Hi all,
I would like to exchange my old PC with the new one and I am in doubt between the i7 or i9. The price difference is only 200€ if I look in the long term it's nothing. For GPU I would wait for 4070 I think or take the used 3090, that's why there is no GPU inside the specs. Just for your info I don't overclock, so I guess I don't need the best mobo, just looking for some price performance that is needed (I assume i9 needs a better one than the i7). I am open to changes also because I could overlook something even in Mobo's choice.
What I am looking at is:
a) i7-13700K build
CPU: Intel i7 13700K
RAM: KINGSTON FURY Beast RGB 64GB 5600 (2x32GB)
CASE: Lian Li O11 EVO
Mobo: ASUS TUF GAMING Z790-PLUS WIFI
SSD: Samsung 990PRO 2TB
Fans: BeQuite! Light wings RGB 120mm - 7 pieces
AIO cooler: EK-Nucleus AIO CR360 Lux D-RGB
b) i9-13900K build - Here I am struggling with which mobo to take?
CPU: Intel i9 13900K
RAM: KINGSTON FURY Beast RGB 64GB 5600 (2x32GB)
CASE: Lian Li O11 EVO
Mobo: Which, would need help here:
1.) Z790-AORUS-ELITE-AX
2.) MSI PRO-Z790-P-WIFI
3.) ASUS ROG Strix Z790-H Gaming WIFI DDR5
4.) MSI PRO Z790-A Wifi
5.) ASUS ROG STRIX Z790-E GAMING WIFI DDR5 - would say it's much more expensive, so I don't know if it can offer much more than previous ones, because I am not an overclocking dude.
SSD: Samsung 990PRO 2TB
Fans: BeQuite! Light wings RGB 120mm - 7 pieces
AIO cooler: EK-Nucleus AIO CR360 Lux D-RGB
What do you guys think? At first, I was 100% I would go with the i7, but now I see the only price difference is 200€ which is acceptable for me, but will I see much benefit in my work from the i9 compare to the i7? Let us say mainly I use Catia, Solidworks, some renders in Lumion, and Keyshot.
Looking forward to your answers/advice.
Have a nice day!
Best regards.
