The Intel Core i5-14500T is a power-efficient desktop processor based on the Raptor Lake architecture, which was introduced in October 2022. The processor offers a base clock of 1.7 GHz and reaches up to 4.6 GHz in Turbo. The hybrid CPU architecture, which was introduced with Alder Lake, also benefits the Raptor Lake processors. The suffix T stands for a particularly economical CPU model and with a TDP of just 35 watts (PL1 = 35 watts), these processors are ideally suited to small, compact systems.
Performance
The low power consumption ultimately results in slightly lower performance compared to the Intel Core i5-14500. Depending on how the PL2 (92 watts) is defined, there may be noticeable differences in multi-core performance. Compared to the Intel Core i5-12500T, the Intel Core i5-14500T is superior due to the higher number of physical computing units. Compared to the Intel Core i5-13500T, there is no noticeable increase in performance due to the same number of computing units.
Graphics unit
Like the Intel Core i5-13500T, the Intel Core i5-14500T offers an integrated graphics unit. The Intel Iris Xe architecture continues to serve as the basis. In terms of performance, however, not much has changed with the new Intel UHD Graphics 770. The iGPU of the Intel Core i5-14500T also clocks 100 MHz higher, but this does not make a noticeable difference in everyday use.
Power consumption
The TDP of the Intel Core i5-14500T is 35 watts, with the option to increase this to up to 92 watts in Turbo mode. Compared to the Intel Core i5-13500T, nothing has changed in terms of power consumption.
