Consider the situation carefully—stock is limited and the 5000 series won’t be available soon. Weighing your plans, it might make sense to hold off or stick with Intel if you’re confident in your upgrade path. Whether it’s worth waiting depends on your priorities and how much you value the 10700K now.

It seems quite reasonable to hold off, by all means.

For your holiday upgrade, AMD CPUs will be available again soon. These models offer improved gaming and productivity features—choose the 5600X for budget savings or the 5800X if you prefer more cores for multitasking. Both outperform the 10700K, with the 5800X providing greater core count for demanding tasks.

Before the standards came, I’d have chosen either option, but Intel’s situation is tough, so patience seems best.

Might as well wait for the 5000 to get in stock. I recommend setting an alert up for inventory. Intel Rocket Lake is the next launch and will probably be out in a 4 months or so which will put Intel and AMD neck and neck again. If you want something around Christmas then the 5000 series is really the only logical CPU option.

I’m curious about the differences between AMD and Nvidia’s stock situations. Both are expected to run out soon, but their timelines and reasons might vary. I’m not entirely confident about AMD’s restock schedule before the holidays.
