Pedantry aside, OK, Analog Kid.
EDIT to add: The 1.4GHz Core i5 was designed by Intel
for mobile devices.
Even if clocked officially at 1.4GHz, Intel downclocked a nominally faster, by design, iteration of the fourth-gen, 22nm Core i5 (the Haswell) to offer that product for mobile hardware, where cooling was constrained and ultra-low power consumption was needed.
At least three faster, cheaper desktop CPUs from the i3 line released the same quarter as the 1.4Ghz i5 (i.e., faster than the Ivy Bridge 3.3GHz Core i3 in the base 2013 iMac and faster than the 1.4GHz i5-4260U in the base 2014 iMac) could have been offered by Apple for an entry iMac.
Perceptually and practically speaking, the mid-2014 iMac at 1.4GHz was downclocked, relative to its direct predecessor (3.3 to 1.4GHz); slower than its predecessor (in Geekbench testing); and by design, relied on a CPU underclocked by Intel for use in said low-power, limited cooling mobile hardware (which the 2014 base iMac and the 2014 Mac mini were not).
