New Information on Core 14th Generation Non-K Processor Specifications
Some time ago, RedGamingTech deliberated over certain specifications of Intel’s 14th generation Core processor, Raptor Lake Refresh, though the specifications presented seemed somewhat dubious. It was subsequently revealed that the Core i5-14600K was not, in fact, an 8P+8E configuration but rather maintained a 6P+8E configuration.
Presently, @g01d3nm4ng0 has proffered part of the specifications for the non-K processors of the 14th generation Core series. The Core i5-14400 differs slightly from prior revelations, remaining a 6P+4E configuration instead of a 6P+8E. Moreover, specifications for the Core i3 processors were not provided, although the base frequency and cache capacity of the processor were disclosed. Intel is set to launch the Raptor Lake Refresh’s K version in October this year, while the non-K version will wait until next year’s CES. Compared to the K series, the non-K processors have a TDP of only 65W, and lower, locked multiplier frequencies.
The Core i9-14900 and Core i7-14700 possess the same number of cores as the K versions, although their clock speed will be lower. They also have versions without integrated graphics, the F versions. The core count for the Core i5-14600/14500 matches that of the Core i5-14600K at 6P+8E, with the two differences solely in terms of frequency, and there are no derivatives with an ‘F’ suffix. As for the Core i5-14400’s core count reduces to 6P+4E, and the L3 cache also decreases from 24MB to 20MB. Derivatives without integrated graphics are available. Simply put, except for the Core i7, the others do not differ much from the current 13th generation, merely having increased frequencies. Whether the Core i3 will truly become a 6P configuration awaits further information.
