Hi, I have been wanting to upgrade my current build (R5 3600 and the components below) as the CPU is lagging behind in 3D work (with heavy scenes) and Limits my usage of CPU based renderers in my work, In gaming - The times have caught up to it I think
Here is the relevant Info
Location : India
Parts to Upgrade : Cpu, Mobo, Psu, Cooler if needed
Budget : 80,000 Inr / 1000 USD (with taxes) but I am flexible upto 90k~100k max (Would be great if possible withing 80k)
Website for parts:
Pc Price tracker
(all the components that are available in the country with current prices)
My Pick for components
CPU: Ryzen 9 7900 (non x)
Mobo: Gigabyte b650 Aorus Elite ax
PSU: Corsair RM850e 850w
Ram: 32gb (16x2) DDR5 6000mhz
Gpu: 50 series 70 lineup (5070 or whatever they launch in the series with 16gb vram) (
not to be included with the current build but as a consideration for power supply, 4070 ti super eq.
)
My Current Build (Reusable parts)
Gpu: Rtx 2070 Super
Storage: 3.5" Hdd - 1x 4tb, 1x 2tb, 1x 1tb | Nvme: 1x 512gb gen4, 1x256gb gen3
Cooler: Deepcool gammax 400 v2
Fans: 3x120mm case fans, 2x120mm PWM fans
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Casual use, 3D modelling (Blender, Substance painter, 3Ds Max, Unreal engine), Rendering (90% of the rendering on GPU, 10% of the projects on CPU based renderers), Casual Gaming (CS2, The finals), Photoshop, After effects

Overclocking: Yes, atleast 5.1 ghz all cores and Undervolting
----
Could you tell me if the components that I choose are compatible with each other (Mobo with the CPU and Overclocking, Psu with GPU and Cpu requirements)
An Intel build with the 14700k (I have no Idea about Intel side of things, a general one but not an informed one)
I want a build that can keep me afloat for long without any upgrade for a long time (4 years), Bang for the Buck and I don't want the most overkill thing, Just the sweetspot build
My work/Usage profile
- I use it for Freelance work and Browsing/Gaming, I do 3D models and Animations,
I use Blender as my primary software (More single thread usage while making stuff) and It uses GPU for rendering, I want to use 3Ds Max and Corona with some of my projects (Viable but it is all CPU and work is slower with the current build), Photoshop for Post-Processing and After-effects sometimes (This is lowest priority)
For gaming, just good fps are enough, I have 1080p 144hz monitor, Mostly I play FPS games - CS2, The Finals, COD but sometimes single player games - Pacific drive, Witcher, RDR2 etc
Thank you!

Was es dir gedacht, auf ein Ryzen 7 5700X mit 64 GB Arbeitsspeicher zu aktualisieren?

I would approach it this way:
13700k - 30,150
MSI Z790-S Pro Wifi DDR5 -
20,300
Corsair RM Series RM850e - 10349
G.Skill Ripjaws S5 Series 32GB (16GBx2) DDR5 6000MHz CL30 - 10,340
Overall: 71,139

Hi, thank you for your message!
Yes, I noticed the lag in CPU rendering performance.

Based on my experience, 32 GB is sufficient for me (I used 16 GB a few months back), and I haven’t needed more than that.
I don’t want to make another decision or upgrade soon.

It's a solid choice from the Intel perspective, appreciate!
1) No particular justification beyond the budget?
2) Does it perform better than the 7900 when pushed to higher speeds?
3) Would it require an all-in-one cooler?

I selected these parts according to the 14700k.
14700k - 37,850
MSI Pro Z790-P WIFI DDR5 - 22,090
CORSAIR RM850e 850W - 9,799
G.Skill Ripjaws S5 32GB (16GBx2) DDR5 6000MHz - 10,340
ARCTIC LIQUID FREEZER III 360 - 9,399
Should this improve things? I believe a 15k investment could be worthwhile since even a 7900x model requires an AIO.

The 13700k and 14700k are similar, differing by roughly 5% each, with the latter offering an additional 4 efficiency cores. This could help with your multi-threaded work, though it increases the cost by about 22% compared to the 13700k.

Thank you friend, I was planning to go with the 13th gen, but the ambient temperature here hits 50 degrees C during summers. I can’t find a cooler option and even if I did, it would cost over 6,000, which is a lot. It’s like that ‘a little more’ situation—if I spend 6k on a cooler now, why wait until I need an AIO for the 14th gen? Also, my current case doesn’t support this AIO, and I’m not sure if I’d be willing to spend that much. Could you recommend any other air coolers suitable for the 13700k?

Thank you! This was really useful in completing the setup.
Edit: I'm sorry to keep asking, but those MSI Z790 series boards appear to have Ethernet problems connected to the Intel networking chip. Looking for some other options.
