The linked video doesn't take into account power consumption of these CPUs. He seems to be comparing laptop CPUs, NUC CPUs and desktop CPUs. If you compare a 100W CPU and a 30W CPU that's a couple of years newer, you shouldn't be surprised there isn't much of a difference in performance.


Even if you exclude the three mobile CPUs in the charts (the 2012 i5, the 2015 i7, and the 2023 i9 NUC), the results still hold.

Sure, but this is over a lot more than a couple years. I'd expect a 2023 mobile i9 to be considerably more than twice as fast as a 2007 desktop Core 2 Duo.
