if you're patient you should probably wait... if not 14th gen is a great upgrade

What is it struggling with you want more CPU specific performance for?

11700KF isn't a slouch and can provide LOW Detail gaming in the Hundreds of FPS and with GPU bound settings it'll hit 60-120fps pretty easily in most games that are not problematic ports...

Maximums - Asus Z97-K /w i5 4690 Bclk @106.9Mhz * x39 = 4.17Ghz, 8GB of 2600Mhz DDR3,.. Gigabyte GTX970 G1-Gaming @ 1550Mhz
