Hello everyone. First, I want to clarify my full PC specs before asking my question:

  • Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 5600G with Radeon Graphics
  • GPU: RTX 4060 8GB Asus Dual Fan
  • RAM: VENGEANCE® LPX 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 3600MHz
  • Display: Asus TUF Gaming VG259Q3A (24.5-inch, 1080p, 180Hz)
  • Storage:
    1. Crucial P2 500GB NVMe SSD
    2. 3TB WD Blue HDD
  • Motherboard: Gigabyte B450M S2H V2
Recently, I’ve been experiencing unstable gaming performance and frequent frame drops. I suspect the CPU might be bottlenecking the GPU, so I plan to sell my current CPU, motherboard, and RAM to upgrade to an Intel i5-14400F + Asus Prime B760M-A DDR4. My budget is tight, but I use this PC for gaming and engineering software.

Questions:

  1. Will upgrading to the i5-14400F significantly improve gaming and engineering software performance?
  2. I’ve heard about issues with 14th-gen Intel CPUs. Are these problems still present in the i5-14400F?
Thank you for your help, and sorry for the long post.
 
i searched if i sold my cpu to buy ryzen 7 5800x it will cost me $100.
and if i sell the motherboard with cpu and buy (i514400f + b760) will cost me 130
Which will be better from 2 choices if I neglect 30$ ?
