Im sure it was a mistake but i received an i7 14700k instead of the i9 14900k. Still a great processor but its not what i bought.

14th Generation Intel processors are all currently having issues. I lost the silicone lottery after sixty days and I am now out the full price of this process as Best Buy does not support the RMA that Intel tells you to come to them for.
You are playing rush and roulette with your money if you buy this item. Better to get an AMD and not here.

Impossible to cool no matter how big of a radiator I use. Very unstable but that could be on my end. Or a Faulty Cpu. Either way I have a machine the price of a used car that is collecting dust :)

Read about the 13th and 14th gen processors in the news and you will see the issues. Mine start crashing here and there and now will not run any program, even windoes creation drive for more than a couple seconds. Its toast and i never overclocked it once. Game developers have warnings about these chips and the know problems. If I would have known this, I would have easily went AMD for my build. Too late now.

I purchased a 14900K from Best Buy, and it degraded within five months of use to where it is unstable and unusable. Best Buy will not refund and Intel is dragging their feet with a RMA. Go AMD or buy 12th Gen for the time being.

I bought a product that I thought was new, I received an open box and since I don't speak English I can't make the return, there is no channel for the customer to talk, ridiculous customer service

From intel "we have determined that elevated operating voltage is causing instability issues in some 13th/14th Gen desktop processors." Chips may have been damaged, unknown for now, their fix will not solve damage if it occurred, you must RMA. I would not recommend upgrading to the 14th or 13th gen chips at this time.

Avoid the 13900k and 14900k at all costs. These processors are so poorly built. I've spent over 100 hours in the last year troubleshooting, not to mention the 100+ hours added to my reboot times, since it takes 20-30 reboots to get a "Stable" boot. Submitted RMA claim to Intel along with thousands and thousands of others.

Tons of stability issues so I got it RMA'd through Intel. The RMA process was painless enough, but now a few months later it's completely dead. The 14th gen Intel processors are really bad and have super high failure rates it turns out.

CPU was dead out of the box. After exterme amounts of troubleshooting and replacing every other part in a brand new build, the culprit was the cpu.
Ordered a replacement from amazon and it worked perfectly fine.

Honestly dont buy intel. Ive soent the last 8 months troubleshooting and these 14th gen intel cpus all have issues. You will spend your time in RMA which is full of others doing the same. Im getting an AMD, sorry intel.

I got this and it didn't work. I can't believe something this expensive doesn't work straight out of the box.
I had to wait until I got everything I needed to build a PC and now that I had the chance to build it this doesn't work and now I can not return it or get any support. DO NOT BUY
