Intel Core i9-14900KF Geekbenched in v6.2
OneRaichu has conducted a series of Geekbench 6.2 tests on an Intel Core i9-14900KF CPU, very likely a preview sample—his results have arrived for public viewing in the form of three new database entries. The hardware enthusiast (and sometimes leaker) is expected to produce a full review of said flagship Raptor Lake Refresh processor. His evaluation arrives roughly a week after leaked Intel Core i9-14900K processors appearing online, via benchmark results produced in Geekbench 6.1 and CPU-Z. The KF variant is missing an integrated GPU, while its K sibling is likely endowed with a bog standard Intel UHD Graphics 700-series iGPU.
The database entries reveal single-core scores starting at 3322 and going up to 3347 points. Multi-core scores span from 22895 through to 23051 points. A Geekbench 5 result is thrown in for good measure, with achievements of 2412 points in single-core, and 26972 points in multi-core performance. OneRaichu's test build utilized an ASRock Z790 Taichi motherboard and 32 GB of DDR5-7000 memory, his OS of choice appears to be Microsoft Windows 11 (non-Pro) 64-bit. VideoCardz has crunched the numbers: "preliminary benchmarks suggest that the Core i9-14900KF outperforms the i9-13900K by approximately 5-6% in multi-threaded tests and a minimum 12% improvement in single-core performance."
Their evaluation continues: "However, it's crucial to bear in mind that we lack detailed information regarding the test settings employed by OneRaichu during these evaluations, so these scores may not provide a complete and accurate representation of the processor's overall capabilities."

253W power budget on a TSMC 4nm is a very different beast to a 253W power budget on
Intel 10nm'Intel 7'. At stock, non-cheaty power limits, the 13900K is barely ever clocking to 5.8GHz, 5.5GHz is far more realistic but I wouldn't be surprised if TSMC 4nm can sustain 6GHz on several P-cores without turning the socket into hot slag.That's a 9% clock improvement before any IPC gains are considered....
All I really care about is performance at ~100W. Very few people really need 250W CPUs
The official announcement and concrete specs are due at the Intel event on the 19th Sept, so not long to wait for answers.
For some reason people seem to think binning quality and voltages only apply if you want to o/c, its really important for stock performance as well, especially on these power hungry pre overclocked chips.
However I would expect voltage efficiency to boost multi core performance more than single core as single core load's are probably not hitting TDP.Thanks, wasnt aware of the specific design limitations of it.
