Do you believe it's worthwhile? The review suggests Intel Core i5-13600K offers a solid upgrade, especially since DDR5 is recommended for the 13th generation. It adds value and performance that can improve over time as games use faster memory.

OC isn't really beneficial with new CPUs except for showing off. For a B660, MSI PRO-A is a better pick, though Asrock options aren't ideal unless you're indifferent about platform expenses.

The MSI PRO-A requires a BIOS upgrade and currently lacks a BIOS flashback feature.

The Gigabyte B660/M Gaming X supports BIOS flashback and typically matches the cost range of MSI A-PRO boards.
