Additional Comments:
Considering an i5-13600 KF as a new CPU, I'm struggling to select a suitable motherboard and cooling solution.
Reason for Upgrade:
I'm facing issues with BF 2042 and The First Descendant because my CPU struggles to match my GPU performance, often reaching 100% CPU usage.
Current Setup:
GPU: RTX 4070ti
CPU: Intel Core i5-8600K
Mainboard: MSI Z370 TOMAHAWK (MS-7B47)
Cooling: Fortis 3 HE1425
Ram: GOODRAM 32GB (2x16GB) 3600MHz CL18 IRDM PRO
Although I know the GPU won't fit, I recently acquired it and am now searching for the remaining components.
Appreciate your assistance ahead of time.
Welcome to the forums, newcomer! Please stylize your thread with info asked of in this thread; *How to Ask for New Build or Upgrade Advice* How to Ask for New Build or Upgrade Advice First off, respect where respect is due - this is an adaptation of the Animal's *How To Ask For New Build Advice* Sticky. I created this because there's a lot of posts nowadays asking for upgrade advice both on here and on the CPU forums, and I feel... forums. including where you're located, what your budget for your upgrade path is and what your preferred site for purchase is. We can then move forward with suggestions on how to effectively get the most out of your build. You forgot to mention the make and model of your case and the PSU. Include the age of the PSU as well if you're intending to recycle it for the upgrade path.
