currently have an i7 8700k paired with a RTX3060ti. i already have a Z490 motherboard with a low end i3 in a spare PC, would a worthwhile upgrade be getting an i9 10900kf (10core) and is the £300 mark worth it for a new one. Im in no rush so i could also wait for any 10 or 11 gen i7/i9 to popup in members market
 
I’d just stick with the 8700k unless your upgrading the GPU as well, save the cash and maybe get Zen5/Arrow lake next year.

Im only really playing Hell Let Loose at the moment at 1440p and its not that demanding, im not into the normal AAA anymore as they are just console ports mostly... although i am temped by cityskylines 2 but looks a bit of a buggy mess, so will let that settle in before i get it.
