My 6700k has served me for 7 years and looking to make a new rig.

[Budget] 3-3.5k

[Purpose] Mostly graphic editing software (3 monitors) / light gaming

[Hardwares that will be re-used] SSD & HDD / RAM 32GB DDR4

[Games & software that use frequently] Adobe

[Location] Selangor / KL

[Personal preferences]
Intel 13700 (If can la, dont mind topup abit)
DDR4 board, don't really need high end features since I won't be maximizing it except maybe for future SSD upgrade.
Flexible on GPU/Resolution since I rarely game these days.

Whats it's looking like from a perspective of someone who is trying to upgrade to the latest sockets from 6th Gen Intel?
AM5 or Arrow Lake?

[B][Budget] 7k, can extend budget if it's a reasonable upgrade.

[Purpose]
Home / Work usage / MONHUN WILDS

[Hardwares that will be re-use]
Monitors

[Monitor resolution]
1080p

[Games & softwares that use frequently]
Games: I only want to play Monster Hunter WILDS in coming Feb, doesn't necessarily have to play on max settings.
Software: Mostly Lightroom, Photoshop, 3 monitor productivity setup.

[Personal preferences] i7/Ryzen 7 preferred no need OC, can compromise on lower end GPU's.

Is it worth it it to bump it up to 9700x for productivity? I don't really care about game performances, PC will be mostly on 24/7.
I noticed it has almost the same specs and TDP, but is the RM300+ addition worth it?

Appreciate the link,

Im not really keen on getting on blue camp as the upgrade path is very limited for LGA1700.

Lets say I can wait till Feb, you guys think by that time LGA 1851 can mature to be even considered as a viable option?

As of now I'm 70% leaning on getting AM5 for 9700X, the cost jump to 9900X and getting suitable mobo is too much and the potential would definitely be wasted for what I'm doing with my PC.

I do use handbrake like twice a week to hardsub vids, kinda forgot to mention that but I don't think that's enough to justify as a reason to upgrade because I rarely uses it.

To clarify Im not really running home server with the PC, its just that Im a lazy mofo who dont want to turn off his PC so I can remote in anytime I want when I'm not at home.
Yeah I don't use Wake on LAN.



One more question to everyone, is the performance jump from nvme 3.0 to 4.0 really big?
Cause I do have one extra 980 1TB 3.0.

Hello bosses, need you guys help with 2 quotations to show my bosses to buy PC for monitoring purposes

[Budget] RM3500, RM5000

[Purpose] 24/7hr 365d PC for NOC

[Hardwares that will be re-use] 4 1080p downscaled 55inch TV's

[Monitor resolution] 4 1080p downscaled 55inch TV's

[Games & softwares that use frequently] Grafana, Zabbix, Splunk, multiple browser windows

[Personal preferences] at least 32GB RAM, GPU with same output ports (not same also can la)

[Location] KL

As the release of 5070ti is sometime around this month, I've made some change of mind upgrading from 1080p to 1440p from my previous plan.
Heard Intel kinda fixed the problems of their Core Ultras lineup with firmware and windows updates, and it somewhat need to have high speed CUDIMM to make it work best.

Right now, I am still undecided on which camp to go this this to replace my aging 6700k, might need some nudge from the sifus here.

[Budget] Under 10k for Rig only, going to need some good 27inch monitor recc too

[Purpose] Productivity mix with slight gaming (Monhun Wilds)

[Hardwares that will be re-use] 1080p monitor

[Monitor resolution] 1440p

[Games & softwares that use frequently] Monster Hunter Wilds, Lightroom, Photoshop, Large PDF Editing (Blueprint), Handbrake, Multiple RDP.

[Personal preferences] Will pair 1440p as main monitor and existing 1080p as side monitor.

So I need to get better air cooler to avoid thermal throttling? or just go AIO?
if i7 is not enough for draw the best perf of 5070TI, something drastic needed to be done. Imagine the incoming shitstorm.
