What to choose : 14700k or 14900k ?

Intel@hardware.watchEnglish · 1 year ago

Hi, I have seen some reviews and I don’t really know what to choose. It seems the 14700k run hotter but I am not sure if it is true. And is 14900k consumption is really higher in gaming ? Plus, I wonder if the APO is as good on the 14700k as 14900k ? I have no read reviews about that.

To sum up, is it worth to spend 200 dollars in addition for the 14900k ? For gaming usage, and productivity would be a bonus.

Thanks.

Faced the same choice, went for a 14700KF (have the GPU already), the price gap is not worth the 4 E cores.
