Customer Ratings & Reviews

Works perfectly with my gaming setup; I haven't had an issue since installing it.

Have always been an intel guy. This. One. Owns. All. Runs very stable when maxed out at 6 gig.

This can get really heated up , i am talking about 212*F . You would definetly need to go for a AIO cooler if you are getting this one. Dont get me wrong , this is a really powerful system but gets really heated up. To deal with the temps , undervolting can be another solution

Its a beast processor, but a little hot. Like a boiling water.

I just built my new pc witt this 14900K and so far it is exceeding my expectations! No bootleg with my GPU, nothing is gling wrong so far! 10/10 would build with it again!

Pretty solid CPU. I worried about overheating due to complaints, but I'm getting 30-34 degrees Celsius while its idle and the hottest it's gotten was 38 while under load. I've got a 360mm AIO so that probably helps. If it's causing you issues, it's most likely because you need to tweak the settings on your motherboard.

It is a very good cpu that works wonders for all applications you throw at it. The only issue is that it runs a little hotter as many reviews state. I am using an ek nucleus 360, which has kept its temperature down to about 25-30 on idle. It is also a good thing to have a good AIO as air coolers are no longer capable of handling a CPU that runs this hot.b

Make sure to update your bios upon installation and configure BIOS settings correctly to ensure longevity. Great processor.

Title says it. This thing is a beast of a processor and rarely crosses 30-40% utilization, even on poorly optimized games.

Best 14th Gen CPU, super fast! Keep it cool though!

Great help from the bestbuy team choosing which cpu I need. Very easy installation and worked perfectly out the the box. Very much recommended getting this CPU either for gaming or computer engineering.

Very fast needed a good upgrade does its job very well

The i9 works good and it’s very fast and hasn’t given me any issues I ve been using it for months

I didn’t use it but it the speed is impressive according to the reviews

Perfect processor can’t complain I would recommend it

great processor. one of the best processors i've ever owned

Would definitely recommend for a pc but I recommend price matching it from Amazon since they sell it a little cheaper there.

Yaaaas so good baby. Mmmmm love my super computer for balloons tower defense 6.

14900k is among the best processors you can buy for both gaming and productivity. However, 14900k is power hungry. If you strictly use your PC for gaming, there is a cheaper more efficient “3D cache” processor from AMD that mostly meets or exceeds the gaming performance of the 14900k.

Has been good with good performance. That being said, Recent 14th gen issues cause it to get warm and micro code updates reduce performance.
