It's not, and the 5800X3D performs better in gaming than the 7000 series, actually even superior. It’s more suitable for the future, though it remains expensive. We haven’t found a game that fully utilizes features like PCIe 5 or DDR5 yet. Still, you can stick with the 5600X, i5-12400F, or 5800X, i7-12700F—there are plenty of choices depending on what you need for your PC, whether it’s gaming, Adobe, or other tasks.

What level of detail are you using? The 8700k handles 1440p nicely since the workload moves more to the GPU. If you're looking to improve, definitely upgrade. Right now it's a bit tricky because CPUs aren't much different at higher resolutions.

You're focusing on 1440p with high refresh rates, which is solid for now. The 3080 handles it well, but whether to stick with the 8700K depends on upcoming updates—keep an eye on new features before they arrive.

13600k surpasses the 5800x3d spec. It's unclear what you're observing. Clearly, higher resolutions narrow the gap, but the 13600k offers better performance.

You're correct, but the focus is on the cost and storage capacity. It remains higher.

Consider upgrading if the 8700k doesn’t meet your desired performance. If it’s merely outdated and newer CPUs exist, they might be worth the investment. I’d modify it to a 5GHz version and test the results. Then decide based on your needs. At 1440p it still offers strong power, though actual FPS depends on your games. Avoid spending unless necessary—other options could deliver more value for less.

I just want to share my thoughts on this. I have a 5GHz 8700K (DDR4 3200), a 5.1GHz 10900K (DDR4 4000), and a 5.5GHz 13700K (DDR5 6000). All of these have been paired with a 3080 at some point. While the 13700K feels smoother than the 8700K, the gap between them isn’t huge in games, even though the 13700K offers nearly 60% more single-threaded speed. I’m sure it will change someday, but not with a 3080 or in most of the games I play. I really wish I had invested in a better desk than the 13700K.

The 13600k offers a more comprehensive experience. A DDR4 board remains an option, and the MSI Pro A is frequently available for $159 to help cut costs. The 5800x3d makes sense only with an existing AM4 configuration. Even then, the 5900x provides a stronger processor choice.
