Should really just buy an R7 2700/3700X instead if you're looking for a PC

 i7 9700. 4.7Ghz.

you can set on the mobo multi core enhancement, so all core go to 4.7Ghz

I wouldn't give up the extra multi-threaded performance for 10% more fps when it's already pretty fast for gaming.

The R7 2700 is also only $200 right now

This is wrong, you cannot use MCE on a locked processor.

BLCK to 102.98mhz is the best you can do to increase it's frequency if you have a Z chipset.

 

maxing out turbo boost window, removing all power saving features on bios or XTU to unlock TDP also is something to do, but all in all you won't get the all cores frequency as high as the single core turbo ever.

But I should be able to find decent comparisons on YouTube? If it’s that cheap and is better than my 8700k I’d go get one this weekend and find out.

It would only apply for a brand new system, there's no reason to replace an 8700K for gaming for a long while.

 

It's 10-15% the intel chips in gaming, but either has more cores or threads at the same price or lower. for anything besides gaming.

I have a need to replace it. If the next game is as bad as this one, ill

be stuck using an old gpu as I have no cpu head room to up grade. 

 

As much as I prefer a dual system to stream, I also have no choice.

? the 8700K is like in the top 5% of best CPUs for gaming still, there's really no reason to spend a lot replacing it for little gain.

Guess that says a lot about cpus right now. How many cpus are in that scale for it to be in the top 5%

The 9700K/9900K and anything newer like the 10 series are probably in that top 5%.

Anything HEDT or Ryzen 5/7 would be in the top 15-10% and you don't need to really worry about much else.


The 9000 series had <5% IPC gains and didn't push the clock speeds much higher.

 

Even the i7 2600K could hit 4.8-5ghz on really nice chips, with a bit of overkill voltage.

I get that you have a 240hz display, but as long as your 8700K is at or near 5ghz and you have 3000/3200mhz RAM you're fine, as some games will be engine limited and won't get higher fps even with a faster CPU, like say a 5.2ghz 10 series chip that's coming soon.

Doesn’t matter if I use my 120hz monitor. The cpu being at or near 100% usage is the problem. Thus why I would prefer a better one.

Do you really need more than 180fps vs 185 or 190fps?

 

You can just turn up your graphics settings and force a GPU bottleneck or limit your fps if you need to free up CPU resources.

Actually the turbo clocks are:

 

4.7GHz for cores 0-1

4.6GHz for cores 2-3

4.5GHz for cores 4-7
