Canadian Retailer, PC-Canada, has now listed Intel's 14th Gen Core i9-14900K, Core i7-14700K & Core i5-14600K CPUs with preliminary prices.
Starting with the prices, the Intel Core i9-14900K and Core i9-14900KF are listed for $833.99 CAD and 795.99 CAD, respectively. This marks a 3% price hike over the Intel Core i9-13900K and Core i9-13900KF. The Core i7-14700K and Core i7-14700KF are said to be priced at $597.99 CAD & $559.99 CAD, respectively. That's an increase of 2% & 3% over the Core i5-13700K and Core i5-13700KF. We also have the Core i5-14600K and Core i5-14600KF which are priced at $453.99 CAD & $415.99 CAD. These chips should be priced 4% and 3% higher than their predecessors, the Core i5-13600K & Core i5-13600KF.
Previous listings have shown the same Intel 14th Gen CPU lineup with a 15% markup over their predecessors however the latest listing shows an average increase of just 3%. The highest price increase comes with the Core i7-14700KF which costs 4% higher than its predecessor but that's about it. The rest of the chips are mostly in line with the 13th Gen parts while the 12th Gen lineup has been heavily discounted considering that it's more than two years old now. So that at least is a good sign that we might still get to see prices for the 14th Gen CPUs on par with 13th Gen chips & what we had seen earlier was just a preliminary listing.
Whether these prices are just preliminary ones or the ones we would actually see during launch is something only time will tell so please take these with a grain of salt until a confirmation comes from Intel itself.
