Intel Core i9-14901E vs Intel Core i7-14701TE

Intel Core i9-14901E

► remove from comparison Intel Core i9-14901E

The Intel Core i9-14901E is a peculiar and fast Raptor Lake family desktop processor (SoC) that has 8 performance cores but 0 efficient cores. It's the lack of E-cores that makes 14X01 chips special.

The product has decently sized level 2 and 3 caches at 16 MB and 36 MB, respectively. Its CPU cores run at up to 5.6 GHz. The UHD 770 serves as the integrated graphics solution. There is no 'proper' NPU here, however, the full vPro Enterprise feature set is onboard including Remote Platform Erase.

The i9 chip is manufactured using the Intel 7 process which is very old, as of late 2025. Its base TDP sits at 65 W by default, a value standard for desktop PCs.

Performance

As several Geekbench 6 test results indicate, a 14901E running at full steam is good for about 14 to 15 thousand points. Even in late 2025, this makes it a proper high-end CPU, close to AMD's Ryzen 7 7800X3D and AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 370, just as some quick examples. It is fast enough for any tasks and applications one could run in 2025 and 2026, top games included; in the meantime, its 45-W 14901TE brother will be slower by at least 10% due to lower wattage and consequently, lower Boost clock speeds.

Intel Core i7-14701TE

► remove from comparison Intel Core i7-14701TE

The Intel Core i5-14701TE is a peculiar Raptor Lake family desktop processor (SoC) that has 8 performance cores running at up to 5.2 GHz but 0 efficient cores. It's the lack of E-cores that makes 14X01 chips special.

The product has big level 2 and 3 caches at 16 MB and 33 MB, respectively. The UHD 770 serves as the integrated graphics solution. There is no 'proper' NPU here.

The i7 chip is manufactured using the Intel 7 process which is fairly old, as of mid 2025. Its base TDP sits at 45 W by default meaning at least one fan is required to keep it cool.

Compared to the cheaper i5-14501TE, the 14701TE comes with more CPU cores, faster RAM controller and marginally faster clock speeds.

Performance

Its multi-thread performance should be very close to that of an i7-13700H or a Ryzen AI 7 350, makin it adequate for any task in 2025.
