Fragz' verdict
The Core i7-14700KF takes a commanding lead in this CPU showdown, outscoring the 13th Gen Core i7-13620H by a massive 296.2 percent in overall CPU performance. This dominance is clear across the board, with the Core i7-14700KF delivering 14.5 Gop/s in multi-threaded integer operations compared to 4.2 Gop/s, and nearly double the single-thread performance at 0.9 Gop/s versus 0.43 Gop/s. For gamers, this translates directly to much higher potential, as evidenced by its 13,964,822 draw calls per second compared to 1,262,196, and a significantly smoother 116.5 FPS in the Supernova DX11 scene, far outstripping the 13th Gen Core i7-13620H's 10.5 FPS. Its 20 cores, 28 threads, larger 33 MB L3 cache, and higher peak clock of 5165 MHz provide a clear architectural advantage, though it's important to note the 13th Gen Core i7-13620H's performance is based on a single verified run, making that sample quite thin. While the Core i7-14700KF is clearly the top performer here, ranking first out of 14 CPUs, the 13th Gen Core i7-13620H, despite its lower ranking, might still be a consideration if you're building a system where raw power isn't the absolute priority and you can find it at a compelling value.

What the numbers mean
The CPU score is the processor's own performance — that is what we rank on. GAMING is the whole rig's score in the best PC we measured the processor in, and leans heavily on the graphics card. A strong processor in a weak PC gets a low GAMING score without being worse. We show both and never mix them.
All numbers come from our benchmark suite: four hand-built 3D scenes written directly against the graphics APIs in Rust, the same load on every PC. The methodology is open at https://whatfps.com/metodik
