Upgrading cpu

[Gamertime]

Budget (including currency): $600

Country: USA

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Pretty much all of the new titles in 1440p, 144 hz

Other details: I currently have an i5 4670k which I believe I bought sometime in 2014. Looking to get either the i9 109000k or the 5900x, but to be honest I don't think it's worth the time and effort to try and get a 5900x. The 10700k was also an option if I wanted to save money, but right now I'm very indecisive. I was also lucky enough to snag an rtx 3070 but now I don't have as much time to stalk the restocks.

Why not a 10850K?
