You could run it at 99ºc, 24/7 for 5+ years no issues they don't care. Like them or not, Intel makes solid products.

Windows ME? Single threaded OS. That one core is probably only giving you a pathetic 36kfps in games. Need to upgrade to an i9 at least. /s

Also nice work. I dont know why you want to do this but nice work.

CPU temps? Could be throttling from cooler issues - sticker, not seated correctly etc or case does not have enough flow.

SSD/HDD? If your running Windows or your games off a HDD that would be your issues.

Whatever gives you the most for your money and fits your requirements.

I would lean to AMD just for the upgrade path if both options are around the same price/performance.

I switched sides after about 12 years of using AMD CPUs (a 12700k was cheaper to build than 5800X), and this mini beast was a very very good first impression of Intel for me.

Good work on picking what works out best for your budget and not sticking to a specific brand. Everyone needs to do this.
