there’s a few bits like a new “AI assistant” built into their extreme tuning utility software, and “Application Optimisation” or APO which basically does some under-the-hood tweaks based on the game’s executable name, but realistically both of those things could work on older chips, but Intel obviously wants to keep them for the new stuff to make it worth you buying the newer chip.

![Intel i5 14600k Review for Creative Professionals: Video, Photo & 3D [13600k vs 14600k]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/dBBGPYjonEk/mqdefault.jpg)
Still on the 12600k here and it's still very good for gaming.
of course :D 2 generations is nothing
It was a good jump to Alder Lake then we have the usual stagnation from Intel.
At £248 on release day and they run easy at 5ghz they were a very good buy.
Just got it today bro. Ignore the hype. It's still a beast

All they are doing is increase power draw by increasing frequency...
Exactly though they added E-cores too, but some of the 13th gen chips are actually Alder Lake
Just bought the 13600k last week faster than the 12900k. Great chip and price
13600K has been the most interesting of the 1700 socket, in my eyes. I don't have one; I decided to hold onto AM4 a while longer, but I was very close to buying it. The price and performance are really, really compelling.
Congrats on the new CPU. I hope you get a lot of good use out of it! :-)
Congratz, create a word file, write a big 1 on a A4 paper, print it out and put it on ur wall. So you can remember the FPS difference with this crushial decision that took u weeks of planing.
@@nemiw4429 A CPU upgrade is mostly for other reasons, like less latency, workload, minimum fps, ...
I also bought the 13600K about a month ago and I'm really enjoying it. I undervolted it and set it to 5.5Ghz works like a charm and barely goes into 60+ degrees on full load.
@@jalub014 why undervolt it?
I love your presentation. Excellent, by far one of my favourite CZcamsrs. Very surprised Intel presented this like a generation uptick; it's not, haha. Or perhaps I shouldn't be surprised. All these companies do extremely silly things sometimes.
switched to the 12600k from a 3900xt honestly in love with these i5 chips they are amazing for the price and performance!
Plus the 12600 is literally 179. You cannot beat that at all.
I've been on a 2600k since 2011. I'm thinking of upgrading to a 12600k/motherboard/ddr5 32gb for 330 dollars. That will give me 2x single core and 4x multicore performance and would hold me out till Nova Lake.
I have been using the 12600k since launch. It is a fantastic experience and the most impressive chip I have ever bought. You wont be disappointed. An added bonus is how little power it uses. I have been building systems since the 90's.
@@rdoc Yeah I want to do that cheap and amazing bang for buck upgrade but all my money is tied up right now and I don't have a job or any other income. All I can afford this Christmas is probably a new hard drive.
@@rdocI ditto this! I've been building and upgrading since a pentium 90mhz in the 90's 12th I5 was a big and noticable leap
I'm upgrading right now from a 2500K to a 12600K haha. The parts are still in the mail though. I cheaped out a bit on the CPU and I'm going to upgrade to a 14th gen i7 or something later to make this build last many years.
@@butchdeadlift7551 14th gen from 12th is not a real upgrade. 15th gen would be noticeable and 17th gen would be huge pretty much like your 2500 to 12600 upgrade. 12th to 13th is like 20 percent jump... 13th to 14th is 5 percent.... 14th to 15th should be 40 percent..... 15th to 16th should be 20 percent.... 16th to 17th probably 50-60 percent. so 12th gen to 14th is like 25 percent faster.... 12th to 17th(2026) is 400-500 percent faster. that upgrade you just made should be 600 percent jump. your next CPU should be 17600k or 17700k which ever is better bang for buck. 17700k is supposed to have 144mb L2.
Would there be a way to tell, if a company underclocked a chip upon introduction, then increased the clock the following year? Just curious.
The 14600K is now cheaper than the 13600K since no one is buying it.
Lol
This is a lie. You're a liar.
same here in my country but my dilemma is the 14th gen runs hotter?
Im building my daughter a pc with my old 12400f and 4060 Ventus. I’m upgrading my GPU to a 4070 Super and was going to upgrade my CPU to a 12600k but it looks like there’s enough of a jump in performance if I upgrade to the 14th gen. I’ve only been into PC’s since November, so hopefully I’m not messing anything up with this choice
I mean if your are going to play games in 1080 there would be a significant difference but in 1440 not so much .
Really appreciate this, I've a 12600k and was holding out to see the 14600k, but now the 13600k is really looking good considering the price point
There is no point in upgrading CPUs by 1-4 generations unless you are getting the higher tiers (i5 to i7).
@@Allblaster Sad but true. There should be. Two "gens" should be a big enough even i5 to i5 but these are NOT two generations apart.
@@fluphybunny930 The last time it was the case was for Ryzen 1st and 3rd gen. For intel only when they raised the thread count of i5s from 6 to 12 with the 10th gen.
@@Allblaster yeah well, for people like me with a 12600K and DDR4 I would like to get the most out of my DDR4 system and thus possibly upgrading to either the 13600k or 14600k as it's only a swap which wouldn't cost much.
@@TheBlackHandEliteseems like pretty useless upgrade to me
Me who just bought a 12600k thinking there wasn’t much of a difference between 12th and 13th gen chips 🫠
idk which to get to pair with a 3060ti but i want to be able to upgrade to a 12gb card like a 4070ti without upgrading cpu. leaning toward 12600k just cause it draws a lot less power for a little less preformance, but i guess you ould achieve the same with 13600k since its unlocked?
@@baloneyslice247 if you have the monkey, definitely take advantage of the 13600k, or even go for an i7 12700k I seen one for under $200 the other day
There's absolutely no difference in some cases the 13th gen model IS an Alder Lake chip.
After the Sapphire Rapids/Sapphire Rapids W launch I wasn't expecting that much from this one but it's honestly worse than I expected. If there had been meaningful power reduction (wishful thinking on that one I know) or memory overclocking or *something*, but basically this is actually more of the same. Technically Intel didn't lie since these are a tiny bit faster but when that tiny bit might as well be margin of error, well... Maybe this will drop 13th gen prices which I guess is the silver lining for consumers. Anyway, TR7000 launch tomorrow, yay!
I had hopes power consumption would go down so an upgrade from i5 would not entail a new big and costly cooler. Apparently not. I have the 12600k with single tower cooler. All i-7's and i-9's LGA1700 cpu's require big beefy dual tower coolers if not liquid.
1:18 1:20 I have my 12600k overclocked to 5.3 all core and efficiency at 4 barely goes over 45c 😂 1.36000 volts. The ram i slightly increased voltage to create more stability. Temps are so good and stable
The 14700k is the one with extra e cores so would have a little more uplift in multi threading.
@unimpressively_charmingwhat's the best budget CPU for RTX3080? i play game's on 1080p res... no 1440p or 4k
It’s Black Friday in the states. Grabbed a 12600KF for $140. Score!
enjoy your hot oven with low fps :)
@@NeverSettleForMediocritylol stop complaining idiot, AMD fan boy, 12600k is an amazing price to performance cpu 😂🤡🤡🤡🤡
Got it about 2 months ago.. ever since then Im so happy... upgraded from i5 8500 lol..
@@NeverSettleForMediocrity wtf are you talking about? I5 12th gen is pretty cold
@@NeverSettleForMediocrity My 12600k running a mild overclock boosts to 5.1 ghz and has never gone above 75c. I don't know what you are talking about here??
Why there is no 4k test ??
Think I’ll keep my 12600k and eventually grab a 14900k as a drop in upgrade when prices drop then move from 1080p to 1440p to balance the cpu and gpu and boom I get few more years out of the build lol 😂
The jump from the 12600k to 13600k is actually huge, the 13600k is faster in gaming even to a overclocked i9 12th gen
12600k OC to 13600k turbo makes the generational improvement irrelevant
This generation should be called Kaby-Raptor Lake. I'm getting flashbacks of the marginal gains from 7th-gen Kaby Lake back in 2016, or whenever that was. :-P This is really disappointing, even underperforming my pretty low expectations. I was guessing +5% to 8%; not -5 to +5. Oof.
I do like how simple my recommendation to friends has become (for gaming.) I just tell them: Any CPU from the 2020s that ends in at least "600".
yes. I had hopes power consumption would go down so an upgrade from i5 would not entail a new big and costly cooler. Apparently not. I have the 12600k with s single tower cooler. All i-7's and i-9's LGA1700 cpu's require big beefy dual tower coolers if not liquid.
I'm using and old pc with i5-3470, but I'm upgrading my pc. It is worth 14600k? Or getting the 13600k would be enough? Right now both are $6 apart, so I was thinking in getting the 14600k.
you could get the 13600k its pretty much the same thing as the 14600k
for 6 dollars i would pick up the 14th gen, higher resell value probaly because its never. and tbh 6 dollars aint much xD
14600 is your answer
If you can't afford the $6 difference you shouldn't be getting either of these
Take an eye on power consuption and temperatures. That s the real differences.
The 14600K has 200 MHz faster P-core boost speeds over the 13600K, along with the 100 Mhz higher E-core boost speeds you mentioned.
12600 k 6700xt getting 200 fps average and 120 ish for 1 percent lows.
GPU is 100 percent and CPU is max 50 percent until.
Will getting a better CPU increase frames more than a GPU?
Which CPU? Easy, the 7800X3D. The AM5 socket will also be futureproof until 2026. The 1700 will not be, given Intels history of sockets. Also, you can still install Windows 10 on new AMD Processors. At least thats what i was told.
Good answer. It's bizarre to compare Alder with the refreshes as for most it'll make little difference.
I'm looking at upgrading my kids old pc which has some decent hardware now that she can keep. And I'm going with the 12600k it's the best value bang for the buck considering if you look you can get it for around $160 compared to the others that's a significant price difference.
Plus now she has a decent upgrade path to the 14700k which I have on my main machine now. So when I upgrade she has another jump. and my other kid can still use the 12600k with a 3080ti which I had a second machine that has 3080ti and my main machine which I'm waiting for the new gen cards to come on sale later this year is rumors are true.
Basically I'll have the ability for both of them two have decent PC's for a few years from my own upgrades of mine. Think it's a win win Considering it's only going to cost me $400 now to upgrade her to 1700 platform that's all my hand me down parts won't go to eWaste. So when I end upgrading again in the future The youngest will still have a great 1080/1440 system that I can if need to upgrade the GPU.
i7 13 gen vs i5 13600k who is better for gaming low input lag
13600k and 14600k are such awesome cpus!
I am about to buy a new computer and honestly I might go for the 13600k instead of the 14600k just because that gives me plenty more choices of motherboards.
what do you mean? the 14 gen chips running on the same chipsets like 12 and 13th gen Cpu's. the 14600k is running perfectly on every z690 or lower end socket 1700 boards. you mby have to upgrade the bios, that's all.

AMD now in few months would not have any competition vs new Zen5 cpus and that means higher prices of their cpu-s again just like with Zen3 released

What about 13500 for budget .worth it?
beast of a cpu
13600k and 14600k are the exact same price at the moment so I might as well just go with the newer one lmao
from cex the 14600k was only 30 quid more (used), so sod it. for the sake of 30 quid.
in my place the 12600kf costs 210$ , while 13600kf costs 350$ .
140$ for 10% differece.. not worth it
12600k its more cheaper and colder than 13/14, consume a lot less energy, and cost the half price. It is still the greater choice for a budget pc.
People should learn to tell the difference between technological "innovation" and pocket milking to fund meaningless wars . . I'll keep my money in my pocket thanks
The ONLY reason one might purchase the 13600K over the 13600K is that the 14600K is a tiny bit cooler. Not all countries have a cold clime and in such countries temps are what "break" a CPU. Brilliant benchmark by the way!
13600k all the way
Both e and p cores are higher on 14600k. 5.1 is max e on 13600k and 3.9 on e, you should know this.
You need 4090 to test cpu
Just to add:
Cinebench R23 score for a 12600k at 5ghz / 4ghz
Single: 1945
Multi: 18748
No real IPC gains.

I know nothing about computers except how to play them, my gaming computer is a built model that was thrown together when world of warcraft came out doing 60fps, and every couple of years id upgrade it. But i was sick and my computer lacked, this past november I brought a new 4060 rtx graphics card and a new samsung 2TB hard drive. My computer i realized is not upgraded all the way Im running windows 10 but want windows 11 so ive decided to upgrade the rest of my system. The guy that is going to upgrade my system is telling me to stick with ddr3 get a motherboard and cpu. The prob;em is I dont know what the hell im doing lol. im a gaming fanatic and want a faster system some one on youtube suggested i get the intel i5 12600k I thought about it looked it up but still not sure what it is, is it the processor? what motherboard would be compatible 200fps sounds awesome yes can I get some help please I dont want to make any mistakes or waste my money. THANK YOU. dont worry about the ddr3, im will to go ddr4 or ddr5.what ever that is for lol. sorry for the inconvience im not a computer builder.
