        The article talks about desktop CPUs, so I guess they are different architecture… Hope I will be able to play “The Sims” smoothly.

        Depends on the generation. The one that’s just been released, Meteor Lake, wasn’t released on desktop because despite Intel aspiring to make it a more power efficient architecture across the board, in a lot of its voltage/frequency curve, it’s less efficient than previous gen.

        On desktop, it’d be a downgrade over previous gen for sure, so they instead just re-released 13th gen chips as 14th gen.
