So I’m currently running the 12th gen i7 3.60GHz and lately I feel like an upgrade might be due soon.
During heavy loads I usually have a game up such as Escape From Tarkov or Battlefield 2042 and various other games, but I also have discord up to stream and have my friends screens up as we play, and I also have chrome running with multiple tabs for maps, Crunchyroll, Netflix and such. (I watch anime in between matches and when I’m not too concerned about being competitive).
Would upgrading to 14th gen be worth it? I’d certainly like to upgrade from DDR4 to DDR5, so maybe a bundle upgrade would be in order?
That is pretty nice. Over here I often stream/record, and have optimized windows and cut out as much background app noise as possible. While it might be nice to not have to do that, I’m sure I’d keep doing it out of habit even with a more powerful cpu
