I5-12600k upgrade to? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

I’m using a NH-U12A air cooler and temperatures when gaming are around 60 degrees. You’ll get lower temperatures if you have a 360 mm AIO.

I upgraded from a 12600K to a 14700K. I also have a 4080 (and the same case). Definitely worth it as it will allow you to get another 3-4 years use of your motherboard and RAM. And don’t believe all the negative reviews - the 14700K is a very good CPU especially if APO becomes more widespread.

i7 14700K or i9 13900K? in c/[email protected]

I’d go with the newer CPU over the older one, so 14700K.

I went from i5 7500 to i5 8600K to 9700K to 9900K to 12600K to 14700K. So whenever the fancy takes me.

Is Intel Core i5 14600K enough for gaming at 1080p? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Yes, the 14600K will be more than enough for 1080p.

12700k to 14700k worth it? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

I upgraded from a 12600K to a 14700K and for me it was worth it. From 6 cores at 4.9 GHz to 8 cores at 5.6 GHz.

Should I upgrade to the 14700k from the 9700k? or wait until gen 15? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

15th gen at least gives you an upgrade path rather than buying into a dead platform. That’s if you can wait until next year.
