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.
Der AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D ist ein High-End-Prozessor, der speziell für Gamer und anspruchsvolle Anwender entwickelt wurde. Er basiert auf der neuesten Zen-5-Architektur von AMD und wird im fortschrittlichen 4-nm-Verfahren gefertigt, was nicht nur höhere Effizienz, sondern auch eine bessere Leistung ermöglicht. Mit seinen 8 Kernen und 16 Threads bietet der 9800X3D eine solide Basis für rechenintensive Anwendungen.
Der größte Vorteil des AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D ist die 3D V-Cache-Technologie, die komplett überarbeitet wurde und sich signifikant von den Modellen der 7000er-Serie unterscheidet. Die Änderungen resultieren in einer deutlich gesteigerten Taktfrequenz und einer besseren Wärmeverteilung. Der interne Aufbau besteht weiterhin aus einem I/O-Die sowie einem CCD. Letzterer beinhaltet die 8 Kerne sowie den 3D V-Cache und wird im 4nm-Prozess hergestellt. Beim I/O-Die hält AMD weiterhin am 6nm-Herstellungsprozess fest. Die Taktraten steigen im Vergleich zum Vorgängermodell spürbar. So beträgt der Basistakt 4,7 GH/z, wenngleich im Turbo bis zu 5,2 GH/s möglich sind.
Neben der überragenden Gaming-Performance überzeugt der AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D auch in produktiven Anwendungen. Während er speziell auf Spieleoptimierung ausgelegt ist, schneidet er in Anwendungen wie 3D-Modellierung, Videobearbeitung und anderen kreativen Workloads spürbar besser ab als ein AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D.
Die Leistungsaufnahme des AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D beträgt 120 Watt, welche als PPT maximal 162 Watt beträgt. Damit gibt es in diesem Punkt keine Änderungen im Vergleich zum AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D. Aufgrund gesteigerter Leistung kann die Effizienz des AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D spürbar gesteigert werden. An die Effizienz der Arrow-Lake-Prozessoren kommt AMD allerdings trotz deutlich besserer Gaming-Leistung nicht heran.
The AMD Ryzen 7 9700X is an upper mid-range desktop CPU of the Granite Ridge product family that sports 8 Zen 5 cores (16 threads) running at 3.8 GHz to 5.5 GHz, along with PCIe 5 support and a basic RDNA 2 architecture iGPU. The Ryzen was launched in June 2024, with sales slated to start some time in August.
Architecture and Features
Like Strix Point APUs, Granite Ridge processors make use of the new Zen 5 microarchitecture. However, there are no efficient cores here; all of 9700X's cores are full Zen 5 cores with a "proper" Zen 5 implementation, not the simplified mobile version that has a lower AVX-512 performance. Furthermore, Granite Ridge is a multi-die design with only the CPU cores produced using a fairly modern 4 nm TSMC process. Strix Point processors are a single-die design, from what we know.
According to AMD, desktop Zen 5 delivers a 16% IPC uplift over Zen 4 thanks to branch prediction improvements and other refinements.
Elsewhere, the 9700X has 32 MB of L3 cache and 24 direct PCIe 5 lanes (3.93 GB/s throughput per lane) with up to 12 additional PCIe 4 lanes available depending on the motherboard. It supports DDR5 RAM as fast as 5,600 MT/s (up to 8,000 MT/s if overclocked).
The 9700X is unlocked for overclocking. Naturally, the AM5 socket CPU fully supports Windows 11, 64-bit Windows 10 as well as many Linux distros.
The Radeon 610M comes equipped with just 128 unified shaders running at up to 2,200 MHz. While this certainly isn't a gaming GPU, it's fast enough to run some competitive titles such as Counter-Strike 2 (~50 fps at 1080p / Low) as well as older (pre-2019) titles.
It can HW-decode many popular video codecs including first and foremost AVC, HEVC, VP9, AV1.
Power consumption
The CPU cores are built with TSMC's N4P process for a good, as of mid 2024, power efficiency. (Apple is the leader in this regard with the second-generation 3 nm process.)
The Ryzen 7's long-term TDP is either 65 W or 105 W, with each user free to make their own choice. If overclocked, its power consumption figures will increase significantly.
