Intel sneaks out nine 14th-Gen CPUs without E-cores — odd flagship Core i9-14901KE is the first overclockable chip for the embedded market

Intel CPU.

On the cusp of Intel's Arrow Lake-S desktop CPU launch, Intel has quietly launched an all-new 14th Gen Raptor Lake Refresh CPUs known as the "14001" series with P-cores only. These CPUs lack E-cores entirely and target embedded solutions, but in a strange twist, the flagship model is overclockable. 

That's the bad news: these chips only come in an embedded format, preventing enthusiasts and mainstream customers from accessing these unorthodox CPUs. Embedded form factors are a computing solution where the CPU is installed into a machine from an OEM at the factory. Usually, these chips are sold with the motherboard and cannot be easily replaced or upgraded.
