Yes, the i5 9600K remains a solid CPU for many tasks, though its performance is limited by its age and lower clock speeds compared to newer models.

It's a completely empty port and the 3600 surpasses it in almost all aspects.

Based on your earlier comments, it seems you're unsure about purchasing it right now.

What is the cost? Do you already possess it or are you purchasing it? It's not too expensive, but there are usually more favorable alternatives if you're acquiring it at MSRP.

But only for a short time... :I (6 cores 6 threads works well, but usually drops to 4 cores with 8 threads)

Is there an updated or improved Intel CPU available at the same cost?

I mentioned earlier that no standard Intel CPU handles this, but the 3600 should.

Ensure you have the board and CPU before proceeding; otherwise, it's a nonviable setup. Consider using Zen 2, Comet Lake, or delay until Zen 3 is available.

It varies based on the cost you receive.
