Pricing of Intel Core i9-14900KS Verified at $749

The Core i9-14900KS, Intel’s forthcoming enthusiast-class desktop CPU, will retail for $749, as per a MicroCenter listing. The price that the firm requested for the i9-13900KS and i9-12900KS of the previous generation is the same as this one. The i9-14900KS is a Special Edition SKU, therefore it might not be accessible in all markets where the i9-14900K would be. Additionally, the chip should demand more power and cooling.
