"Locked processors firm up Intel’s stack"

Hah, ah, im a child. That made me laugh far more than it should have.

These chips should definitely allow for some decent general build options, and even though they're not necessarily a huge upgrade over the 13th gen, they're a newer bigger, although not necessarily longer, number.

Won't intels 15th gen come at nearly the same time likely? So itll be Zen 5 vs 15th gen...

No, 15th Gen should be coming out towards the end of the year and Zen 5 \ Ryzen 8000 is slated for the first half of the year. So there would be around 3 - 6 months of 14th Gen vs Ryzen 8000 series. That said, these chips mostly aren't high end chips, so they would really be fighting Ryzen 7000 and 8000G series, which is still Zen 4. As always, price will be king in most situations, so they may not always be as fast, but sometimes it's alright if you don't finish first.
 
Intel is really stepping up their game with these 14th-Gen Raptor Lake Refresh processors! The addition of locked 65W and T-Series 35W chips provides more options for users looking for specific power requirements. Can't wait to see the performance benchmarks and how they compare to the previous generation.
