On the contrary I can say first hand that it is true (3700X which is two years newer, but on benchamrks it is a toss up between the two). What modern GPU at you using?

3700X's 8-cores is a generational leap above the 7700k's quad core for modern games. They aren't comparable at all.

I ran a GTX 1080 and then an RTX 3080. The performance was not very good in modern games designed for current gen consoles like pretty much any BR game for example. Some games got high FPS at times but with low minimum FPS.

I generally rule out all Intel CPUs between the 4770 and 11th Gen.

The exception is when I need dirt-cheap + lower-ish power consumption (which isn't gaming)

Your preference does not change whether or not it can achieve > 60fps at 1440p in modern multiplayer games when paired with a modern GPU

An now 13th and 14th Gen... Before it is absolutely certain issues are fixed... So that leaves 12th?

12700k here, absolute unit of a CPU.
