While the massive fourteenth-generation CPUs have been launched and examined, all of the lower-end ranges have but to be launched. For that, we’ll have to attend slightly longer, because the CES date has been talked about. Nevertheless, through a China-based vendor, we are able to already discover traces of the Core i3 14100, an entry-level CPU!
Core i3 14100: the CPU noticed in China!
Clearly, this CPU is an entry-level mannequin, with solely 4 cores and eight threads. It actually pales compared with the 14900K (24c/32). The remainder of the specs point out a base frequency of three.5 GHz and a 12 MB L3 cache reminiscence. Finally, heating shouldn’t be an issue, with its 60W.
This sequence must be accomplished by an “F” mannequin devoid of iGPU, the built-in graphics half. Finally, a 3rd “T” mannequin must also seem, with a TDP restricted to 35W and a base frequency lowered to 2.7 GHz.
All we are able to say is {that a} man in China (through Goofish) is promoting a 14100, and it hasn’t gone unnoticed. Indeed, @Harukaze5719 on Twitter noticed it. In the meantime, it’s a mannequin listed at 850 yuan, i.e. round $120, and it’s stated to be a Qualification Sample.
