Full description and specifications

5.6GHz turbo, unlocked, twenty-eight threads — the enthusiast i7 for a high-refresh gaming build.

Quick Specs

  • 20 cores (8 P-cores + 12 E-cores) / 28 threads
  • 3.4GHz P-core base, up to 5.6GHz turbo
  • 33MB Intel Smart Cache
  • 125W base power, 253W max turbo
  • Unlocked multiplier; Intel UHD Graphics 770

Clocks where games use them

A 3.4GHz base and 5.6GHz turbo across eight Performance-cores is what makes the 14700K a high-refresh gaming chip: in CPU-limited situations — competitive shooters at 240Hz, simulation titles, anything at 1080p with a strong card — it delivers frames that locked parts can't. Twelve efficiency cores behind it mean streaming and recording run without touching the game's cores. The unlocked multiplier gives you tuning headroom on a Z790 board.

Cooling is the deciding factor

253W maximum turbo power is not a number to skim past. A 360mm AIO or a top-tier dual-tower air cooler is what this chip needs to hold its clocks; anything less and it throttles, and you've paid for performance you won't see. No cooler is included. Also weigh the alternatives: for pure gaming a Ryzen 7 9800X3D is faster and far cooler; the 14700K wins when you want gaming plus heavy multi-threaded work on one machine.

Questions

Before you buy

Which motherboards will this CPU fit?
It uses the LGA1700 socket, so it needs a motherboard with a matching socket. Sockets are not cross-compatible - a chip will not physically fit a board built for a different one. Every motherboard we list shows its socket on the Specifications tab, and it is worth checking the board maker’s support list for a BIOS update if the board is from an earlier generation than the chip.
How many cores and threads does it have?
20 cores and 28 threads. Cores do the work; threads are the number of jobs the chip can keep in flight at once. Games lean on a handful of fast cores, while rendering, compiling and video export scale with the total count.
What sort of cooler does it need?
It is rated at 125W TDP, which is the heat a cooler has to carry away under sustained load. Match or beat that figure with the cooler you choose, and check the What’s in the box list above - some processors ship with a cooler, some do not. Our PC Builder only offers coolers that fit the socket you have picked.
Do I need a separate graphics card with it?
No - this processor has integrated graphics, so it will drive a display on its own. You still want a graphics card for gaming or GPU-accelerated creative work, but the machine will boot and run without one.
Is it in stock, and when will it ship?
Yes - this one is in stock. Order before 12:00 on a working day and it ships the same day; after that it goes out the next working day. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday, so an order placed over a weekend or a public holiday ships on the next working day.
What does delivery cost, and how long does it take?
We deliver by courier anywhere in South Africa, and delivery is R180 on orders under R2 500 and free on orders of R2 500 or more. It takes 1-3 working days to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and areas within 100km of them, and 2-4 working days to areas more than 100km from a major centre, counted from the day the order is dispatched. Need it sooner? Express delivery is 1-2 working days for R210, or R150 on orders of R2 500 or more - choose it at checkout. We do not ship outside South Africa.
Can I collect instead of having it delivered?
Yes. Collection is from 11 Voortrekker Avenue, Edenvale, Gauteng, by arrangement - message us first so we can have the order picked and waiting. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday.
What warranty does it carry, and how do I claim?
The warranty period for this product is listed at the end of the Specifications section above. Claims go through us, not the manufacturer - contact us with your order number and a description of the fault and we will handle it from there. Separately from any warranty, the Consumer Protection Act gives you six months from delivery to return goods that are defective, unsafe or not fit for their intended purpose.
What if I change my mind?
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind - longer than the seven days the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act requires. The item needs to be unused and in its original packaging, and we pay the return shipping. Refunds go back to the payment method you used, within 30 days of the return reaching us.
How can I pay?
Payments are processed by Stitch. At the last step of checkout you are taken to Stitch’s secure page to pay, and brought back here once it is done. Your card details are entered on Stitch’s secure, PCI-compliant page and never touch our systems.
