Intel 14th Gen Raptor Lake Refresh Full Lineup Leaks Out

That would mean another year of waiting. I dont want to do that if I can avoid it. My system is starting to show its age with certain titles at 4K.

Not sure what kind of games you play, but I'd say the CPU / motherboard upgrade would give you some nice performance boosts across the board. It would be especially apparent on turn-based games like Civ 6, GalCiv and so on.

Saying this as someone who came from a 10850K to a 12700KF. There are a lot of places outside of games that you'll see benefit as well, there's a big difference going from Skylake to AL and its derivatives. I don't know that a 14900K is necessary but up to you, a 14700K would be a solid option too IMO.

This guy went from 10700 to 13700K with a 3080Ti and posted his results. He re-used DDR4-3000. Pretty significant.

If I upgrade the GPU, I will have a CPU bottleneck.

Im running an i9 9900K @ 5GHz, 16GB RAM, Asus STRIX 3080Ti.

The 3080TI can already bottleneck the 9900K @ 1440p (I used to have a 10700k which is basically the same thing) and I would be CPU bottlenecked in a few titles.

I wonder how fast the 6000 or 6400 memory will be. Waiting the 14900K just for that.

Hoe many more years until we get a P+C+E processor?
