Right now your gaming rig runs a 10850K, while your small Unraid/plex uses a 11600K. The 11600K is on an ITX board, and the other system has an ATX board. You're considering an ITX build—deciding whether to replace the CPUs or if the 11600K would work for gaming and VR capture. If you swap and remove the waterblock, you'd need to update the BIOS on the ATX board. It's a good idea if you don't have to change it. Thoughts?
