I believe they’re only slightly different if you matched the clock speeds, I’m sure it would be closer.

It's not a huge distinction, right? But they're definitely different CPUs. Remembering "same CPU" isn't always accurate... the i9-11900k matches the i7-11700k mostly, just a bit faster due to BIOS tweaks. The i7-7700k is similar to the i7-6700k, also with a BIOS adjustment for speed. The 13700k brings hardware changes and better performance per instruction thanks to more L2 cache, a higher clock speed, and possibly a better memory controller. It seems the 13700k offers more value for less money compared to the 12900k.
