If you must 13700K/14700K are on sale about 47 apart currently. Am not sure about heat but have 12700KF & 12900KF, and I likely should have spent the extra on the 13700K. There's a minor bump in speed and more e cores between the 2 (ecores aren't super useful for gaming other than background tasks). I updated my BIOS on the 12900KF and I think one of those two if I upgraded either rig would be fine. Just am not sure it's worth the spend but there is some improvement. You will get more p cores on either of those. The 14th i7 and i9 are pretty close. These are US prices though so it does depend on your local pricing also.
