I've waited too long to return to the King of FPS. This chip is amazing. I missed you intel. The PC world is strange. Always on the hunt for $50 savings. Too many games have CPU bottlenecks. I have long argued between buying a 3700x to replace my 2700x and a hard MB/CPU upgrade to Intel. But AMD let me down. My 2700x was never maxed out and I couldn't tell what was limiting me. The 3700x didn't promise much higher clock speeds, so I wasn't sure the upgrade would help. I'm playing Rust at 1440p and my GPU and CPU are at 60% or less with a frame rate of only about 70 fps. First test with stock 10700k, I have 135 fps, maximum graphic settings. My GPU is now 99% loaded and the game looks amazing. This chip works great in the factory. I don't know where all the bad heat forecasts are coming from, but it didn't happen. I haven't even overclocked it yet and to be honest I might not need it until I upgrade my 2080super. But that won't happen any time soon. I'm now hitting 144fps at max settings of 1440p in any FPS game and that was the goal. Thanks Intel, you made it. The 9th gen had some cost/heating issues and that made me try AMD and I'm glad to be back! For everyone who chooses a card. 10700k is ideal for gaming and streaming. If you're just gaming I think the 10600k is cheaper but offers the same performance. I see no need for 10900k.
