Waiting for cheaper Intel Raptor Lake Refresh CPUs? They might arrive on January 8

An Intel Core i9-14900K slotted into a motherboard.

Intel still has to flesh out its Raptor Lake Refresh range of processors, with only a trio of unlocked ‘K’ model CPUs (that can be overclocked to go faster) on shelves so far, and more affordable choices are supposedly set to debut on January 8.

We should see a raft of processors from the top to bottom of the 14th-gen range, with a new Core i9-14900 CPU at the top to partner the 14900K. The difference being the new non-K chip won’t be open to overclocking, and it’s boost will be slightly lower (by 200MHz) with a lesser power usage too – and it’ll be a bit cheaper.
