13600KS 😂 Let's go

[@milos-7712]

This is actually excellent news. Been planning to get the 13600k for a while now, so the price cut (if retailers actually decide to lower the price of gen. 13) is awesome!

[@fahianhaque4413]

Hopefully

[@_B.C_]

Microcenter had the 13600k on sale for $250 the weekend the 7800X3D came out. Microcenter also had (and occasionally still offers) a $25 off 1cpu per household. So I was able to pick one up this year for $225 + tax and a drive to microcenter. Hope this helps you gauge good deals in your area.

[@milos-7712]

[@_B.C_]

I was more interested in the 14500 or 14400 for this generation for a barebones Asrock deskmeet b660. I was also hoping they would make the 14100 a 4p + 4e core configuration and finally ditch the 4 core entry chip.

[@williammathies2998]

Thanks!

[@theTechNotice]

Thank yoU!

[@drycin]

Was thinking of possibly doing the 14700k, but after these reviews I think I will stick with the 13700k and hopefully get some of those saving (if the price drops).

[@JayzBeerz]

looks like the 14700K is starting to drop. newegg has it for a lower price than the 13700K.

[@groenevinger3893]

As a 13900k owner is support your standpoint 😁

[@baekmedier]

@@groenevinger3893 they look almost the same i Think… but surely there must be some sort of benefit of the new 14th gen.

[@Dex4Sure]

@@baekmedier there is not. its raptor lake just like 13th gen. 13900ks is higher binned than 14900k, so if one wants max overclocks 13900ks is still better. 14900k has on average bit better silicon quality than 13900k (not 13900ks).

[@fteoOpty64]

Love the two sides of you!. Yes, it DOES!.

[@jibreelhughes]

Think I'll probably just wait for 15th gen to upgrade from my 12900KS.

[@tamothar]

Me too

[@howtopassthat]

in my opinion, I think the 18th gen would be the perfect time to upgrade or less depending on the circumstances even then your 12900K would still be good right now a lot of people don't understand how powerful are the 8th to 10th gen CPUs to 12th gen CPU people who have gotten addicted to upgrading sometimes when it's not even necessary or maybe because I am not yet in that level, right now I am using an i5 2400 paired with 16 GB RAM 240SSD with no dedicated GPU because GPUs are too expensive and have no issues, of course, I can't do much heavy video editing or animating or any other heavy program but good enough for what I do and it does it very well with modern software and tools I only upgraded to 16GB ram from 8GB DDR 3 and I have seen noticeable improvements in building a complex web application, for my next upgrade I am eyeing at the 13th gen probably an i5 or i7 or equvalent AMD counterparts paired with RTX 4080 if possible then stick to that until it can't anymore lmo people at the comments wanting to upgrade from 12th gen to 14th gen or 11th gen when it's not even necessary btw I would have upgraded a long time ago probably a 10th to 12gen or just an office desktop and upgraded into a gaming one but it's just that PC hardware is way too expensive it's just ridiculous especially if you live in a third-world country where prices for this hardware are equivalent to first world nation prices but low wages and very high taxes paying $300 for i5 13600K is like paying $900 or more just for a CPU alone 😔

[@6XCcustom]

intel gen 15 will be gen 13+++++++ they are once again stuck in the loop

[@1SaG]

Coming from a 12600K, I was expecting this to come down to a difference in price. But seeing how close performance is between the two gens, I'm not even sure I'd need 14th gen. The meaningful uplift clearly happens between 12th and 13th. I was eyeing the 13- or 14700K/KF as a replacement, but I think I'll stick with a 600-series CPU for now. Don't want to have to upgrade my 240mm Lian Li AiO which is just over a year old. Anyway: Currently I could get a 13600 KF for around €310 while the 14600KF is €318. With that small of a price difference, I don't see any reason not to go "14th" gen. Already checked my motherboard's specs and apparently it does support 14th as well as 13th gen. I should probably wait a bit to see if 13th gen prices will drop a bit more, but I reckon there's probably a lot of folks like me out there hoping for the same thing. And seeing how there's very little difference in performance between 13 and 14, I doubt 13 prices will fall dramatically.

[@nicola783]

exact same story but only coming from i5-8500xddddd

[@aelaan12]

The only question that keeps going through my mind is: What if Intel did want to upgrade the dye and socket, but they were unable to get the supply and had to decide to, at least for the sake of new numbers, bring out the 14th series as consumers expect.

[@SpoonHurler]

That mindset is what allowed AMD to capture so much market share in the past.

[@DailyCorvid]

I think it also has a lot of security fixes as well, which I can tell you - you are going to NEED. Things that prevent people interfering with your PC and the flow of data without you knowing. Parts sourced out of Communist China with any luck are coming from Malay and Taiwan instead.

[@nadtz]

For as long as there has been information on 14th nd 15th gen 14th was always going to be socket 1700 and 15th will be an updated (possibly 1851) socket for Arrow Lake.

[@davidg5898]

Too bad. I was hoping to see an IPC improvement greater than just a few percent. I was hoping to upgrade my main system to a 14700K and move my current CPU into my VM/NAS homelab box. I think I'm instead just going to wait for 14th gen to push 13th gen prices down a bit and maybe get a 13500 for the homelab system and keep my main system as is.

[@slerpn]

I pre ordered the 14700k yesterday! I got it for $419.99

[@tommaso.mp4]

Guess i made a good choice buying the i17 13700k at 390€ last week (which is around 340£ i guess?) I knew the 14700k was coming with 4 more eCores but since i'm on a budget I'm so glad I bought it!

[@Ivan-pi6ur]

Th eone thing I like abour 14th gen is that 13th gen would be cheaper sooner, hopefully to the point where i7 13th gen could fit on my budget

[@penonton4260]

cheaper ? are you drunk? in my country because of the weak performance of the 14th gen Intel. the prices of 13th gen Intel and AMD have gone up ~ (Ryzen 7000 series increase $30+ 🗿)

[@ashamancito4630]

Ill take the price cuts of the 13600k, though I am holding my horses on that, until they actually set in. If they set in, I will probably upgrade my 12400.

[@JKPOrigins]

Currently on a 12900, not the K version. Wondering if I should get the 14900K instead of a 13900K… hmmmmmm

Am too late here. Please help me choose between 7600x or 13600k.. Currently using 3600x with 64 gb ddr4 ram. Should i upgrade to 7600x or 7700x? Considering the cost coz i already have ddr 4 sticks so should i upgrade to i5? Pc mostly used for 3d rendering and some casual gaming.

[@navpreetsingh8156]

in short buy 13th gen, this new gen is a waste of time its basically the same using the same power virtually same performance but costs more, I dont understand the point of it

[@johnbernhardtsen3008]

Not so sure, the only upgrade would be the Intel XE core utility, getting a 12600k sooner than later! I got an A750 gpu in spare!bought a 11600k for my nephew for his upgrade from I5 7600!the 13th gen still runs hot with semi expensive cpu coolers, not at least the power draw!

[@SpoonHurler]

14700k is the only one that interesting but even it mught be the second choice behind a 13900k if they are priced closely. They didn't even give use 6 core 14100... this whole stack is a waste of marketing.

[@johnbernhardtsen3008]

wut?another 4core waste?if they even bothered making their smallest cpu 6 cores, they would dominate the gaming market! @@SpoonHurler

[@SpoonHurler]

@@johnbernhardtsen3008 Yeah... even if they made the 14100 4p4e for under 130 usd they'd own the budget market but I guess they want to squeeze every cent out of the market

could the 14600k work on a B760M PG LIGHTNING WIFI ?

[@Trollcito]

En resumen el 14600k es como un "13600KS", osea le añadieron un poco más de frecuencia (100-200MHz) y ya está luego es prácticamente todo lo mismo, pero es bueno en cierta parte por el precio que practicamente los mismo que la 13Gen

[@BaieDesBaies]

Isn't the 14600K just an overclocked 13600K ?

[@BaieDesBaies]

@@unimpressively_charming I just wonder if we can get the 14600K perfs with a 13600K overclocked to 14600K power consumption.

[@pinaboytoons]

The link for the ram is the same as the motherboard

[@oktc68]

Given that the 13600k will happily run at 5.8GHz all P cores, at fixed frequency i suspect that the 14600k is equally capable. Maybe Intel should have called the latest generation 13600k Super? Whatever still a solid CPU, and if it means a price drop for the 13600k then go buy one.

[@Hencules]

Didn’t they say they gonn rid of the i5, i7, i9 branding?

they are moving to "ultra" branding with the next socket... hopefully 15th gen for desktop but who knows at this point.

All good choices but I personally wouldn't pick an expensive cpu to pair it with a 3060. Gpu lke a 4070 would be a better combo with a cheaper cpu. Even the 7600 is a very nice one..just buy good 6ghz memory for it.
