Among AMD's bold claims about Zen 5's gaming performance was that the Ryzen 7 9700X would be 6% faster than Intel's Core i7-14700K. However, AMD has since walked back this claim, stating in a blog post that when running the 14700K with Intel's "Extreme" profile and the same high-speed memory that most reviewers use, the 9700X performs on par with the 14700K.

Also let's not forget that the Intel extreme profile is probably not the recommended one, not that anyone would know what's recommended by them these days though.
