The CPU carries a 35 W TDP and a 5.20 GHz boost clock, while the GPU delivers 17.20 TFLOPS of FP32 compute with 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus. The combined benchmark percentile sits at 77, placing this build above the majority of recorded desktop configurations. No measured FPS data exists for this exact combination, so all gaming performance discussion below is estimated from the individual CPU and GPU benchmark scores.

CPU Analysis

The Intel Core i7-14700T is a 20-core, 28-thread processor built on the Raptor Lake architecture using Intel’s 10 nm process node. It features a base clock of 1.30 GHz and a boost clock of 5.20 GHz, a wide frequency range that allows the chip to idle efficiently while still delivering high single-thread performance when demanded. The cache hierarchy includes 80 KB of L1 per core, 2 MB of L2 per core, and 33 MB of shared L3 cache, providing ample on-die storage for frequently accessed data across all cores.

The CPU’s Cinebench R23 multicore score of 25980 places it in the 88th percentile among all CPUs, indicating strong multi-threaded capability for a 35 W part. Its single-core score of 3667 in the same test demonstrates that the high boost clock translates into competitive single-thread responsiveness. The Cinebench R20 scores of 10911 multicore and 1540 single-core follow the same pattern, while the older R15 test yields 2618 multicore and 369 single-core. These results show a processor that scales well with thread count, though the power envelope necessarily limits sustained all-core performance compared to higher-TDP counterparts.

PassMark results reinforce this picture. The multithread score of 30571 and single-thread score of 3905 both exceed typical mid-range desktop processors. Integer math scores 113854, floating-point math scores 79042, and extended instructions score 20052, indicating robust number-crunching capabilities across varied workloads.
