Is the 10700k still fast and good for 1440p and 60hz Gaming ?

Is this CPU still good and fast ?

[SkilledRebuilds]

Most generations back can do 60FPS gaming, it's not actually a heavy task really...

Many game engines can scale to 60fps given the most modest CPU horsepower.

Go look at 10700K reviews at 1080p Ultra (GamersNexus has HEAPS of comparative data) with a FAST GPU, FPS scales up pretty well...

On NEWER reviews (12600/12700/13700) you can see even if they don't show 10700K they usually have 10600K/10900K values stated which is helpful in a sense.

 

Keep in mind you only stated about a MINFPS of 60FPS or better then it's clear to me it's actually overkill.

Thanks

so right now there is no point to upgrade to for example 14700k if i'm playing at 60 fps only ?

i also have 32GB ram and Spphire RX 6700XT

It's not like the 10700K can't provide the SIMPLE 60FPS you are after.

Many of the Games don't use all cores, so core strength matters (IPC/Latency) while newer generations will uplift performance of the MAXFPS/AVG/MIN, it's not even an issue because the term "Whats the GOAL" is important... the goal being 60FPS and the CPU isn't even phased providing 60FPS in almost all games but the problematic broken ones, so you are good to go keep using the 10700K (in my opinion)
I'm on a 10850K (10c20T minus -100Mhz from 10900K) and it's overkill for me too...

i mean as long as it isnt going below 60fps (and that drop not being the gpu ls fault) then just keep using it, besides you can still overclock the 10700k and cometlake imc afaik is capable of around 4400mhz with vccsa/io at 1.45v so you can also oc the rams for an extra boost ontop of a cpu oc

 

yes a 12600k will run circles around the 10700k then theres the 13600k running circles around the 12700k then theres the 7800x3d giving the 14900k a run for its money but thats only if you are cpu bottlenecked, maybe an x3d cpu would help in a game like factorio or whatever that can really leverage the cache but otherwise youll be fine with a 10700k depending on the game

 

also you can oc the gpu since thats probably your limit, very simple process of just tweaking some sliders

More than enough at 60Hz, upgrade your monitor first

We need context. What games? Witcher 3, RDR2, Metro Exodus? Easy. Esports game where you need 240+fps? I think it will be enough.
