Unless you need to perform tasks that let the computer run unattended for extended periods, you won’t gain much from the speed improvement. Considering an upgrade, it makes sense to wait for AMD’s next socket release and ensure compatibility with AM4. These modest gains of 10 or 20% are less impactful in professional settings where they don’t significantly boost overall productivity.

That sounds solid. The Z370 is handling the 9900K at 5.1Ghz smoothly, and it seems the Z390s are equally capable.

To confirm with all of you, just fix what’s broken. For stock tasks, you don’t require a top-tier motherboard or cooler for a 9900k. The wife has a mid-range Gigabyte Z390M Gaming and a Cryorig H7 Quad Lumi. It handles it well.

I’d swap the old board for a sweet OC board to really push the performance of that Intel CPU—it was built for it.
