This is the same CPU tier, just a later generation.
Passmark scores:
6700K: 8,929
14700K: 53,263
Yeah, that's practically the same performance.
But hey, that newer i7 has way more cores. Let's pick something with a closer core count for a fairer comparison. Let's pick the Core i3-14100 with its 4C/8T with a turbo of 4.7GHz. Even then, its Passmark benchmark 15,050.
I get it, an old CPU can still be useful. I'm still using an Ivy Bridge CPU for a server in my closet hosting various services for my home, but it is vastly slower than my Ryzen 7 3700x on my current gaming desktop and was even slower than the previous Ryzen 5 2600 I had before and sold to a friend.
