In context: Intel is expected to launch its 14th-gen Core i5-14600K desktop CPU later this month as part of the Raptor Lake Refresh lineup. It has been benchmarked a number of times already, showing a minor performance gain over its predecessor. The latest leaked benchmarks now seemingly reveal the chip's stock and overclocked frequencies.
The first couple of benchmarks ( 1 , 2 ) (via Benchleaks 1 , 2 ) show a single-core score of 2,819 points and a multi-core score of 16,707 points in Geekbench 6 while running at a stock 3.5GHz. Both benchmarks were run using a testbed based on the ASUS TUF Gaming Z790-PLUS WIFI Motherboard with 32GB of quad-channel DDR5-5200 memory.
Another benchmark (via Benchleaks ) was run using a different system, based on the Gigabyte Z790 AORUS MASTER X motherboard with 48GB of quad-channel DDR5-7600 memory. This time, the chip was overclocked to 5.7GHz, and scored 2,861 points in the single-core test and 17,974 points in the multi-core benchmark. Do note that Geekbench listings are relatively easy to fake, so take these numbers with a pinch of salt for now.

Intel is expected to announce its 14th-gen Core CPU lineup on October 17 as an upgrade over last year's 13th-gen Raptor Lake series. Multiple leaks over the past few weeks have revealed many key details about the upcoming chips, including their core counts and clock speeds. A recent leak also revealed that the lineup could have more than two dozen SKUs, led by the flagship Core i9-14900K.
As per the leak, there will be five Core i9 SKUs, including the Core i9-14900K, 14900KF, 14900F, 14900T, and 14900. All of them will reportedly have 24 cores, including 8 Performance cores and 16 Efficiency cores. The more mainstream Core i7 series is said to have 5 SKUs, including the Core i7-14700K, 14700KF, 14700, and 14700T. All of them are tipped to have 20 cores, including 8 P-cores and 12 E-cores, and feature up to 33 MB of L3 cache.
The Core i5 lineup is expected to have the Core i5-14400, 14400F and 14400T with 6 Performance cores and 4 Efficiency cores, and the Core i5-14500, 14500T, 14600, 14600T, 14600K, and 14600KF with a 6P + 8E configuration. As for the Core i3 series, it is said to include the quad-core Core i3-14100, 14100F, and 14100T, all with 12MB of L3 cache. The lineup is also expected to include a couple of entry-level dual-core Intel 300 and 300T CPUs with 6 MB of L3 cache and 3.9GHz clock speeds.
