9400f

Hello! What is a good option 9th gen upgrade for this cpu? I recently upgraded to a rtx 4060 and im feeling that my cpu cant keep up with my gpu (bottlenecking right?) What is a good upgrade for this?

As expected, on all 6 cores, the speed never goes above 3.89GHz, which is normal. However, I expected it would reach the advertised 4.1GHz on a single core, but if I run a benchmark of some sort, it will only go to 4.08GHz max, never above that. Is this expected behavior?

As the title implies, is the iGPU physically absent from the silicon die or is it still there, but defective (failed QA testing for example) and therefore disabled?

So I am about to build a PC. My idea is that I buy an i5-9400F and overclock it, but I am not really familiar whether I have to buy a high-end motherboard to do so or not. Also, what does unlocked and locked CPU mean and how do I unlock a locked one. And, what's a good alternative to the 9400f...

I have newly purchased the Asus Z390 and Intel Core i5-9400F with 2x8GB Corsair Vengeance LPX 3000 MHz. When I played games like Far Cry 5, Battlefield V and Fortnite, the frequency is only 2970 MHz, is that because I have not updated the BIOS? I saw everyone is getting 3905 MHz!!
