Im going to switch over to an ITX case, the Phanteks Enthoo Evolv Shift

I just got a new bigger monitor and some new studio speakers so my O11 mini(not so) if just too big it been relegated to the floor and this is killing my OCD..
Everything in my current case is ITX compatible apart from the board my question is do i just buy a board or do i switch cpu's too

no matter what i do a new board will cost say £150.. if i keep the 5600 i have that it. i sell my old board and case and done.
making the switch free ish.. or do i dump the chip and buy new..
in that situation i would sell the old chip and to total upgrade again around £150 after selling up, so not a massive amount..

my problem is i dont see me needing a new CPU for a good few years, and if i got an i5.. i would think its same same?

if i grabbed a i5-13600KF could i even keep it cool??
i wouldent go any higher than a 13600 i may even look at 12th gen but i feel 300 would be the max for a CPU
 
AMD definitely easier to keep cool for the same performance. Having said that, I'd be interested in buying your 5600 (to replace my 3600) :cry:

there is one in Bgrade that they wwill sell for £100, i made an offer for a friend but ended up getting a new one before they replied.

Please send your offers to my trust account or [email protected].
