I've been thinking about upgrading my aging cpu/mb/ram but the current prices have me on the fence still. Microcenter has a combo deal for a i7-12700k, Gigabyte Z690 MB and 16GB for $350. Is it worth it or stick with what i have for now?
What has worked for me in the past was spending $120 or less for a highly rated MB and roughly $250 for a CPU and that would be a great upgrade at the time. That formula has worked allowing me to happily game for a handful of years. I'm not able to work that formula now. I keep ending up in the $500 to $600 range.
