7:55 Don't forget to remove the plastic over the thermal pad on the ssd heatsink.
lol I saw that as well!
its scares me that how this big channels give out information without them being knowing much themselves
if he puts the m.2 above the gpu wont that make it go from 16x to 8x and have the gpu run slower and not to the full potential?
Including how much power draw during those test would appreciated, it allow us to see whether it's worth it or not from every angle.
Literally no one cares how much power is drawn from a desktop CPU, if you were talking about mobile chips you would have an argument. The only reason power is constantly bought up is the levels of desperation AMD fanboi's have to stoop to find specs that are competitive.
@@ads3453 Do you even know the reason behind that suggestion ? and i'm using i9 13900k by the way in addition living in a country where electricity price are cheap, so your statement are useless.
@magtral You have just stated that your power is cheap yet you still think whining about power levels is legitimate ??? Power draw is a tiny consideration even for people in countries where electricity is expensive as you only have the PC on for a limited period of time.
@@ads3453 Still haven't figured out why i suggest those test result to be included, even after i told you my current processor that i used ? yet kept on talking about power draw. Better stop this conversation before you embarassing yourself further ( you've already made baseless accusations in your first reply without knowing what setup i used and what i use it for ), i gave you another hint, at least 2 of my pc always on 24/7.
@@ads3453 No one care ? dude you better stop making this baseless assumption by saying he/she a fanboi without even knowing the setup he/she are using. I'm running internet cafe with 30 pc in it and at least half of it always on. So power draw it's big matter whenever i decide to upgrade those pc or not. I don't care if it's intel or amd as long it can fit my need.
Did you populate the M2_1 slot? As I'm sure you know, that shares lanes with the GPU slot, so you are effectively slowing down your GPU
LOL.
Why did you not add the results from the 7800X3D to the tests?
At least for the gaming Benchmarks considering this is the best AMD CPU?
You added the 7900x 7700x and 7600x which are all markedly inferior for gaming?
Where did the 7800x3d go on the gaming benchmarks?
I’ve completed my build and I’m using a temp GPU so I can least download and get everything setup but I’m currently saving up for the XFX RX6950 XT
i got this card an its a beast for 1440p but 7800xt might also be a good buy for cheaper
Can you put the 4tb ssd with the heatsink in will it fit?
what are your thoughts on the asus rog z790 a gaming motherboard for intel 14th gen? I just purchased the new one. Building an all white build and it was the only white one they offered besides the formula, which I thought was overkill.
What liquid cooler would you recommend? You mentioned maybe the 360 cooler might not have been enough for the 14900k. I understand you cant pin point that exactly, but I value your opinion. Just purchased a 4090 and 14900k and I was gonna get the NZXT Kraken Elite 360 cooler. Please let me know as soon as possible. Thanks in advance!
As someone who built their first one yesterday, I’d recommend just making sure if you get the same brand fans. The kraken from what I can tell is basically top of the line with a few others. I accidentally got lian li fans and a Corsair aio. The problem I had was my mobo had only 2 usb 2.0 internal headers. The aio has an lcd which plugged into one of the usb headers and then the commander to control the fans/rgb also plugged into one. So then your left with another set of fans whose commander will have nowhere to plug in. They do make expansions which you can use to add another header or just get the same brand in the first place lol.
But yeah the kraken is a really good option.
my mother board has more slots. My plan is to get the kraken aio 360 and then 10 lian li infinity fans. Just wasnt sure if a 420 aio is a better move. Going to research some. Thanks for the response@@Jnt710
Question for the experts: Is the Corsair iCUE H150i suitable for the i9 14900k?
How much is this whole build?
Thank you for the benchmarks as now we know that the 14th gen is very similar to the 13th gen.
its same kekw 5 fps
@@TheNobleBlueHorizon-64 and the 7800x3d gives the same performance for 100 dollars less
@@TheNobleBlueHorizon-64 As there is no overclocking on the 7800X3D it is pointless to go with a X670 IMO. You could get the same performance out of a B650 and only spend 150 or less if you want to go micro atx.
@@Gantali9305what is the best mobo for 7800x3d + rtx 4080
How does the 13900KS compare to 14900K?
I am confused, why would you pick 13900k over 14900k? when 1. 14900k is clearly better CPU, 2. it is the best CPU on the platform and will hold it's value longer, 3. costs approximately the same (30$ difference on Newegg).
Paid by intel ?
@@partyboy1076 of course
Power draw (cost to run) vs performance output. 14900k is basically the 3090ti of cpus. Its not an improvement efficiency wise, but rather just throwing more power at binned chips and marketing them as new.
@@daniil3815 Just don't buy an intel 13th gen OR 14th gen lmao, both are on a dead platform, 15th gen is gonna be on a new one.
@@JustNotIt9927 I know. but some people building PC now and cannot wait
Do I need a 1200W PSU or do you think a 1000W PSU will handle a 4090 and 14900k just fine?
1000 watt will be fine even if you overclock both the cpu and gpu. Just don't heavily overclock both, like a 20 to 25% overclock because you might need 1200 wat and a extremely, insanely beefy cpu cooler for that. 4090 cooler is already completely nuts. And the cooler is already in the graphics card itself when you buy it. In short, just don't overclock beyond 20 to 25% and 1000 watts will be enough. Your psu would have around 90% load, which is totally fine and normal.
I like that case, the build looks really Nice
Kunnen wij de 14900K CPU ook op lucht cooling draaien?
Would not recommend
Mine is two days away along with everything else needed for my upgrade build, only thing I’m still waiting to buy is graphic card … I am very torn between 7900XTX or 4090
The question is do you want to spend basically 700 more for a little bit better performance, do you play at 4k? If not definitely just get the xtx it’s what I did
@@illumitiDash I will be playing 4k, my current system is way out of date and I play primarily single player games so I want the eye candy more than super high fps
@@aron6998 if your playing 4k then the 4090 is going to give you better frames at 4k then the 4080 and the xtx although like I said it’s going to be at least 6-7 hundred dollars more and you have to keep in mind the xtx and 4080 are still going to give you above 60 frames in basically every game at 4k so you just gotta decide if it’s worth the price for a 4090
@@illumitiDash yeah honestly money isn’t that big of a deal to me I honestly just despise the nvidia tax but I do keep going back and looking at the Strix 4090
@@aron6998 yea that was part of the reason I went with the xtx I didn’t want to pay to support nvidias monopoly on the high end market
I guess i missed what he was able to push the ram too =(
Why are AMD's 3D cache models not on the benchmarks? Missing form the gaming tests!!!!
How does it compare to 13900KS???
I’ve had the choice this week. Went with the i9 14900k over anything else. Been wanting the intel flagship for quite some years.
Together with a 4080 gigabytes aero and 64 gigs of DDR5 im confident the pc will be great fun
I got the 14700k and 32 gb ddr5 and tuf 4080 and I’m getting 130-165 fps no dlss on warzone on my Alienware ultra wide oled
Also settings are maxed right out
My boy, I hate to break it to you, but you should have probably gone AMD. Now I personally run an i9 14900k, so I really like Intel, but I'm also starting to regret it, LGA1700 is a DEAD platform, Intel is killing it, the 15th gen is gonna be on a different platform. AMD on the other hand is gonna be supporting AM5 until 2026 I think.
Going the same route but with a 4070! Wasn’t expecting to make a new build, but I also didn’t want the bottle neck that would come with a 9th gen i5
@@ItzMojoBear I got a z690 and ya I had to update bios for 14 th gen went from 12700k to 14
INTEL: "Hey Geek! We'll give you the new 14th gen I5 & I9 for review/keep. If you don't compare our chips to the AMD's X3D line up!"
這兩個搭一起根本耗電巨獸，夏天等於開兩台冷氣
is it okay to play on 1440p with a rtx 4090?
The 4090 would handle 1440p with no problem, as it seems to hold its own in 4K. However, if you're only playing 1440p. maybe consider a 4070 Ti Super, or 4080 Super instead of the 2K 4090..
@@jxshlee1896 It always comes down to money, I'd say. I recently built an i9-14900k + 4090 system and while it maxes out at my 1440 monitor's 144 fps for pretty much everything, there are exceptions. Enshrouded comes to mind, where it can at times even dip below 100. If that's already happening today, at 1440, I don't feel I made a bad choice overpaying for a 4090.
m.2 with plastic wrap over thermal pads nice
Me after grinding college apps and realizing something in the world changed 😅
Z890??
when will the i11 processor gonna be released? asking for a friend... ahahahahahah
yooooo 14th gen released??
Yup, from 17th of October
Does any TH-camr build anything other than top of the line CPU and GPU combos? 😂
Do you think the 4090 will come down much in price when 50 series is released?
it would certainly go down but not immediatly
previous gen gpus always go down at some point
How much do we think 50 series will cost, like say the 5090?
@ashwarrn maybe around $2000, but we need to see what it has to offer first
When does the 50 series set to release
nice i just bought a i5 13th gen and this drops fml
Lmao😂😂😂😂 Ya'll didn't notice that his last few test comparing the dfiferefps in games that he didn't include the Ryzen 7 7800x3D chips or any of the x3D chips. 🤔 I think we know why.
True. X3d best of 14 gen intel
@@ch555xuser The 7 7800x3D beats it in most games still and it cost way less and not power hungry.
@@HiQualityH2Obut it also has frequent dips in fps, which is where intel wins with stability. Otherwise, you’re right ryzen is cheaper and way less power hungry.
@@HiQualityH2Oamd in general is ass they drivers suck and frequently cause issues and can't stably run external core injection programs😂
@@marinesole2 gaming wise they are the best. X3d smoking everything and cool temps
When am I gonna see a 7950x3d and 4090 build?
Thing is intel is sponsoring all these big youtubers thats why every one is building with it amd is the clear winner is cpu and intel is aware so they are buying out all these youtubers wich is why ur prob not gonna see a amd build anytime soon.
@@snaggy1212 Well, with AMD rising up and beating out Nvidia in GPU price to preformance and Intel in CPU price to preformance, they have been and still will make more money as time goes on and they might be soon be sponsoring TH-camrs like Intel does. If they do, they'll most likely do it more because of how much more money they're making. So I think I will see a 7950X3D build with the RTX 4090 soon but those are just my thoughts and not everyone is correct.
I would go for MSI MAG Z790 Instead of this motherboard, better value lmao
Is it worth upgrading from 12 gen intel to 14th gen intel?
Nah. u are good if u a have i7 or i9
generally yes, since you don't have to change platform, ram, etc. But also depends what is your current CPU+GPU combo is. if your GPU is a bottleneck, then CPU upgrade won't change anything.
I have a 11th Gen. I will be upgrading to the 14900K for sure
@@Cloudybox12 nice upgrade. Hopefully you have a nice GPU to work with such great CPU.
@@daniil3815 4090
What fans did he get
Thank you for NOT adding x3D chips in the comparison charts. Those chips perform voodoo magic in particular games and skew the average results.
Why is there no x3d chips in the gaming fps stats ? Does rhe x3d embarrass the 14900k that much 😂😂😂
Was wondering if this pc build is worth for 4k dollars (This is based on EU prices, which do tend to be higher than in the US, and full price, so with no discounts):
CPU: Intel Core i9-13900KF 3 GHz 24-Core Processor
CPU Cooler: NZXT Kraken Elite 360 RGB 78.02 CFM Liquid

RAM: TEAMGROUP T-Force Delta RGB 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5-6000 CL30 Memory
Storage: Samsung 990 Pro 2 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive x2
GPU: Sapphire PULSE Radeon RX 7900 XTX 24 GB Video Card
Case: NZXT H9 Flow ATX Mid Tower
PSU: SeaSonic PRIME TX-1000 1000 W 80+ Titanium Certified Fully Modular ATX
Fans: Corsair LL120 43.25 CFM 120 mm Fans 3-Pack x2
Corsair LL140 51.5 CFM 140 mm Fan
Extra: RGB Cable extensions
This would be my first ever build, but not sure if I could make improvements. I'm going for 1440 gaming for more competitive games (like Apex) and 4k gaming for singleplayers and other non-competitive games (like Elden Ring/ Cyberpunk). I'll have a 1440 monitor and a 4k monitor.
Solid build, Not sure about 4K, but it's nice. Air cooled 12900KF with a TR Phantom Spirit 120. Have a 7900XTX (Merc one) and it's great card. You're probably spending a lot on case and fans, though I'm not sure if you want to substitute there cheaper case/fans or just go for it. 7900XTX is huge, mine did fit in an existing case but the size of the larger cards limits the case selection also.
@@dianaalyssa8726 Tyvm for the feedback. ^^
Case and fans is mostly for looks and how it fits + airflow seemed nice. xD
I used pcpartpicker for compatibility and made sure to check the Case and GPU's dimensions to make sure it fits.
$4k is my budget so almost got me there, slightly less. Hopefully there are discounts that can make it cheaper, but will see. :)
Not sure how accurate benchmarks and fps calculators are, but it seemed enough for most singleplayer games at 4k, although not at ultra settings. But High/Medium seems good enough to hit above 80fps.
i'll stick to my i7-12700K, decent enough
it is, and you can upgrade to 14900k when it will be on a good sale (when 15th gen releases)
Intel says its not about performance but about power efficiency if we compare that it can be a better option for upgrading from 12th gen but from 13th gen it isn't a big lap
asus tuf motherboard not have wifi 7 and not have for m.2 pcie5.0 not recomendet , also asus tuf case nothing good ' nzxt psu not suport for 4 series video card not pcie 5.0 conector ,also not recomendet ;
No good value with just 8 p cores. We need 16 p cores minimum.
Is it worth upgrading from a i9 9900k
almost anything from the past couple of generation of intel apart from i3s and all of amd's 7000 series would be a huge upgrade from the 9900k
@@mrswagboss ohh alright thanks man
it is worth it. 9900k is relatively old, if you want to have i-9 experience again, then upgrade.
7800X3D go bbrrrrrrrr
Yes guessing thats why he didn't include it in the Benchmarks :)
right now the 1490 is cheaper than the 1390ks
where are the x3d chip benchmarks that destroys the intel's whole lineup
I’m clueless rn😢
clueless what to buy? what is your budget, GPU etc?
@@daniil3815 i was planning to buy the ryzen 5 5600x3d with the rx 6750xt. My budget is 1.1k.
@@daniil3815I’m still learning about pc stuff and builds but my brother bought me a 4090 😮 and told me build the rest …. Now what ? Lmao (doing research on what to really do next) and as far a budget .. I’d want the best stuff so I won’t have to upgrade for a long time. I’m not rich but I’m sure not poor 🤡🥸
No one people who are waste in electricity 😂 just we Pick Up AMD
HOW INTEL STOLE $285 from me? I bought an open box Core i9 from the largest vendor in the US and maybe the world. The CPU did not work so I sent it to Intel for warranty repair or replace because the model itself was less than a year old so it must be under warranty. Open box and demo units are treated like new by manufacturers regarding warranty. Intel told me that the CPU was not genuine and refused to return it. The vendor said they will refund me if I send the CPU back. Intel refused. So Intel, the crook, & the vendor profited and the victim paid the price.
Later I found out that CPU lids can be swapped as long as they are the same socket. So if you have a dead Celeron lid swapped with a new i9 lid, then return the dead Celeron for an i9 refund and keep the i9 CPU. That is a serious design flaw that Intel should pay for not the victims. Intel have not changed the flawed design on their latest models.
Cache has no use or meaning when gaming, nor core count, it's been established that speed is still KING, which Intel is ridiculously good at it, you overclock any of them pass 5.0GHz, and it's better at gaming than the mediocre competition. Needless to say that with an Intel, you can use high Vc, and no issues, just keeping it cool, just keeping it cool!!! My 12600K, 5.2GHz for two years now.....or 5.1? Something like that.
Def buying a 13900K over the 14th Gen.
@@daniil3815 I would wait for a significant sale on the 13900K and go with that. (Like a $150 off sale) that’s all I was saying.
@@maynardmiller7663 that was unclear that you will be waiting for 150$ discount. Not sure how long you will have to wait though. It might take a while. As of right now, I don’t see a reason to buy 13900k, price is way too close to 14900k.
Bro I just upgraded to 13700K 😢 Nevermind I just finished video and the differences are not huge
It depends on the end-use, though. Gaming? Not so different from the 13700K. Productivity? There is "some" performance boost in general thanks to the extra e-cores, at the cost of higher power consumption, but unless you're trying to maximize your workflow, the 13700K is still a decent option.
no diff same thing, just cores but thats pretty much useless for the average consumer
@@djGLCKRIt's mostly for gaming and sometimes I edit my gaming footages in 4k. In about 5 years I can upgrade again 😂
@@FenderJaguar66 For your use case scenario, you're set to play the waiting game for even longer, unless there's a massive jump in processing power in the next 5-6 years.
if I remember correctly 13700k was on a nice sale recently.

I am a loser ❤u not
The 14th gen cpu's are a joke and are not even worth noticing their existance. The new motherboards have some nice and interesting new tech which I always love to see. Idk how Asus boards don't have 65watt to 100watt USB-C fast charging considering a lot of their products do but I guess they will on next years models? I mean Asus rog strix product buyers generally stick to buying only Asus rog strix stuff so they will likely own the rog phones or the rog Ally and will need 65+ watt fast charging right? idk thoughts
short answer to the title: no just get 13900k
expect the 14700k
Everybody knows it's not worth it, so why even bother making this video with such a cringy thumbnail. It's painfully obvious that 14th gen is a con.
