My PC has had a few rolling upgrades over the past 18 months or so and recently, I picked up an RTX 3090fe which has left me wondering about my previous CPU choice...
I game, edit photos and videos! Less on the video side at the time so, an i5 9600k felt like a fairly reasonable choice... Side note, I've never managed to get it stable over 4.8ghz so, the i9 at 5ghz is a factor too.
But, my gaming has recently fluctuated between 1440p/144hz and 4k/60 and with the 3090 I can't help but wonder about bottlenecks... It'll be some time before I go all out on a new build so I was wondering if spending out to get the i9 might be worth it right now.
I know it'll help with regards to content creation and such...
Any opinions would be appreciated - I'm stuck in a loop with my thought process...
