Question i5-12600k

[Palma1]

Been looking on getting the i5-12600k to replace my now getting old i7-800k , I mostly game and music production on my pc so paired with my 3080 will I get vale out of this upgrade ? Not that I’m having any issues with my 800k
Just now has it awhile . Any comment would be appreciated ;0)

Do you mean the 8700K? (is it running at stock speeds, or on a Z370/Z390 at all core 4.7+ GHz, etc.)

I'd personally refrain from upgrading if you are content/satisfied as is...(certainly, no need to upgrade just on the 'I've had it a while' -feeling, IMO)

AMD has it's AM5 efforts forthcoming, along with Intel's 13th gen...both occurring this year.

(If determined to upgrade, however, the 12600K is quite formidable, and an excellent choice, IMO)

Depending on your resolution you may see a decent uplift with a 3080 - what resolution are you using?
