At the moment i have a 13700f and it looks like i have a cpu bottleneck with my current gpu (a 4090) and im not sure what would be the best option for upgrading since im also a bit flat on money now since i got my new gpu

Also im not sure if the prices here in my country are high but the 13900k is about 700 USD and the 14900k is about 800usd and the 14700k is about 500usd.

But I have the 13700f not a k...

Its cuz whenever i play games after i switched my gpu i cant get higher than 70% utilisation on the gpu where my cpu is pushing all it can

Let's assume you get a 14900K then, overclock it to 6 GHz P-cores using direct die cooling, and throw on 8000 MT/s DDR5 with a Z790 Apex Encore for good measure. You're now somewhere around 30% faster in games than your previous setup, and GPU utilization will occasionally hit 90% instead of 70%

All for the neat sum of roughly 2000 USD
