Intel Core i5-14401TE

The Intel Core i5-14401TE is a desktop processor from Intel’s Core 14th Gen series, using the Raptor Lake architecture with the codename Raptor Lake-R and the generation label Core i5 (Raptor Lake Refresh). The fact pack lists 6 cores and 12 threads, a 2000.00 MHz base clock, a 4.50 GHz boost clock, and a 45 W TDP. It is built for Intel Socket 1700, has 20 MB of shared L3 cache, supports DDR4 and DDR5 memory through a dual-channel memory bus, includes UHD Graphics 730, and carries the part number Q4T4SRNJP. The dataset records no benchmark scores, an average benchmark score of 0, and a percentile rank of 50 among all CPUs.

Who Should Consider It

The 6-core/12-thread layout places this processor in the mainstream desktop category. The market segment in the fact pack is Desktop, and the production status is Active, so it is positioned as a current desktop option. For office-style workloads, the important specification is the 4.50 GHz boost clock: single tasks that depend on quick response can use that boost ceiling, while the 6 physical cores provide enough parallel resources for common multitasking. The base clock is 2000.00 MHz, which is not high, but the processor does not rely on base clock alone when handling interactive work.

Users working with content creation or other multi-threaded applications will find a more relevant set of specifications. The 12 threads give the processor a moderate parallel workload capability, and the 20 MB shared L3 cache allows running threads to share a larger pool of cached data. Each core also has 80 KB of L1 cache and 1.25 MB of L2 cache, which helps workloads that repeatedly access the same per-core data. No content creation benchmark score is recorded in the fact pack, so the practical advantage over other CPUs cannot be expressed as a percentage; still, the core and thread counts form the basis for recommending it to users whose applications scale across threads.

For gaming, the processor includes UHD Graphics 730 as its integrated graphics solution. That means a system can be built without an additional graphics card, though game performance is not quantified by any benchmark in the fact pack. The CPU also provides PCIe Gen 5 with 16 Lanes (CPU only), which is relevant for attaching discrete graphics or high-speed expansion devices. The data does not include frame rates or game-specific results, so gaming suitability should be assessed from the core count, clock speeds, cache capacity, and the presence of integrated graphics rather than from measured scores.

ECC memory support is listed as true. This is a notable feature for workstations, small servers, or data-integrity-focused builds. The processor supports both DDR4 and DDR5 memory, giving builders a choice of memory generation, and the memory bus is dual-channel. Because the percentile rank is 50, the data positions this CPU at the midpoint of the CPU distribution; that suggests a balanced, mainstream part rather than a high-end or entry-level extreme.

Power and Thermals

The TDP is 45 W. This is a low-power desktop-class envelope, and the fact pack does not specify a particular cooler. For a 45 W TDP processor, the cooling tier implied is modest: a standard desktop air cooler in the appropriate socket class should be sufficient for normal operation, though the dataset does not provide thermal measurements. The 10 nm process node and Intel as the foundry are listed, along with a die size of 215 mm². Those manufacturing details help explain a thermal profile that pairs a 45 W TDP with 6 cores and a 4.50 GHz boost capability.

The multiplier is not unlocked. The multiplierUnlocked field is false, so user-controlled overclocking is not part of the specification. This reinforces the idea that the processor is intended to run within its stated power and thermal envelope rather than be pushed beyond it. The base clock of 2000.00 MHz is a relevant detail for thermals: the processor has a high boost clock, but the base clock is set relatively low, which can help keep sustained power draw manageable. The fact pack does not include a cooler recommendation, so no specific cooler size or type should be inferred beyond what a 45 W class part normally requires.

Benchmark Performance

The benchmark data in the fact pack is empty. The benchmarks array contains no scores, and the average benchmark score field is 0. Because of this, there is no measured aggregate performance number to report. The nearestRivals array is also empty, meaning the dataset provides no rival names, no rival scores, and no deltaPct values. As a result, exact percentage deltas against other processors cannot be calculated or cited.

The single comparative datum available is percentileVsAllCpus, which is 50. In the context of the CPUs tracked by this database, that value places the Intel Core i5-14401TE at the 50th percentile, or the midpoint of the distribution. This should not be read as a benchmark score; it is a rank position. With average benchmark score at 0 and no benchmark entries stored, the percentile figure is the only quantitative performance-positioning information present in the fact pack. Therefore, any statement that this CPU is ahead of or behind a specific rival would be unsupported by the data.

How It Compares

The nearestRivals list in the fact pack is empty. There are no rival processor names, no rival scores, and no deltaPct values available for comparison. This section therefore cannot provide a per-rival comparison, because the dataset contains no rival rows. The only positional statement supported by the data is percentileVsAllCpus: 50. That places the processor in the middle of the CPU distribution tracked by the database, but it does not identify which processors are immediately above or below it. Without rival records, the correct conclusion is that no comparative performance assertions can be made from this fact pack.

Single-Thread vs Multi-Thread Behavior

The base clock is 2000.00 MHz and the boost clock is 4.50 GHz. That gap between base and boost is substantial. For single-threaded tasks, the 4.50 GHz boost clock is the ceiling that matters most; workloads such as quick, bursty interactions or lightly threaded applications can use the higher clock rate. The fact pack does not include a measured single-thread score, so the exact magnitude of the advantage cannot be stated, but the clock frequency data indicates that the processor is capable of a high single-core boost state.

For multi-threaded workloads, the relevant facts are 6 cores and 12 threads. Multi-threaded tasks can be spread across all 12 threads, and the 20 MB shared L3 cache provides a common cache space for those threads. The per-core cache sizes, 80 KB of L1 and 1.25 MB of L2, are also part of the picture: each core has its own dedicated cache layer, which can help reduce contention in mixed workloads. The base clock of 2000.00 MHz is lower than the boost clock, so sustained all-core workloads may operate closer to a lower frequency than a lightly threaded burst would; the dataset does not include sustained-load data to confirm exactly where steady-state all-core frequency lands. In practical terms, this split means the processor has a strong single-thread boost ceiling while offering a moderate multi-thread capacity through 12 threads and a shared 20 MB L3 pool.
