You're considering an upgrade for gaming purposes. In Denmark, the prices are around $490 for the i7 10700K and $550 for the 5800X. Since you mainly play games, you might want the faster option—go with the 5800X if it fits your budget.

The 5600X is a better choice if you can locate it in stock at a fair price. In gaming, it outperforms the 10700K and offers better value, while being more affordable than the 150$ premium for an additional core.

The 10700k remains a strong choice for 1080 and 1440P quality. The best value hinges on the overall package you choose, including the board cost.
