Be civil. Uncivil language, slurs, and insults will result in a ban. If you can't say something respectfully, don't say it at all.

All posts must be related to Intel or Intel products.
Give competitors' recommendations only where appropriate. If a user asks for Intel only (i.e. i5-12600k vs i5-13400?) recommendations, do not reply with non-Intel recommendations. Commenting on a build pic saying they should have gone AMD/Nvidia is also inappropriate, don't be rude. Let people enjoy things.
CPU Cooling problems: Just like 95C is normal for Ryzen, 100C is normal for Intel CPUs in many workloads. If you're worried about CPU temperatures, please look at reviews for the laptop or CPU cooler you're using.

money is not an issue
never will use it for gaming, just excel and opening 200+ tabs on chrome.
worried if I get the i9, the arctic freezer II 360 aio, plus four additional 140mm fans won't be able to cool the 14900. I want idle speeds to be under 40c and never go above 60c when using it.
I understand that I don't even need an i7 or i9, I do it because I wanna have to PC for the next ten years and have no problems and because I can. "Futureproofing for these basic functions"
will I notice any differences between the 14900 and 14700 when opening chrome? Will have 64gb of ram.

Get a Xeon workstation and never look back.

I’ve got a 44 core Xeon, 1TB of RAM. Never have to worry about anything. If money is no object, go with the Xeon and fill it with RAM.
