6.2GHz i9-14900KS is ashes when leaving the factory. The voltage is incredibly high and the power consumption reaches 409W.

Intel is expected to release a new generation of limited edition flagship processor i9-14900KS in mid-March, with an acceleration frequency reaching an unprecedented 6.2GHz. However, the price paid is not small, and the power consumption and voltage are very high. The latest exposed BIOS screenshot shows,In order to reach the high frequency of 6.2GHz, i9-14900KS actually requires an ultra-high voltage of 1.498V.

You know,The oven voltage of i9-14900K is only 1.27V.

Despite this, the performance of the i9-14900KS is indeed very good, at least the processor exposed.The P-core large core score is as high as 120 points, which is much higher than the average of i9-14900K99.4 points and i9-14900KF 108.6 points.

However, the E-core small core is much worse, with a score of only 67 points, which is far lower than the i9-14900K81.7 points and the i9-14900KF81 points. It is a sacrifice in disguise.

According to known information, the basic power consumption of i9-14900KS has increased from 125W to 150W. The maximum power consumption is unknown but must be higher than 253W, and the actual measured maximum power consumption is 409W under full load.

For comparison, the maximum power consumption of the i9-14900K oven is just over 350W.
