The 14th Generation Intel Core i9-14900KF flagship CPU from Intel has leaked yet again, this time with the fastest single and multi-threaded performance results in Geekbench 6. One Raichu, a well-known leaker, ran the most recent benchmarks within Geekbench 6. The leaker was able to run the Intel Core i9-14900KF CPU in both Geekbench 6 and Geekbench 5.
Based on the results, it appears that we are looking at a processor that is similar to the retail model rather than the ES chip that has been tested in previous benchmarks. As a result, performance is likely to be slightly improved, and we are also conducting these tests in a true benchmarking environment, as opposed to the odd selection of RAM and board pairings that we had previously.
Intel Core i9-14900KF CPU will have 24 cores and 32 threads in an 8+16 configuration.
The processor will have up to 36 MB of Smart Cache and a TDP of 125W (253W PL2). It will have base clock rates of 3.2 GHz and a Thermal Velocity Boost of up to 6.0 GHz. This is a +200 MHz increase over the Core i9-13900K and the same as the Core i9-13900KS.
The Intel Core i9-14900KF CPU was tested at its stock speeds on an ASRock Z790 Taichi motherboard with 32 GB of DDR5-7000 memory. In Geekbench 6, the CPU achieved an incredible 3347 points in single-core tests and 23,051 points in multi-core tests, which are already the fastest marks we have seen for any mainstream chip to date. The same CPU achieved 2412 points in single-core tests and 26,972 points in multi-core tests in Geekbench 5.
The Intel Core i9-14900KF’s impressive 6 GHz out-of-the-box clock speeds make it up to 13% faster in single-threaded tests and 15% faster in multi-threaded tests than the Core i9-13900K, while the same chip is up to 20% faster in multi-threaded tests and 15% faster in single-threaded tests than the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X.
That’s a significant increase in Geekbench performance with a simple clock speed increase. These tests are especially relevant because 14th Generation CPUs will be able to implement a stronger IMC, resulting in quicker memory support. The leaker, Raichu, also claims that he can achieve a higher score with the standard clocks under the appropriate conditions, implying that the chip will require some rather beefy cooling arrangements to reach its full potential.
