Intel Core i5-14400F

Released Jan 8, 2024$196 launch priceDesktop Processor

The same 6P+4E Raptor Lake Refresh die as the i5-14400 with the integrated graphics disabled, sold for less and aimed at builds that already have a discrete GPU. It shares its socket, clocks and power limits with the rest of Intel's outgoing LGA1700 non-K lineup.

Pros

  • 10 cores (6P+4E) and 16 threads with a 4.7 GHz P-core boost for about $196 at launch, cheaper than the otherwise identical i5-14400
  • 148 W maximum turbo power is easy to cool on air, and Intel ships the Laminar RM1 cooler in the box
  • 20 PCIe lanes with PCIe 5.0 support and DDR4 or DDR5 memory compatibility keep upgrade paths open
  • In review testing, its Cinebench R23 multi-core score lands close to six-core Ryzen chips from the previous generation
  • Works on inexpensive H610 and B660 motherboards, keeping total platform cost down

Cons

  • No integrated graphics at all, so a failed or missing discrete GPU leaves the system with no display output
  • Falls under Intel's stability advisory for 13th/14th-gen desktop chips rated 65 W and up, so a used unit should be checked for current microcode
  • Locked multiplier, with no core overclocking headroom
  • LGA1700 is Intel's last socket before LGA1851, so there is no future CPU upgrade path
