Moving to the Ryzen 7 9700X (8C/16T) vs. the Core i7-14700K (8P+12E/28T), AMD is claiming victories across a plethora of benchmarks, including 7-Zip, UL Procyon Office, and HandBrake (technically, Intel 14th Gen doesn't officially support AVX-512), which is where the 42% gain in performance is obviously coming from.
