Hi All,

Bought my 7600K a few years ago (when 4 core i5's were cool).

I've noticed in games like R6 Siege, Battelfield, and even Resident Evil 2, are maxing all 4 cores out and I feel like im not letting my new Sapphire Vega 64 get to it's full potential.

I've looked at loads of videos, and all the bar charts are different on so many channels, im not sure what to believe.

I don't have unlimited budget, but I'd like to get something that will last a few years.

Looked at the obvious like the 8700k, 9700k, but AMD seems to be pulling me with the cost/value.

What's the thoughts on a 2600x? Is a 2700x really worth £100 more, just for gaming.

I know it's not gonna be blazing fast compared to the 7600k, but will the additonal cores/threads stop my bottleneck situation?

Appreciate any feedback.
