It wouldn't require any expense to upgrade from 10850K to 11700K. I'm considering it and think it's a good idea because the overclocking looks comparable, and you'd get higher IPC afterward.

I wouldn't go that route. The specs show 10850K - 10C/20T and 11700K - 8C/16T. Unless you want the better IPC and can handle losing two cores and four threads, stick with the 10850K.

CPUs are quite balanced, but I wouldn’t trade two cores for anything. There’s also a recent discussion on this subject that explores the advantages of each option.

The 11700k offers no real advantage over the 11700k. In single-core performance, it doesn’t even show improvement. The 10850k stands out as the stronger option overall.
