I am planning to upgrade my CPU because i bought a 3070 and i dont know if the 14600kf will bottleneck more than the 13600k.

In my country the 14600kf is cheaper than the 13600k but im scared that the 14th gen will be too powerfull for my 3070

Thoughts?

    Too many unknowns to give you any good advice. You need to give info about your system and usage.

    • What CPU are you currently using?
    • What resolution and refresh rate are you using?
    • What types of games are you playing?

    I can say- in general there is no such thing as CPU being ‘too powerful’ for a GPU (you can over spend based on your budget though). And there is no difference between 13th and 14th gen performance so buy 13th gen if it is better price.

      I currently play at 1080p (60hz) and maybe in the future at 1440p and i will have either a 13600kf or 14600kf

      When it comes to games i mostly play all of the new ones, i want to have a pc powerful enough to be capable of running all of them at 1080p ultra
