Just sharing my views on this processor.
I always thought about i5 as slow processors, but I was checking the benchmarks and its amazingly fast and in gaming some cases even defeated i9 13900k
Intel Core i5-13600K Review | PCMag
The single core performance is really strong almost (slightly less) around Ryzen 9 7950X.
And now the prices are reasonable. Intel has done a great job with raptor lake 13th gen

A lot of the i9 13900k are faulty just intel won't admit it. So your i5 beating the i9 doesn't surprise me at all in certain cases. Personally, i9 13900k caused lots of issues for me. Especially when turbo boost was turned on. Crashes, applications not launching, BSOD and for made my GPU overwork too. Step 1 was to disable the turbo boost which solved all the issues, then I contacted intel support which without any investigation at all issued me a full refund. Since then I just bought the i9 14900k and haven't had any issues at all. It wouldn't surprise me if the issues with 13900 were the reason for them releasing 14900k so quickly. They just never recalled them or officially acknowledged the issue.
