Im obviously limited to lga 1151, which is not the biggest deal for me because the 9700k and 9900k are plenty but I heard both run hot and I dont really want to get another 125dollar cooler for it.
I dont think i want to overclock so I thought maybe the I9 9900 non k but since its 10 bucks less than the 9900k in my country, it feels weird. The I7 9700K is only 8 thread tho.

I5 9400F (looking to upgrade it)
Rtx 3070
Gigabyte aorus Z390 PRO WIFI
16gb ddr4 3200 ram
1tb ssd
1tb hdd
tx650m psu

With any of those processors your going to need some good cooling It's not like you can just slap the 9400 cooler on them and expect good results.
