With the announcement of the fourteenth generation of Intel Core processors and after our analysis of the Intel Core i5-14600K, a performance test of the non-K version of the same model has leaked. Intel Core i5-14600next to Core i3-14100.

The Intel Core i5-14600 will have six high-performance cores and eight efficient cores, which would provide a total of twenty threads, since only the high-performance cores support Hyper-Threading, thus providing two threads each. It would run at a base frequency of 2.7 GHz, with a turbo speed of 5.2 GHz, it would implement a total of 20 MB of level 2 cache, 24 MB of level 3 cache, and its TPD would be 65 watts. Its price for the United States is expected to be around $255.

The Intel Core i3-14100 will feature only four high-performance cores that provide a total of eight threads through Hyper-Threading. It runs at a base frequency of 3.5 GHz, a peak speed of 4.7 GHz, its TDP is 60 watts, and on the cache level it would have 5 MB on level 2 and 12 MB on level 3. Estimates suggest that it would be priced around 109 dollars.

The performance tests come from ECMS (Enthusiast Citizen), they were done using Geekbench 6 and you can see that The Intel Core i5-14600 scored 2,785 in single-core and 16,110 in multi-coreMeanwhile he The Intel Core i3-14100 scored 2,509 and 8,881 respectively. The top model practically follows the Ryzen 9 7900X3D and falls short of the Core i7-13700K and Core i5-14600K in a single core, while it is able to overtake the Ryzen 7 7800X3D in multi-core.

These data show that The Intel Core i5-14600 is 15% faster in single-core and 29% more powerful in multi-core than the Core i5-13600, and the Intel Core i3-14100 is 12% faster in single-core and 23% more powerful in multi-core than the Core i3-13100. From what can be seen, both models promise a noticeable improvement.

When it comes to the performance of the processors listed in this post, it should be taken into account that the hardware has been quite extensive for years, so it is important to choose the right one for the context to be covered. The Intel Core i5-14600 is a model that aims to be extremely adequate for the vast majority of contexts and regular users.
