I have a fairly new i5 11600k + a black Nzxt N7 Z590

With no throttling, power limit is high and it gets hot doing aida 64 cpu,cpu fpu and gpu stability test,without temps are actually normal

I first wanted a 65 watt cpu but no 65 watt 11gen cpus is for sale (used), more core,threads,more power lower tdp, price of an 11700 is as much as 13400f (which i want to avoid paying)

Then i found out an i5 13400f is better and has 10 core (knew about the core), 50% more expensive then an i5 12400f which is a 65 watt cpu and has a little better perfomance in games then my 11600k (single core perfomance,ipc), so to get lower power consumption, 50% higher power consumption on an 11600k (stock which mine isn't) is not impossible and a little more performance i wnat to go to intel 12/13 gen.

Alone the fact that my 11600k has a much much higher power limit would make the difference even bigger then 50% (in theory), the 50% comes from youtube videos like this one

without making to big of a the diffrence in price on the upgrade to 12/13 gen, i would need a low budget 12/13 gen mb with 2 pci e slot, lots of usb port on the i/0 panel, 2 m.2 slots with atleast 1 shield,heatsing and heatsink on the vrms I prefer atx

What would you recommend ?
