Yes, but we're comparing CPUs, not laptops. You commented this in the other section, like "Compare Laptop" section.

Not much difference in these, I have the i7 13700HX paired with 32GB DDR5 4800mhz RAM and an 8GB RTX 4070... Super nice...I could of got the i7 14700HX with RTX 4060 8GB but chose the better card...since I couldn't see much difference in their processors..both are nice. But the 4070 is way better than the 4060 more so than the difference in these processors.
