Seeking feedback on the Intel 11700K
Seeking feedback on the Intel 11700K
Checking if this processor works well with your ROG Z590-e is important. The Noctua DH15s should help manage heat, but keep an eye on temperatures. Using the 10700k offers better performance than the current setup, and some users report positive experiences. The 11700k is another option—see what others say about its temperature performance. Let me know if you need more details!
It's a bit warm and demands a lot of energy, but nothing an NH D15S can handle. It should maintain temperatures comfortably.
If you're upgrading from 3rd gen, then as suggested above, the i9 10850k is the better option. Same value and 2 extra cores, 4 extra threads. Unless you really need the extra single core IPC.
I was concerned about missing out on certain features without choosing rocketlake, such as PCIe 4.0.
You can still use your 2M2 PCIe 4.0 drives without RocketLake, as long as they're compatible with your motherboard.
