I'm planning a new build and I'm set on using an LGA 1700 socket motherboard. However, I'm struggling to decide which CPU to go for. There are so many options like the i5-13600K, i7-13700K, i9-13900K, and even the newer 14th gen processors.
My main uses will be gaming, streaming, and some light video editing. I'm looking for the best balance of performance, power efficiency, and value for money.
What do you think is currently the best LGA 1700 CPU? Is it worth waiting for any upcoming releases? Any insights on real-world performance would be greatly appreciated!
What is your budget ? If you don't mind the price, get the 14900K.
@king 14900K is currently $436 at Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/i9-14900K-Desktop-Processor-Integrated-Graphics/dp/B0CGJDKLB8/?tag=7649-20

Depends on the price.
