Intel Core i7-14700F Processor
20 Cores | 28 Threads | Max. Boost Clock Up To 5.4 GHz | Intel LGA1700 Socket
20 cores at a non-K price? Say less. The Core i7-14700F gives you the same 20-core, 28-thread hybrid design as the 14700K (8 P-cores plus 12 E-cores), with a max turbo of 5.4GHz. It drops the integrated graphics and overclocking to save you serious cash.
It's a perfect match for a B760 board and a strong graphics card. You get high-FPS gaming, smooth streaming and real muscle for editing and rendering, with 33MB of Smart Cache under the hood.
The 65W base power makes it easy to live with. Under heavy all-core loads it can turbo up to 219W, so a good 240mm AIO or a big dual-tower air cooler is the way to go.
Best for: Value high-performance gaming builds with a dedicated GPU, plus streaming and creative work.
Platform and compatibility
It uses the Intel LGA1700 socket and works with H610, B660, B760, H670, Z690, H770 or Z790 motherboards. LGA1700 supports both DDR4 and DDR5 boards, so you can build cheap now or go all-in on DDR5.

Frequently asked questions
Does the i7-14700F need a graphics card?
Yes. There are no integrated graphics, so a dedicated GPU is required for display output.
i7-14700F or i7-14700?
Same cores and clocks. The non-F version adds UHD Graphics 770, which is useful for Quick Sync encoding or running without a GPU. The F is cheaper.
Which motherboard is best?
A B760 DDR5 board is the value pick. Z790 only matters if you want premium features, because the F chip can't be overclocked anyway.
Which motherboard is compatible?
Any LGA1700 board: H610, B660, B760, Z690 or Z790. 600-series boards may need a BIOS update for 13th and 14th Gen chips. Pick a DDR4 or a DDR5 board. They aren't interchangeable.
What RAM should I use?
Either DDR4 or DDR5, depending on the motherboard you pick. DDR5-6000 is the performance choice, while DDR4-3200 keeps budget builds cheap.
