According to AnandTech , the Intel Core i9-14900KS CPU was overclocked by an elite team of overclocking experts from ASUS to achieve an incredible speed of 9.1 GHz, setting a new world record. The ASUS ROG Maximus Z790 Apex Encore motherboard served as the foundation for this historic feat, under the guidance of overclocking experts Elmor, SkatterBencher, Shaamino, and Safedisk.
Four records were simultaneously set by the ASUS overclocking team.
Elmor, who joined the ASUS team, pushed the CPU clock speed to an impressive 9,117.75 MHz, while Safedisk set three more world records in benchmark tests. Note that this is an official record, unlike the previous unofficial record which also saw the Intel chip reach speeds of up to 9.1 GHz. The CPU's performance was further enhanced by liquid helium cooling, maintaining a temperature of -231°C and a voltage of 1.85V.
The Intel Core i9-14900KS is known to be a CPU with 24 cores and 32 threads, distributed between 8 P cores and 16 E cores, similar to its predecessors, the Core i9-14900K and Core i9-14900KF. However, it's the clock speed that makes the K variant different, with a base clock speed of 6.2 GHz that can be boosted, although Intel acknowledges that it doesn't always outperform its competitors in every situation.
The clock frequency was recorded by CPU-Z.
Although AMD's Ryzen 9 7950X3D CPU has a larger total cache, the Core i9-14900KS stands out with its impressive speed. However, Intel's processor has very high power consumption when operating at 150W and peaks at no less than 235W under load, so it's not a CPU for every configuration. This CPU is not only very expensive and energy-intensive but also requires more expensive power supplies.
