Leaked Intel Core i5-14600K benchmark at both normal and overclocked clocks

Benchmark results of Intel's Intel Core i5-14600K CPU at both base clock and overclock have just been revealed on Geekbench 6. This 14th generation chip is oriented by Intel to target the popular segment in the price range. 300 USD in the US, and will compete directly with the Ryzen 5 and Ryzen 7 CPU lines from AMD.

The specifications of the Intel Core i5-14600K CPU are basically nothing complicated. You'll get a total of 6 high-performance P cores (12 threads) and 8 low-power E cores (8 threads), for a total of 14 cores and 20 threads.
