Hello, I have a Zotac GeForce 1070ti GPU and an Intel 7th gen I7700K processor. I’m considering upgrading my motherboard and CPU, as well as increasing RAM from 16 to 32 GB. My goal is to upgrade to an Intel i9 9900K. I expect performance limitations with the graphics card but want to know how severe they are. Will this upgrade make a difference or won’t it deliver any benefits? Thanks!

When handling VIDEO or heavy multi-tasking workloads, export times will noticeably improve. Gaming performance will see boosts thanks to higher frequency and more cores, though you'll remain limited by your GPU. The 1070Ti should handle smoother operation because of its CPU design optimized for multicore games.

You're just starting out, right? It seems unclear what "use" means here. Could you clarify what you're referring to so I can give you the right information?

It makes sense, I usually play games with friends but occasionally stream. I just wanted to confirm there wouldn’t be any downsides since I plan to upgrade my GPU later.

In gaming, the GPU can limit your performance, but upgrading it is worth considering. Why choose an i9 9900K over an i7 9700K or i7 10700K? Since you're replacing the board, you could save the money and invest in a better graphics card and other improvements.

It depends on what you're comparing. The eighth generation offers improvements over the seventh, but whether it gives better results varies by use case and software.

For gaming, the 9900K offers little improvement over the 7700K. Upgrade the 7700K and keep using it for another generation. Performance is now hitting 5GHz+ levels, and the 7700K can coexist with the 9900K (or any of them) at that speed. In my opinion, it's not worth upgrading just for gaming, especially if you're concerned about bottlenecks.
