Share the Load
A processor that shares the workload and wins the battle.
Our Intel® Core™ processor (14th Gen)1 teams together our Performance-cores and Efficient-cores. P-cores handle the boss-level tasks, like gameplay, animating, editing and filmmaking. E-cores cover you by picking off the smaller tasks in the background. And Intel® Thread Director2, intelligently shares your workloads to the correct core, so you’ll always feel the power in your hands in every task you take on. Welcome to next level multitasking.
See the Difference Speed Makes
Fast forward to victory.
The power to keep up with the most demanding gameplay. The Intel® Core™ desktop processor (14th Gen) has gone one step further in performance to make the most CPU-intensive titles a sprint—no matter what you’re running in the background.
Best of All Worlds
More multitasking to let you do more of what you want.
Hyper-threading and 32 threads mean you can rush, while you stream, while you cut, while you mix, while you watch—always balancing workload and performance. It’s the edge you’ve always needed to take on more tasks. And thanks to Intel® Turbo Boost Max 3.0 technology, the most suitable P-core will always be selected for your task. So, you can keep performing, exactly when you need to.
No More Ping
Don’t let anything get in the way of your game.
Dedicated high-speed channels help remove legacy interference and congestion, making ping a thing of the past.
Powerful Performance
More speed for more gaming power.
We upped the power to up your performance. Uniting an Intel® Thermal Velocity Boost Frequency of up to 6.0 GHz, unreal gameplay, fast memory speeds, non-existent load times and up to 36 MB of Intel® Smart Cache. It’s a silicon potion ready to increase your gaming power.
Winning Wi-Fi
No more ping or ports. Just gaming-grade wireless.
Feel the power of a triple threat. Three times faster connectivity3, ultra-low latency and optimal networking, give you the freedom to tackle your workload without fear of lag. All thanks to Intel Wi-Fi 7 (5 Gig) and Killer™ Wi-Fi 6E (Gig+).
It’s Time to Overclock
Make the upgrades to up your performance.
Overclocking4 is the power to get more from your CPU. Supercharging your top clock speed to higher than its own factory limits, squeezing more performance from the same silicon, and giving you the freedom (and tools) to think “outside of the box settings”. Custom controls give you access to fine tuning, letting you mold your CPU to the point where it feels like it was built for you.
Unlocking’s easy. When you have the right set of keys.
- Intel® Extreme Tuning Utility (Intel® XTU) puts the outer limits of PC performance in reach of all, by bringing overclocking out of the BIOS and into Windows.
- Intel® XTU also gives you super granular core-by-core control, unlocking new possibilities.
- Intel® XTU features Intel® Speed Optimizer, this feature enabled within Intel Extreme Tuning Utility is designed to simplify overclocking. Intel® ISO changes the P-core and E-core frequency, voltage, and other parameters automatically.
- Intel® Dynamic Memory Boost and Real-Time Memory OC support take the guesswork out of memory overclocking, opening access to amazingly fast, more immersive gameplay through DDR5 and DDR4 memory.
Ramp Up Gameplay
Step inside the game.
Thanks to support for DDR5, up to 5600 MHz and support for 16 lanes of PCIe Gen 5, delivering more bandwidth than its Gen 4 equivalent—Intel® Core™ desktop processors (14th Gen) is designed ready for the fastest, smoothest, richest way to play.

Product and Performance Information
Performance hybrid architecture combines two core microarchitectures, Performance-cores (P-cores) and Efficient-cores (E-cores), on a single processor. Select 13th Gen Intel® Core™ processors do not have performance hybrid architecture, only P-cores, and have same cache size as prior generation; see ark.intel.com for SKU details.
Built into the hardware, Intel® Thread Director is provided only in performance hybrid architecture configurations of newer Intel® Core™ Ultra processors; OS enablement is required. Available features and functionality vary by OS.
Nearly 3x faster Wi-Fi connectivity versus standard Wi-Fi. See intel.com/PerformanceIndex (connectivity) for details. Results may vary.
Unlocked features are present with select chipsets and processor combinations. Altering clock frequency or voltage may damage or reduce the useful life of the processor and other system components and may reduce system stability and performance. Product warranties may not apply if the processor is operated beyond its specifications. Check with the manufacturers of system and components for additional details.
