The Last Hope for Intel 14th "Gen" - Core i5-14600K Review, Benchmarks, & Discussion

Sponsor: Lian Li O11 Dynamic Evo XL on Newegg https://geni.us/FAIw
Our last review -- so far, anyway -- for the Intel 14-series CPUs covers the Core i5-14600K. Benchmarks largely focus on the 14600K vs. the 13600K, the AMD Ryzen 5 5800X3D, the R7 7800X3D, and other flanking Intel and AMD CPUs. Thus far, we've been unimpressed by the Intel Core i7-14700K and Core i9-14900K, and have found the last-gen 13-series CPUs to generally offer better value (when cheaper). Because we've reviewed two CPUs very similarly now, we wanted to take the opportunity in this video to talk more about the industry in general and Intel's current positioning. It's a mix of 'talking head' discussion up front with benchmarks and review in the back half.
