Intel Core i7-14700KF Processor - Unleash Maximum Performance

The Intel Core i7-14700KF delivers exceptional processing power with its 20-core, 28-thread architecture. Featuring 8 Performance-cores and 12 Efficient-cores, this 14th Gen Raptor Lake processor reaches turbo speeds up to 5.6GHz, making it ideal for demanding gaming, content creation, and multitasking workloads.

Hybrid Architecture for Superior Performance

Built on Intel's advanced performance hybrid architecture, the i7-14700KF intelligently distributes workloads between P-cores optimized for single-threaded performance and E-cores designed for multi-threaded tasks. Intel Thread Director automatically routes tasks to the most efficient core, maximizing performance across gaming, streaming, video editing, and productivity applications simultaneously.

Designed for Enthusiasts and Overclockers

The "KF" designation means this processor is fully unlocked for overclocking and does not include integrated graphics. With a base power of 125W and maximum turbo power of 253W, enthusiasts can push performance limits using Intel Extreme Tuning Utility. The unlocked multiplier provides flexibility for users seeking maximum performance customization.
