For sure.  I had an i7-6700k paired with a 1080 Ti.  Upgraded to 10700k and it doubled my framerate in some games.  And in others that were previously unplayable made them run extremely well.  Battlefront 2 was one example of that

Edit:  This was at 1080p and most of that performance improvement would’ve come from much better IPC rather than increased core count

It's not necessarily core count. You went forward nearly five generations of IPC improvements.
