Hey I currently have a MSI Z390 gaming pro carbon https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/MPG-Z390-GAMING-PRO-CARBON-AC Paired with a i5 9400F. Is it worth me upgrading now to a i9 for example? Is now the best time or should i wait a bit longer? Cheers
don't know what the budget is , but i think a 9700k would be a nice upgrade and from what i've just checked , they're really cheap at the moment i myself have a 8700k and haven't thought about upgrading , every benchmark i've seen the 8700k is the better choice , even over i9 to i10 there hasn't been a reason To upgrade , cause games don't use more then 6 cores but the 9700k is cheaper then a 8700k now , and they run about the same fps i like the 8700k more because it has double threads , like processors should have
I was going to make it a final CPU upgrade. And then concentrate on my GPU next. Which is a GTX 1070. I could get an i9 9900k for about 330 quid atm. ( I'm counting on it not really getting cheaper. ) But hopefully it does obviously. I'm asking if I should wait?
Is it true that the i5 9400f is practically the same as the i5 9600k but without being unlocked? Also the Intel Core i7-9700T sounds quite good being at 35w.
