14900KS coming with new boards same 1700 socket TechYES video

I'm going to pick up the 14500 or 14700F since it has more cores and lower temps there is stuff like the i5 13400f but has less cores. I'll see if the Refresh CPU comes with a Intel stock cooler. I don't mind my Noctua but it's so big so It takes away from my build.

I just want something that runs cooler where I can ditch the Noctua.

I suggest that instead of buying a new CPU you invest some time into fixing your current PC.
 
Only some games crash it I don't think it's hardware related after I researched some more.
I had a game constantly CTD or lock my system. Tweaking the memory has fixed it. ASUS 790 MB. I have 4-5 XMP/memory settings in BIOS and it crashed using any. I set XMP1 and dropped the transfer speed to 7600 from 7800. Other settings untouched. No crashes.

In my case I'm still not sure if it's the ram, MB or memory controller. I'm going to swap to a 14th gen cpu later this year. Hoping the controller is a little better and can take the higher speed ram setting.

IMO opinion, a crash which you have to wait for a "cool down" period, to be qbke to start your computer again: may be a ppwer supply issue.

Im not saying "definitely". But, thats something I would focus on, initially.

It can also be RAM, if you are running reqlly high speed DDR5....

...DDR5 is very temp sensitive. I think it's somewhere around 70c, that really high speeds can fail. Dropping to 7600 may have kept it under a temp threshold. Especially if it coincided with a voltage drop.
The closer you get to 8000, the more likely you need an intake fan blowing right in the memory. And the RAM should have thermal tape on all the components. Some brands do not tape the PMIC.

G.Skill is infamous for not taping the PMIC on their DDR5.
 
Piecing my system. I have Godlike Z790 and Rtx 3090ti so far. Going for 14900K or KS (If released). Ram will be 2 sticks of 48gb ram. Hoping better memory controller on 14 series is slight improvement. Also Pcie5 psu and new case.

Oh wow didn't know that about DDR 5 temps being volatile do you think 6000mhz is a safe bet?

One more reason to use ECC RAM so that you get warnings when things start to go bad.
 
I'm rather surprised to see LGA 1700 has three generations of support, because Intel usually supports only two generations or only 1 on a single socket or chipset family.

This is shocking... surprised they didn't make LGA 1700 obsolete and throw one more pin in the mix for LGA 1701..
Please think of the starving shareholders!!!

6000 is fine.

Temps don't become an issue until you start going past like 7400mhz and/or need 4.5 or more on the main voltages.

And keep in mind you typically need a z790/b760 board, to even get past 6800mhz.
