Honestly nailed 6.1 on 4 cores with 13900ks don’t think I’ll need another replica of cpu
Depends if you get a decent bin. Most people won’t.
Goodness. Soo get this: good 13900K CPUs get up binned to 13900KS CPUs, the best of which have recently turned into 14900K CPUs, making the latest flagship an up-bin of an up-bin. And all you’re paying for with each up-bin is 100-200MHz at similar voltages, no guarantee of IMC which is still all over the place and for all you know, an i5 may run DDR5 better than your up-binned up-bin. And now you’re telling me there’s even more up-binning to the 14900KS?? Making this, what? An up-bin, of an up-bin, of an up-bin, of an up-bin?? Amazing!!
Intel Ultra+: the Refresh² edition
And then now they’ll claim “and we kept the same socket for the 13th and 14th gen” when it’s really the same generation.
You’re not wrong, but there is a significant price consideration. The 14900K is binned about the same as the 13900KS (6 GHz VID < 1.5v), but costs at least $100 less. Some people claim the IMC is better on the 13900KS, but don’t think that can be answered at the moment.
Yes Gelsinger personally went to the process lab and licked these 14900ks before telling them to pack it up.
It’s got the best up-bin.
I can run my 14900k 6.2 all cores under 80c
…said no one ever
Is it faster than my 6700k though?
What’s the difference between KS and K?
better binning resulting in slightly higher frequency stock
We in lake cpu, can’t wait for ocean, that shit gonna go real fast swooshily like
Huh… Well if thats what they need to do get some revenue, I guess I understand, but I wont be buying it. I really thought this node was already tapped out…
You forgot the “currently” pal.
Is it faster than my 6700k though?
I was able to overclock my 13900K to 6.2 and it was stable
In frequency only. 7950x3d will still beat it at most things
ah yes boost clock pr strikes again
It’s amazing to see how powerful a Jay Z endorsement is for Intel. All my gaming buddies ridiculed me for building a 13900k and now that Jay is switching to Intel, they wanna know “How’s that Intel working and does it BSOD”? 😮💨
yeah right haha
6.2ghz for 0.1 seconds at 110 degrees @ 500watts, the intel way! Will stick to my 7950x3D
Yes, you stick to your overpriced marketing chip which cripples itself under gaming while running hotter at a lower power draw…
overpriced
Ye, flagship CPUs are always over priced
marketing chip
How? Intel is the one with the mindshare with non-tech inclined people. The amount of mindshare they have for their poor record over the past couple years in client is really impressive.
which cripples itself under gaming
3D cache with Zen 4 is just way more impressive than the bloated, power hungry RPC core. And more performant to boot.
while running hotter at a lower power draw…
No one cares about that lmao
Also sorry you had to get a 3435x. That mesh must suck lol
