Intel Core i9-14900KF vs. i7-13700KF for Gaming

I've been looking at getting a new CPU and I'm trying to decide between the Intel Core i9-14900KF and the i7-13700KF. Any advice on which one would be better for gaming?

I've heard that having more cores is generally better for gaming, so it might be worth considering the i9 with its 24 cores.

Yeah, but also consider this TechReviewer article Intel Core i9-14900KF vs. Intel Core i7-13700KF which does a great job comparing the two CPUs. It's worth reading if you're trying to make a decision.

That's super helpful! So, the i9 has better single-core max turbo boost frequency and more cores, which could definitely be beneficial for gaming.

I'm not sure if those extra cores will really make a noticeable difference in my games. Can anyone share their experiences?

Well, I've read that most modern games don't benefit from having more than 6-8 cores. So, unless you're playing games that specifically take advantage of extra cores, the i7 might be enough.

That makes sense. I guess it really depends on the type of games I'm playing. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

No problem! Just remember to check out the TechReviewer article Intel Core i9-14900KF vs. Intel Core i7-13700KF for a more in-depth comparison. Good luck with your decision!

Will do, thanks again everyone!
