I want to upgrade my cpu, but I’m wondering what would be a logical upgrade, and if an upgrade from 12th gen is even worth it to 13th or 14th gen at the moment (with current price to performance).
I’m leaning towards 14th gen since it’s also the last gen on a LGA1700 socket, but with the bad reviews on it i’m not quite sure it’s worth the effort. Then again i just bought the motherboard, and i don’t want to wait on 15th gen and have to buy a new mobo again. Any thoughts and advice?
Thanks for this! Hardware wise we're close to each other, so i'm a bit curious about you're experience on temps since the 14700k.
