Although Intel's 14th Gen Raptor Lake Refresh, some of the best CPUs, hit the desktop first, it's making its way to laptops shortly, as indicated by a leaked benchmark of the Core i9-14900HX (via Benchleaks). This Geekbench 6 test was run on what appears to be an unreleased model of the Predator Helios 16, and although the performance is good, it's not that much better than what you could get with the same laptop using a Core i9-13900HX.
Geekbench 6 gave the Core i9-14900HX a single-core score of 2,998 and a multi-core score of 17,937, and it also confirms it has an 8+16 P/E-core configuration and a 5.6 GHz boost clock. The Core i9-14900HX couldn't keep up with our sample of the desktop 14900K, which scored 3,186 in single-core and 20,961 in multi-core. This contrasts a leaked benchmark of the Core i7-14700HX, which showed the same performance as the Core i7-14700K.
