Product overview Released October 16, 2023, the Core i5-14600KF is a 14th‑gen “Raptor Lake Refresh” desktop CPU for LGA1700. It combines 6 P‑cores and 8 E‑cores (20 threads) with a 3.5 GHz base and up to 5.3 GHz turbo, and works on Intel 600‑ and 700‑series motherboards with DDR4‑3200 or DDR5‑5600 and PCIe 5.0/4.0 support.
Positioned as a mainstream i5, it exists to deliver strong gaming performance and solid creator throughput without i7/i9 pricing. It’s well‑suited for 1080p and 1440p gaming, streaming, light video editing, and everyday productivity. Unique note: it’s an unlocked “K” chip with no integrated graphics (“F”), so a discrete GPU is required. It is not discontinued.
