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 upgraded from i7-2700K to i7-13700K at end of 2022. I mainly did it as I bought a 3080 Ti to replace my 1080 Ti and didn't want to severely bottleneck it. And yes I did run the 3080 Ti with my 2700K for a few weeks.
If you need the upgrade now then upgrade now. There will always be something newer/better on the horizon. Unless there is some specific feature that Arrow Lake has that you absolutely need, there is no real reason to wait imo.
