  • according to userbenchmarks (which is deeply flawed in general, but here it’s a good indicator), the 14600k is only 13% better for 300 euros. in general, CPUs can stay relevant for more than 5 years, i know someone who was still sucessfully running a 3000-gen intel CPU until recently. yes, you’re somewhat leaving performance on the table, but in reality most games you’ll play will most likely be GPU limited anyway. buying a 14600k will not result in 13% more FPS, if it results in FPS gains at all. you should wait at least 2 more generations before upgrading.
