This feature wouldn’t make someone buy a 14th gen. I have one and it’s extremely hard to get it to even work and it only supports a couple of games, maybe in the future it will be something but for this gen it doesn’t do much at all, I thought that was also his point in the review. Only reason I got the 14th gen is because is basically a 13900KS but a lot cheaper. For some reason the 13900-KS are way over priced and the 14th gen gets literally the same performance as far as all reviews I’ve seen and tests.

Now having said that, I agree that if there’s not a hardware issue preventing them to allow a feature on prior gen’s (specially ones that are on the same socket type). it’s even if not from a practical standpoint but from a sales and marketing position such a stupid move.

Still starting with the next gen the hardware will be so different and better than who knows what they will do. But I’m not concerning myself with that since I don’t plan to upgrade for a few generations.
