Sure, I can help with that. Let's make it clearer.

It's great! My 12400F beats my 8700K by 1000 points even though both run at 4.7ghz. The 8700K is falling behind compared to newer parts. I still love it, especially with a budget GPU.

I understand your point, I believe I could hit 4.7 for several months and set aside money for the 12.7 million while working toward a final five-year goal.

You have five years from the 8700K mark, which makes sense. It seems the process worked fine when I did it, but now I'm not sure about the current setup. The core number 4 is getting hotter likely due to LN2, possibly causing the paste to fail underneath.

Keep it that way, okay? If it gets too warm it’ll slow down. You’re getting a new setup soon, so it’s fine. I’ve been using my 8700k for gaming lately, but I don’t check the temperature much anymore. Just stopped paying attention.
