In the past year, two types of desktop solutions have become popular: gaming computers and mini PCs. However, there is still a necessity for performance-oriented computers, as many users prioritize CPU performance without high gaming demands. For these users, the performance of mini PCs may not meet their needs.
Among these computers, let’s take a look at the i7-14790F processor. This new processor features 8 performance cores, 8 efficiency cores, totaling 16 cores and 24 threads, with a secondary cache of 24MB and a smart cache of 36MB. It has a maximum frequency of 5.4GHz and a base power consumption of 65W.
From the ranking, we can see that the i7-14790F is positioned fourth, just behind three i9 processors. Although its specifications are slightly lower than the i7-14700KF, it is important to note that the 14700KF is a 125W version, while the i7-14790F is only 65W, indicating its advantages.
Its score on the Master Lu benchmark is 920,000 points. However, due to a maximum turbo power consumption of 219W, achieving 1,000,000 points is quite common, showcasing its strong performance.
Let’s take a look at two typical products.
One is the Pan Sheng Zhan Shen Pro designer computer, originally priced at 5999 yuan, now available for 4999 yuan.
This computer is equipped with the i7-14790F processor, a B760 motherboard, an RTX 3050 graphics card with 6GB of memory, 16GB of DDR5 5200MHz RAM, and a 1TB M.2 high-speed SSD.
It features a 6-heat pipe cooler, a 550W power supply, a 3-year warranty, and 1-year on-site service.
This product can accommodate a 240mm radiator for better cooling performance and enhanced visual appeal.
Next, let’s look at another model, the Acer Shadow Knight office computer, priced at 5199 yuan.
This model is equipped with the i7-14790F processor, 32GB of RAM, a 1TB hard drive, and a 4GB dedicated office graphics card, with a three-year warranty and three years of on-site service. Clearly, it is positioned as an office computer, with the dedicated graphics card being just an additional feature.
Currently, there are not many computers with the i7-14790F processor available, mainly because manufacturers still have a lot of stock. This model is quite powerful, but it may need to be released later. However, its brilliance is already evident. This is just the beginning; we should see more computers with the i7-14790F coming soon.
