Yeah I would've thought the extra e-cores would've helped give it a meaningful booth in multi-threaded performance.. But nope, basically negligable and barely perceivable even for heavy workloads. And seemingly Intel just pumped up the watts on cores for max frequency, to basically level with Zen 4 at the expense of efficency. Really feels like a Bulldozer release, perhaps worse.

And yeah with Steve being fairly sarcy in this one, his 14900K review is 100% going to be real bloodbath lol.
