Core i5-14400 price and price history

The Core i5-14400 takes DDR5 or DDR4, whichever the motherboard is built for. Intel rates it for DDR5-4800 or DDR4-3200 with two modules; four modules are rated lower.

The cheapest 32GB kit of two modules at DDR5-4800, the speed Intel rates it for: 2X16GB DDR5 38400 4800MHZ Non ECC DIMM 2RX8 DR 1.1V at $440.00.

A faster kit, such as DDR5-5600 from $440.00, reaches its speed only with its EXPO or XMP profile turned on, which Intel counts as overclocking; without it the kit runs at a slower standard speed.

The cheapest 32GB kit of two modules at DDR4-3200, the speed Intel rates it for: OWC 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 3200 PC4-25600 CL22 2Rx8 288-pin 1.2V Non-ECC UDIMM Memory RAM Module Upgrade Compat with TerraMaster U12-322-9100... at $199.58.

A faster kit, such as DDR4-3600 from $239.99, reaches its speed only with its XMP profile turned on, which Intel counts as overclocking; without it the kit runs at a slower standard speed.

Rated speed from Wikipedia (Raptor Lake), which cites Intel's specifications. The motherboard decides the rest: check its memory support list, and read XMP and EXPO.

The lowest price in this record was $199.99 on Aug 18, 2026. It contains 61 dates with a price and 29 missing days. Each point refers to the same product identity.

The record starts with actual observations. It is not an all-time low, a launch-to-today history or a record of completed sales.

The median Blender 4.5 result is 198.8, from 10 complete single-device submissions using CPU. Higher means more rendered samples per minute across the three scenes. This is community benchmark data, not a test conducted by ComponentPrices.

It describes rendering, not gaming frame rates. Drivers, cooling and system configuration can affect a submission. The value column divides that median by each listing's price.
