Intel® Core i9 14900 24 Core 5.8GHz LGA1700 CPU (BX8071514900)

The Intel Core i9 14900 is a powerhouse of the 14th Gen “Raptor Lake Refresh” family, designed for elite-level gaming and heavy multitasking.

It features a unique hybrid architecture with 24 cores (8 Performance-cores and 16 Efficient-cores), delivering a blistering max turbo frequency of 5.8GHz. Unlike the “K” series, this 65W base power model is optimized for high-end performance without the extreme heat and power requirements of its overclockable siblings.

This processor includes integrated Intel UHD Graphics 770, which is vital for troubleshooting if your dedicated GPU fails and enables Intel Quick Sync for faster video encoding.

It comes bundled with an Intel Laminar RH1 cooler, making it an out-of-the-box solution for high-performance desktop systems.

Why Buy from The Computer Guy Charmhaven?

• Local Stock: Pick up the latest 14th Gen flagship directly from our Charmhaven superstore—no more waiting for interstate shipping for your critical build components.

• Expert Advice: Many builders instinctively reach for the “14900K,” but the 14900 (Non-K) is often the smarter choice for professional workstations. It delivers nearly identical “out-of-the-box” speed but at a much more manageable 65W base power. This means you don’t need a massive 360mm AIO liquid cooler just to keep it from throttling during a long render. Come in and we can show you the performance-per-watt data to see which one fits your specific workflow!
