    To be real with you here, at 1080p the most you'll need for max settings 1080p is a 3060 if a solid 60 is all you're going for. WIth a 3080 you should have a 1440p screen, in which case the CPU will matter a lot less. So if you have money to spare and you already have a 9700K, just get a better monitor and invest in a good GPU, keep that CPU till some meaningful innovation happens.

    A good rule un upgrading is, that you need at least a 50% uplift (normally 100%) to justify a upgrade.
    30% is not justifiably in my opinion. DDR5 would give you another 6% maybe.
    At least you took the most price sensible option in using your existing DDR4.

      When you finally upgrade to 1440p someday, you will regret having spent so much time with 1080p. It’s a huge difference in clarity and detail, and you’ve clearly got a system that can handle it. Prices have come way down too, so there’s really no good excuse unless you don’t have the coin… I made the jump 3 years ago and I was thrilled with the difference. Every single old game in my library got a big increase in graphical fidelity. It was like installing a high res texture pack on all of my old titles. Made me super excited to replay through them all.

I have a feeling that at higher resolutions, the difference would drop significantly.

Thats not including the fact that you need a better mb to support those cores and a powersupply with 2 additional 8 pin connectors(i didn't have one before). So i personally dont even see a reason to upgrade. I use my pc for stuff besides gaming, like CADing and slicing. And even for that there are negligible returns.

    ive just upgraded my 9700k to a 13700k and the performance jump is massive. the cpu wasnt the only upgrade i went from a mega budget z390 ud from gigabyte to a high end asus rog z690-e and went from a 16gb 3200mt kit to a 32gb 6000mt kit but I think its well worth it and getting a motherboard more inline with the cpu give me much more performance so for me now my gpu is bottlenecking the system.

      What GPU do you have that's bottlenecking?

      @@soul54 Yeah then you can buy the 4090 and then sell 2070.
      It's worth it to get 4090 with that CPU that you have.
      You will be able to run 1440p at ultra + Ray Tracing ultra at high frame rates

    I'm in an awkward spot and would love some input/advice.
    I have an rtx 3070ti and i7 9700k, both stock. Is it worth overclocking would be my first question?
    Second question is, I have 32 gb of ddr4 Corsair 3200mhz but I've had to run it at 3000mhz else it crashes. I presume it's due to running it over 4 slots 8x4 sticks. Some reason it just blue screens on startup unless I have it running at 3000mhz rather than 3200.. could this make a big difference in performance? Thanks for the help! I really can't afford a new cpu yet so a new MOBO and Cpu is out of the question.

      3000 -> 3200 on DDR4 is basically no difference. Best bet is to go with the default XMP profile. Overclocking can get you 5-10% more performance at the cost of 10-20% more power/heat.

    So you bought an Intel 13th gen, and a new motherboard that uses DDR4? The uplift in gaming by switching to DDR5 is practically the entire reason to purchase the 13600k. Jeez

  • @ghost500e

    The 13600k can run 5,5-5,6Ghz stable with a descent AIO, so yep there is quite some more performance left on the table.
    And if you go with 6000-6400mhz DDR5 you will se another 10% lift in gaming performance, but not in heavy workloads. ddr5 seem to be most benefactory towards gaming, and you need to spend a truckload of cash to get some really good ones. Only recomended if your old pc is so out of league that you go for a totally new build. Otherwise this video is very spot on, if you are on a tighter budget. I myself is almost done ordering in the last bits and pieces on my 4000$ rig-build.
    To give one hint i went for a z690 apex board😜 so the bar was set from the getgo. Psu asus rog thor 1200w and nvme:s 5x samsung 980pro 2tb left to buy in december and spending the holidays on building👌
