One of the developments that has surprised us the most in recent years regarding Intel (in addition to all the problems they are having) is the turn they have taken by starting to develop a series of processors that return to the origins of the company. And the company is preparing a series of processors that do not integrate E-hearts, and the first one we were able to see in action through a reference performed on Geekbench is the Intel Core i9-14901KE Processor.
Among all the complaints that users have had with Intel processors in recent years, there is the company’s desire to offer a hybrid architecture that allows lower performance functions to be run on the efficiency cores while applications that need more power run on the P-Cores. The complaint mainly comes from the problems caused by a program that switches from a P-Core to an E-Core, something that is vital for a user, as much as to reconsider the use of this company’s processors.
Intel processors without E-Cores are now a reality
When we talk about Intel, we always think about how they distribute the cores of their processors, and it is currently practically impossible to name this company without mentioning the hybrid architecture that all the CPUs of their latest generations include. It could be said that this type of combination of performance and efficiency cores is already a trademark of the company, but the fact of wanting to reach more users has led them to seek to offer processors very different from those they currently have.
As we already know, the company has added a series of new processors to the official page where they show the details of each product, which have brought changes that no one expected, since they only included performance cores. The top-of-the-range model offered by the generation of these processors is the i9-14901KEwhich has already received a series of complaints from users for having incorporated only eight cores, mainly because we are talking about a CPU that, in order to try to compete with its usual opponent, should offer at least 12 cores.
Although we still do not know the exact details of the launch date of this product, we can have an idea of its performance thanks to a test carried out through Geekbench, which shows us the score of the processor in Single-Core and multi-core. From the beginning we can see that the processor is not really bad, since it manages to obtain 3018 points, similar to what the i9-14900K offers with the detail that it works at a lower speed, since the model without E-Cores has an increase in speed of 5.8 GHz while the original reaches 6 GHz.
On the other hand, in terms of multi-core scores, it does not have much to envy the other processors of the brand, since it offers 16308 points, similar to what can be found in the i9-12900K. The general configuration used by the test seems to be related to a video game hosting server, both by the name it bears and by the amount of RAM it has, which reaches up to 128 GB.
