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.

Upgrade after 10 years (alien.top)

It's been since 2014 since I built my last computer. At the time I was really into small form factors and mini-itx machines. My current machine has a i7-4790K and GTX-980 on a Asus Z97I-PLUS motherboard with 16 GB of ram. I am getting decent performance playing MMO's such as World of Warcraft and The Old Republic. I primarily play these types of games on High or Ultra but last few years I have noticed my system struggling to keep up.

I would like to build a new system based around the NZXT aesthetic prioritizing a clean sleek appearance and excellent performance to hopefully get me another 9.5 years of gaming.

Here is the build.

Yeah thats true, they have so little price difference right now, its better to get 14700k. i just thought op might be from a region like mine, which still intel 14th gen cpu costs 50% more than a 13th gen.
