Upgrade to 13900k from 12700k

The short answer is that I haven’t and do not really know what level of improvement you may achieve. That said it sounds like the 13900k is a good CPU.

  1. Does your motherboard definitely support the 13900k? And if it does are there any aspect about it that may hinder the full potential of the processor?

  2. Before you go to any additional expense have you tried lowering just a few settings slightly to gain a smoother experience. There’s a good video somewhere that compares loads of the various setting for visual comparison. I would suggest that would be a good place to start rather than throwing money at it. You already have a pretty good machine, if it were me I would aim to make it work for me and consider a more comprehensive upgrade in the future when 13900k and 4000 series Nvidia cards have been surpassed.
