The AMD Ryzen 9 79 00 is a high-end desktop processorfrom the Raphael series with 12 cores and hyperthreading (SMT), which means it can process up to 24 threads simultaneously. Launched in early 2023, the Ryzen 9 7900 is the fastest 12-core processor with 65 watts TDP.
The Ryzen 9 7900 clocks at 3.7 GHz base clock and reaches up to 5.4 GHz on one core in Turbo mode. This is also the difference to the higher clocked Ryzen 9 7900X.
At first glance, the internal structure of the processor has not changed fundamentally. The AMD Ryzen 9 7900 is still based on the chiplet design consisting of two CCD clusters, each containing a CCX with 8 cores. However, the manufacturing process has been scaled down to 5 nm, which ensures higher clock rates. There is also the IO die, which contains the memory controller and the iGPU, among other things. This is now manufactured in a 6 nm structure width.
The AMD Ryzen 9 7900 can impress in games thanks to the significantly improved IPC.
The Intel Core i7-14700K is a desktop processor based on the Raptor Lake architecture, which inherits the 13th generation of Intel Core processors with minor improvements. The processor offers a base clock of 2.5 GHz or 3.4 GHz and reaches up to 5.6 GHz in Turbo. The basic CPU structure remains unchanged. The Intel Core i7-14700K features 8 P-cores and 12 E-cores, allowing up to 28 threads to be processed in parallel. The Intel Core i7-14700K still offers a freely selectable multiplier, which makes overclocking much easier. It is also based on the LGA 1700 socket, which was already introduced with Alder Lake.
Performance
Compared to the Intel Core i7-13700K, the IPC of the new Core i7-14700K has only been increased slightly. This means that the difference in performance is only due to the higher number of efficiency cores (12 vs. 8) and higher clock rates.
Graphics unit
Like the Intel Core i7-13700K, the Intel Core i7-14700K also has an integrated graphics unit. The Intel Iris Xe architecture continues to serve as the basis. In terms of performance, however, nothing has changed with the Intel UHD Graphics 770.
Power consumption
The TDP of the Intel Core i7-14700K is 125 Watts, with the option of consuming up to 253 watts in Turbo mode.
