Rules
-
Be civil. Uncivil language, slurs, and insults will result in a ban. If you can't say something respectfully, don't say it at all.
-
No Unoriginal Sources, Referral links or Paywalled Articles.
-
All posts must be related to Intel or Intel products.
-
Give competitors' recommendations only where appropriate. If a user asks for Intel only (i.e. i5-12600k vs i5-13400?) recommendations, do not reply with non-Intel recommendations. Commenting on a build pic saying they should have gone AMD/Nvidia is also inappropriate, don't be rude. Let people enjoy things.

CPU Cooling problems: Just like 95C is normal for Ryzen, 100C is normal for Intel CPUs in many workloads. If you're worried about CPU temperatures, please look at reviews for the laptop or CPU cooler you're using.

I have a 13900k and there really few and far between workloads that can use the sustained all 40 threads to its maximum. I do high performance computing and encoding besides gaming. I get 100% usage with some very specific R code, Python only goes above 1 core for very short durations and handbrake uses ~60% of the cpu for software x265. Also you'll need faster ram to get the most of it and cooling it is a harder as well. I'd go with the 14700k, save the difference and place it towards the gpu
