Since we don't know what's your PSU, it could also be time to change it.

Bottleneck calculators are wrong most if not all the times.
wait for zen 3 and check, if not then go with @Meganter's list or a 10600k which is just as good in gaming as a 10900k especially when overclocked.
and as for the board, check the gaming edge as well as that's a good board. but i would highly suggest waiting for zen 3.

in gaming, the 6700k is still decent, especially when overclocked and won't bottleneck a 2060 super. (in a sense that it will slow the 2060 super down, but there's always a bottleneck.). these should pair nicely.
but if you're set on moving to a different platform, wait for zen 3 and check what it has to offer. but as i said, the 6700k will handle a 2060 super just fine.
but budget? workload?

Hello,
Do you have a budget in mind ? If so in which currency and country ?

Meganter reacted to warhammer23 in T-Force XTREEM ARGB 16GB DDR4 3600 MHz
I had the Night Hawks RGB and love them to bits just because of the way they looked and how heavy they were.
But they were just 1 mm too tall for me to close the side panel in the DAN A4 SFX. When these new ARGB kits came out I was instantly hooked I mean personally I think they look absolutely stunning due to the clever design of using a mirror like plastic covered aluminium alloy heatsink which also lights up. Apparently they have Samsung B-Die ICs and are under the 51 mm for height requirement my case (49) so this should be interesting.
You have the option to select from up to three different frequency and timing option kits (3200, 3600 or 4000 MHz / CL14, CL16 or CL18). The price varies between $116 to $180. I think they do 32 GB kits at least what's on the website.
Not the most powerful CPU to do testings but the new 3100 so far is handling stuff pretty well. I got the new ASUS B550i STRIX ITX board and managed to OC the kits just on the stock D.O.C.P profiles from 3600 MHz to 4000 MHz! Then I even managed to lower the timings (at 1.45v VDIMM and 1.08v for the SOC) for the same frequency and thus having CL14-15-15-35 1T; basically replicating the more expensive sister kit with the same specs. Here are the results for the 4000 MHz on the stock profile and will add more info as I further tweak the stability and waiting for a newer bios and a better CPU.
So far they are quite cool and if you are into the RGB rave, they are quite stunning. Perfoamnce wise, so far I never had a kit that I can 'oc' just on the stock profiles for 400 MHz gains.

Meganter reacted to WkdPaul in Show off your latest purchases
The tablet has a hard time charging (when the screen is on and using it), both with it's own charger and the other 2.1A chargers I have ... so I went with a USB C charger (3A) and a powerline USB C cable !
So when it's low on battery, we can still use it without the battery draining (at first we thought the charger was broken), and also charging it is much faster now (it would take a few hours just to get it from 15% to 80%).
