Intel's alleged Core i9-14900KS processor has found its way into the OCCT benchmark database (as discovered by @BenchLeaks), which can be considered as a confirmation of its existence. The listed specifications correspond to what we learned about the purported CPU back in early January, but what we did not expect was the whopping maximum thermal power of the processor. This is still unofficial information and thus subject to change, but if accurate it appears Intel is going to extreme lengths for a minor boost in performance.

Intel's Core i9-14900KS costs $100 more for this binned CPU was spotted at multiple European retailers

The Intel Core i9-14900KS has surfaced at multiple retailers across Europe, and listings with price tags indicate that the flagship CPU will have a significantly higher price than the Core i9-14900K. Although it's hard to trust pre-launch pricing for listings that clearly weren't supposed to go public yet, one listing in particular may have plausible pricing, and would put the 14900KS a little above €700 or $750.

 

Retail leaks for upcoming hardware usually don't happen at big sites like Amazon or Newegg, but at small regional stores that can be hard to track down. One such listing was leaked by @momomo_us on X, showing two different listings for the Core i9-14900KS on a French retailer we couldn't identify. However, we were able to find several other listings for the 14900KS; one was at the Austrian site Singer and another three were all from Swiss retailers. We've compared these prices below (except for Singer's which is priced unrealistically for over €1,000), and converted the Swiss sites' Francs to Euros.
