I've been trying to decide between the Intel Core i9-14900KF and Core i9-12900KF for my next build. One thing that's got me stumped is how they compare in terms of graphics performance. Can anyone help me out with this?

I don't think you need to worry too much about the integrated graphics performance since both have good GPUs, but it might be worth checking out a TechReviewer article Intel Core i9-14900KF vs. Intel Core i9-12900KF for more in-depth details.
Thanks @coldblow85, I'll definitely check that out. Just as an FYI, my main use case would be gaming and some video editing. Do you think the integrated graphics on either CPU will be enough for those tasks?
I've used both CPUs for gaming and found that they perform similarly in most games. However, if you're looking for a bit more performance, I'd recommend going with the Core i9-14900KF. It has better core types, core counts, L3 cache, single-core turbo frequency, P-Core Turbo Frequency, overclocking support, DDR5 max stock speed support, PCIe 5.0 support, and overall gaming, general app, and professional tool usage.
@logikapp, I recently switched to the Core i9-14900KF for my build, and it's been a game-changer in terms of graphics performance. The TechReviewer article Intel Core i9-14900KF vs. Intel Core i9-12900KF really helped me make my decision. I found that the 14900KF has better integrated graphics, which was crucial for my gaming setup.
Great to know, @jonnybravo76. I'm leaning towards the Core i9-14900KF now. Thanks a lot to everyone for their input!
No problem, @logikapp! Good luck with your build and remember that you can always tweak settings to optimize performance if needed.
I agree with @coldblow85. Just make sure you have a good cooling solution and don't forget about the importance of a quality power supply. Happy building!
