Review: Intel® Core™ i9-14900 Review - perhaps the ideal i9 CPU if a stable System is essential! - Firstly, I have purchased this CPU with my own hard-earned money so, this is a genuine Review and not one that has been er, cough, cough, otherwise encouraged. For any self-build PC, that is also intended to do some useful work for its living, then there are just three requirements that matter, namely: Stability, Stability and Stability. If that's what you need, then this is probably the CPU for you. It was certainly the CPU for me, as I am building a machine for a purpose, and that is not to play Games, nor engage in pointless contests to extract the momentary best peak performance before calling the Fire Brigade, just after all the street lights outside have gone dim because the PC is drawing so much power! The Intel i9 14900 has the potential to be the rock steady Eddie of the i9 14th Generation line-up, simply because it is NOT designed to be Overclocked. The CPU multiplier has been locked, which limits that potential. Great, that is exactly what I wanted, so I was delighted when INTEL launched this one at the start of this year (2024). The Thermal Design Power ("TDP") is also just 65 Watts, so this CPU should run considerably cooler than the alternatives that can be overclocked, that all seem to operate at 125 Watts or more when under the same comparative load. Basically, the TDP is the amount of heat the CPU is expected to output when under a set load. Intel also refer to this as the Processor Base Power. Unlike most, if not all, of the others in the i9 range, this CPU has the INTEL UHD Graphics 770 Integrated Graphics Solution which means that, provided your MotherBoard has the necessary video out Ports, you will generate a display even without a primary video card being fitted. This also provides a very useful fall back should the main video card (AKA Graphics Processing Unit or "GPU") play up. In turn, having video on the CPU, can also be very handy and useful when troubleshooting problems with the main GPU, or when testing generally. I've gone for the ASUS ProArt Z790 Creator MotherBoard, which seemed to be the best option for the work I have in mind for the PC I am building (Design, 3D, Animation, Video and general creativity in both RGB and CMYK colour spaces). That board has many non-Gaming useful extras such as Thunderbolt, and both 2.5 Gigabit 10 Gigabit RJ45 network ports. Before buying, I could not tell if this CPU came with a Thermal Solution (AKA a CPU Cooler). I can now confirm that it does, as shown in the images. I have already gone for a water cooled AIO, but at least I also now have a back up CPU cooler, should that ever be needed. I've also gone for a matched set of 128GB Kingston Fury DDR 5 5600 MHz RAM, which comes as 4x 32GB Sticks. Before Ordering, I treble checked both the INTEL and ASUS Hardware Compatibility Lists, and the options for 128GB of RAM was, in fact, quite limited no matter which ASUS MotherBoard I went for. I can also confirm that the CPU has a THREE YEAR WARRANTY from INTEL, starting from purchase, or from the purchase of a commercially pre-built PC with this CPU in it. I have added an image of the INTEL Terms that came in the box as confirmation. The INTEL i9 14900 runs at 2000 GHz by default, which is automatically boosted up to 5800 GHz if the workload requires it. Again, this is what I wanted, a low tick over that can be accelerated when needed. I went for a Corsair iCUE 5000X Case, and Corsair 1200 SHIFT PSU, because that has the connections on the side, which should allow me to use the two Hard Drive bays that are just in front of the PSU in that Case (so in the middle bottom visually). I gather the usual PSUs with connections inboard, can interfere with the Hard Drive bays, as the cables clash with the Hard Drive bay. This may be useful to know. Lastly, I've also gone for a Thermal Grizzly CPU Mounting or Contact Frame, so will not be using the usual spring loaded CPU Clip on the MotherBoard, which I will remove. This option should provide even pressure and so avoid any potential problems with bending of the CPU when fitted. That Contact Frame is also said to aid cooling. I have also included an image of the Box when I was having dinner, as that was when desertcart delivered it, which may give you an idea of size, and specifically the size of the included Cooler. I may add the dimensions later, just for reference. I'm not anticipating any snags but, I may update this Review if anything of interest comes to light over the coming weeks. I hope this helps to decide if this CPU is for you. There are faster alternatives but, if reliability is paramount, then this CPU looks to be a pretty safe bet.

Der Prozessor ist der beste von Intel wenn man viel Leistung und trotzdem stromsparend unterwegs sein möchte ! Wie ich das meine , ganz einfach der 14900k hat zwar noch mehr Leistung benötigt aber ein Vielfaches an Strom , was aus meiner Sicht einfach nur für Gamer oder ähnliches Interessant ist ! Ich meine da sind ja auch entsprechende Grafikkarten im Einsatz wo Stromsparen sowieso kein Thema sein kann ! Der 14900 ist Ideal für Multi Core Anwendungen im normalen Einsatzbereich , mein z2sff zb. benötigt im normalen Betrieb mit core i914900 , 32 gb ram 3ssd mit gesamt 10TB gerade mal 40watt da kann man echt nicht meckern natürlich wenn ich ihn voll auslaste gehts nach oben aber auch nicht mehr als 150 watt bei benchmarks z.b , mein Gaming Pc zieht da mit 1200Watt schon mehr Kohle aus der Tasche ! Also mein Tipp macht es wie ich baut Euch den Pc nach Euren Bedürfnissen dann rentiert sich das bei der nächsten Stromrechnung !
