Benchmarks of Intel’s Entire 14th Gen Non-K Raptor Lake Refresh 65W Desktop CPUs Leak Out

Benchmarks of Intel's entire 14th Gen Non-K Raptor Lake Refresh desktop CPU family featuring a 65W TDP have been leaked within Geekbench.

Intel will be launching its 14th Gen Non-K CPU family codenamed "Raptor Lake Refresh" for the desktop PC platform at CES 2024. This lineup will include a huge range of chips from 65W Non-K, 35W "T" and also Non-IGPU "F" series. The lineup will mostly feature the same specs as the 13th Gen family but with a few SKU updates such as the Core i7-14700 which offers a higher number of Efficiency Cores. While we have seen many benchmarks of these chips leak out already, today we are rounding up all of the Geekbench performance scores that have publicly leaked out.

The leak covers 14th Gen Non-K 65W CPUs ranging from the Core i9-14900, Core i7-14700, Core i5-14600, Core i5-14500, Core i5-14400, & the Core i5-14100. The "F" series parts offer essentially the same performance minus the iGPU so you won't see a lot of difference there. The "T" series will feature a much lower base TDP and also a lower MTP range which should mean even lower CPU performance but in return, these chips will be perfect for low-power office, business, and Mini PCs.

Following are the test configurations used for each CPU:

So coming to the performance benchmarks, we first have the single-core results where we are looking at an average of 10% performance uplift over the 13th Gen Non-K family which is a nice increase at what should essentially be the same prices.

For multi-threaded performance, the Intel Core i9-14900 was running the "Balanced" profile so the score you are looking at here doesn't showcase its full capability. Regardless, it ended up 5% faster than the Core i9-13900. The i7-14700 is also around 5% faster but the Core i5/Core i3 parts end up anywhere from 20-30% faster than the 13th Gen chips which is a huge difference.

I checked if any of the motherboards were running a Non-K OC or base clock/power OC profile but unfortunately, the benchmark doesn't report that. Both chips were running on a proper motherboard platform versus the Intel RVP used for the Core i9 & Core i7 parts so maybe that's why their uplifts are bigger but it still doesn't explain the differences versus the 13th Gen SKUs.

Do note that these are based on the best results for the 14th Gen CPUs and the average results for the 13th Gen family so actual performance differences may end up close to 5-10%.

The Intel 14th Gen Non-K Raptor Lake Refresh Desktop CPUs will have some heated competition to tackle in the form of AMD's new Ryzen 5000 (AM4) offerings for the budget segment & Ryzen 8000 (AM5) APUs for the mainstream segment coming out in February.
