Greetings people

 

Thinking about upgrading my CPU which is i3 9100f , M/B that I have is : Asus Rog Strix z390 e gaming

Could you please suggest which one should I go with , mostly aiming for the gaming , and CPU cooler suggestion will be also very good 

 

Thanks

Could you say which all games . So that we could suggest the best CPU for the workload. Like for some games it needs more cores and some need more speed than cores. Also please mention the budget

If my answer is correct or is helpful please mark it as the solution. Quote me in your post to summon me. Beware that after summoning me ill never leave.

9600k, 9700k, 9900k

 

Mild, medium, hot. 

 

Aircooling for 9600k you can use a much smaller cooler, wouldn't use stock cooler though. 

9700k/9900k Nhd15s/nhd15

 

AIO for a 9600k, pretty much anything. 

 

AIO for 9700k 240mm min

AIO for 9900k, bigger the better. 

 

Or... A slight boost would be a 9400, no oc though and you still might bottleneck with the GPU.  Pretty cool temp wise chip.  Stock fan or whatever on that if your case has good airflow.
