I have an 11700K and a 3070ti. Both of these were panned by GN and others as somehow pointless. Somehow I'm happily running here, fast and stable with everything I throw at it. You can safely ignore the youtuberati's views on what should or should not exist.

This i7-14700K has bumped frequencies, added E cores and increased "Smart Cache" (3MB) and total L2 cache (4MB) and uses the existing socket. It's a fine refresh product that will do what it says on the tin for years, and given that it is a refresh of an existing, mature product, it will do so with the least possible friction.

"Pointless" in the context of the hardware that already existed at the time of it's release. Not "pointless" as in it doesn't function as a processor.
