It's not good idea to compare hardware performance from different tests against each other. Even if they test the same game at same settings, testing procedure can be different, and that makes those tests kinda incomparable.
Just look at 5800x3d performance in this video and compare it to 5800x3d performance their video about 14900k from 1 month ago:
I'm all in for using few years old CPUs in benchmarks to see how they compare to newest CPUs, but if that was the goal of the video, they would've also tested newest CPUs.
Of course they are, plenty of people are still playing games older than 5 years too. I don't have a problem with testing older games, but when someone say "5 years later", "today's games", "to see which platform aged the best", "in 2023", when most of the games aren't "today's", aren't from "5 years later" CPUs were released, weren't released "in 2023", and say us nothing about how CPUs aged in 5 years, I find it confusing and kinda dishonest.
