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.

5820K+4070 here. Happily playing games at 4K@60FPS, or better (sometimes requiring DLSS, admittedly). I was hoping Sapphire Rapids/W790 would be as economic as the X99/X299 HEDT platforms of old, but that's not really the case, even allowing for nearly a decade of inflation.
I can see me reluctantly settling for the mere 2-3x performance gains of a 13700K/14700K unless something better - and yet still economic to buy - arrives.
