I’m still on a 10700k and skipped the whole Alderlake / Rapterlake / Raptorlake Refresh LGA 1700 platform. Just wondering how many Intel users out there also completely skipped the current platform and are waiting on what’s next in 2024.

I mostly just game at 4K 60fps and so far for the games I play my system is still holding up really well (paired with my rtx 3090). How about you guys?

      Brother! I’m still on the 8700. Stuck a 3080Ti in when my 1080 died of old age. Still runs everything I throw at it just fine. Even 4K games are perfectly playable. 60fps is enough. :)

        I’m on the 8600k bandwagon and I was lucky I upgraded my 1060 6G version to a 3070 just before the price hike. Still rocking it till this day with nice 1440p graphics.

      Only reason I upgraded from a 8700k was cause I wanted to get rid of frame drops in big teamfight in ow2 so I could stay above 240 at all times but other wise was still happy with it when I upgraded to a 13700k

      An 8700k at 5GHz is the virtually the same as a 10600k. The difference is so small you would never notice without acculturate benchmarks.
