Intel Core i9-14900KS debuts with 6.2 GHz max turbo frequency
Intel introduced the Core i9-14900KS processor today with one major milestone â the processor now reaches 6.2 GHz turbo frequency, a first for stock desktop CPUs.
The processor gains 200 MHz over the Core i9-14900K and Core i9-13900KS but keeps the rest of the specs, like 24 CPU cores and 32 Threads.
The KS variant of the 14th-gen Intel chip has a higher base power limit of 150W, compared with the K version, but was already the same as the 13th-gen KS.
The max turbo frequency across the board is 200 MHz higher; everything else remains the same â 36 MB cache, 192 GB supported RAM, Intel Graphics 770 with 300 MHz base frequency and 1.65 GHz max dynamic frequency.
Intel is already selling the Core i9-14900KS through retailers as a boxed processor or integrated into systems and OEM partners. The price for the processor is set at $699.
