Intel Core i7-14700K Review: Equivalent performance to that of Core i9-13900K and Ryzen 9 7950X3D for nearly US$200 less

Raptor in sheep's clothing. The Core i7-14700K stands out in the Intel 14th gen Raptor Lake-S Refresh lineup with 20 cores and 28 threads. While the Core i7-14700K comes very close to the pricier Core i9-13900K, AMD Ryzen 9 7950X, and the Ryzen 9 7950X3D in overall CPU performance, things aren't as straightforward in gaming.

Intel's 14th gen Raptor Lake-S Refresh is mostly about increased boost clocks, support for faster XMP profiles, and some overclocking enhancements. The architecture, however, remains identical to the 13th gen Raptor Lake-S CPUs.

We have previously reviewed the Core i5-14600K and Core i9-14900K processors, but one series that stands out from the pack is the new Core i7.

The Core i7 series has traditionally witnessed increasing E-core counts with each generation from Alder Lake. With 20 cores (8P + 12E) and 28 threads, the Core i7-14700K and the Core i7-14700KF are the only 14th gen CPUs to benefit from increased E-core counts compared to corresponding SKUs in the 13th gen.

In this review, we see how the Core i7-14700K fares against the competition and whether the increased E-core count proves to be of any practical consequence in productivity and gaming.

Corresponding to the increased number of E-cores the combined L2 and L3 cache is now 61 MB compared to 54 MB in the Core i7-13700K. Additionally, the Core i7-14700K also sees a slight uptick in P-core and E-core boosts, which are now specified at 5.6 GHz and 4.3 GHz, respectively.

Intel continues to utilize a 125 W Processor Base Power (PBP) or PL1 and a 253 W Maximum Turbo Boost (MTB) or PL2.

CPU benchmarks: Advantage in single-core over AMD Zen 4

Cumulative CPU performance is right on the heels of the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D and the Ryzen 9 7950X while trailing behind the Core i9-14900K by just 7%.

In single-core, the Core i7-14700K is placed perceivably ahead of AMD's Zen 4 offerings in Cinebench R20 and R23, while the latter do show advantages in Geekbench single-core tests.

The Ryzen 9 7950XD and Ryzen 9 7950X have a decent advantage in multi-core over the Core i7-14700K given their higher thread count. This is also reflected in V-Ray CPU tests that see the Core i7-14700K trailing the Ryzen 9 7950X by as much as 20%.

The Core i7-14700K trails behind the flagship Core i9-14900K by up to 8% in Cinebench single-core tests and by up to 13% in multi-core, which is reasonable considering the US$180 price difference between these two Raptor Lake-S Refresh CPUs.

Cinebench R15 Multi Loop

Intel does not supply a cooler in the box, so you will have to rely on a capable third-party solution, preferably an all-in-one (AiO) liquid cooler. We did not notice any performance throttling during a Cinebench R15 multi-core loop test with the Cooler Master MasterLiquid ML360L AiO.

Intel Core i7-14700K: Ø5402 (5323.4-5459.26)

During the Cinebench R15 multi-core loop, the Core i7-14700K can boost up to 4.79 GHz, but this comes at the expense of consuming nearly 313 W and a 92 °C core temperature.

However, the average package power during the loop is only about 195 W that still yields 4.7 GHz average clocks while the core temperatures level out at about 76 °C.

Does disabling extra E-cores help with gaming?

Ever since Intel first introduced simultaneous multithreading (SMT) aka HyperThreading on consumer Pentium 4 NetBurst CPUs back in 2002, enthusiasts often quipped about disabling this feature for FPS boosts in games.

With the introduction of a hybrid core architecture in Alder Lake, discussions about eking out even more fps in games by disabling the low IPC E-cores surfaced once again.

Certain games like Atlas Fallen have been known to suffer performance penalties with E-cores enabled on Raptor Lake CPUs. Cyberpunk 2077 recently received a Patch 2.11 update that provides an option to override Intel's Thread Director and the OS's scheduling to prioritize the P-cores.

According to Intel, it is not possible to fully disable all E-cores in the CPU. Besides, the Core i5-14600K has a performance edge over the Core i7-14700K in 1080p gaming and is also the likely choice for the vast majority of gamers.

With this mind, we tested the Core i7-14700K's gaming performance with four of its 12 E-cores disabled to mimic the Core i5-14600K's E-core count.

Cumulatively, the Core i7-14700K with just eight functioning E-cores does perform marginally better in gaming. The exact benefit, if any, will depend on the game itself.

For instance, Far Cry 5 shows the highest gains at 1080p Ultra (+19%) and 720p Low presets (+31%) over the default Core i7-14700K config whereas Borderlands 3 shows zero benefit in disabling E-cores.

Other titles such as Metro Exodus show miniscule variations while gains in The Witcher 3 do not amount to much.

Power consumption: Zen 4 continues to trounce Intel in energy efficiency

Similar to our observations on the laptop side of things, AMD's Zen 4 offerings continue to show excellent energy efficiency vs. the Intel Raptor Lake-S competition.

Although the Core i7-14700K shows a 17% higher power efficiency over the Core i5-14600K in Cinebench R23 multi-core, the Ryzen 9 7950X3D manages an impressive 45% lead despite both CPUs yielding similar scores in the benchmark.

The Core i9-14900K-based system guggles 537 W from the wall during a Prime95 in-place large FFTs stress, which is 26% higher than the Core i7-14700K PC's 400 W total system power consumption. This is in turn 45% higher than a Ryzen 9 7950X3D-based PC.

Intel Core i7-14700K. Review sample courtesy of Intel India.

With Intel deciding to make Meteor Lake laptop-only, desktop users have to contend with refreshed Raptor Lake-S parts. The Core i7-14700K and its KF counterpart are unique SKUs in the Intel 14th gen Raptor Lake-S Refresh lineup, being the only ones to have received a bump in core and thread count with their 20C/28T configuration.

This increased core and thread count helps the Core i7-14700K inch ever so closer to behemoths like the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D (+2%) and the Core i9-13900K (+4%) in cumulative CPU benchmarks while remaining within striking distance of the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X (+5%) and the Core i9-14900K (+9%).

The Intel Core i7-14700K is a lone star in the 14th gen lineup that offers Core i9-13900K levels of performance thanks to its unique 20C/28T configuration. However, there's little incentive to upgrade from the 13th gen, especially for gamers."

Gaming paints somewhat of a different picture, though. The Core i7-14700K makes for a good gaming CPU on its own, but the Core i5-14600K (US$300 on Amazon) and the Ryzen 7 7800X3D (US$369 on Amazon) make more sense if gaming is your priority. While having eight P-cores in the Core i7-14700K is certainly welcome, the added E-cores cumulatively seem to cause a regression in gaming workloads. The perceivable gains as a result of disabling four of the 12 E-cores corroborates this fact.

This is, of course, highly dependent on the game and how effectively it can utilize the available threads. The Core i9s can work around this problem thanks to their increased boosts on both P and E-cores along with larger caches. Having large caches is also the primary reason behind the Ryzen 7 7800X3D and the Ryzen 9 7950X3D (US$599 on Amazon) being the absolute best CPUs for gaming.

The Core i7-14700K currently retails for about US$400. At this price, it is certainly cheaper than the Core i9-13900K (US$525 on Amazon) and the Core i9-14900K (US$545 on Amazon) while offering comparable performance in CPU-specific tasks. The AMD Ryzen 9 7900X (US$383.55 on Amazon) is the nearest equivalent from Team Red in terms of pricing. However, the Core i7-14700K shows clear advantages in single and multi-core tests comparatively.

Frankly, there's not a lot separating the 13th and 14th gen Raptor Lake-S CPUs, so you should be fine with processors from either generation for all practical purposes. Whether you should be upgrading to a Core i7-14700K depends solely on the pricing and your current setup.

Upgrading from Alder Lake-S or lower? Probably yes. Coming from a Core i7-13700K? Chuck it. Looking for a more power-efficient gaming chip? Go Zen 4.

Price and Availability

The Intel Core i7-14700K is currently available for US$400 on both Amazon US and Best Buy while the Core i7-14700KF without the iGPU can be had for about US$393.

In India, the Core i7-14700K and the Core i7-14700KF currently retail for ₹45,899 and ₹44,999, respectively on Amazon IN although you can get it for a lot less at other local retailers.
