You're looking to boost your PC performance by swapping parts. The i9-13900K paired with the ASUS ROG Strix Z790-F and Corsair 64 GB DDR5 RAM should deliver strong gaming and multitasking capabilities. Your existing Gigabyte Aero 4080 is a solid base, but upgrading to the newer components will enhance stability and speed. An 850W PSU should suffice for this build unless you plan heavy workloads. Let me know if you need more details!

Technically it will suffice, though I personally believe a 1000W PSU would be preferable. A 13700k rating performs similarly to a 13900k in terms of output, but it does provide better cooling capacity. Also, keep in mind for future projects and for reference, topics like these should be placed in the New Builds and Planning section.

The 850W PSU is sufficient for regular use; overclocking will really test even this unit. Your selected components are solid, but it's hard to confirm their value versus the cost—there might be cheaper alternatives available. Create a list on PCPartPicker and double-check the country settings so prices are accurate.

850W should accommodate a CPU around 250-260W and a GPU of 320W with some extra capacity. The OP didn’t specify a cooler? Cooling options like a 280mm or 360mm AIO work well, especially when power limits are turned on. Performance drops minimally while power usage drops noticeably. You might not notice a difference with a 13600K, and saving money by choosing a 13900K is possible if you’re okay with less. If you need more than just gaming, the 13900K shines significantly.

I’m thinking about what tasks would push those limits—something heavy like processing large datasets or running complex simulations.

Thanks a lot for the response. My PSU is a be quiet! Pure Power 12M 850W. I purchased this because it has the 12V connector for the 4080, as I don’t trust the splitter. The pricing isn’t too much of an issue since it’s backed by the company. Thanks for your concern!

The PSU should work just fine unless you push it too hard.

Compares 4080 to earlier models; works well with 3080 and 13700k on a vintage 850W Seasonic Focus Plus Gold setup.

I rely on a 360mm AIO (NZXT Kraken Z73) for After Effects and 3D work, which is why I’d pick the 13900k. But if 13600K works just as well, I’d go with that instead.

The 13900K offers significant performance gains, making it a worthwhile investment. Puget discusses its creator workloads in this article: https://www.pugetsystems.com/labs/articl...er_Effects. A key point is that the 360mm AIO will handle the heat effectively.
