Short answer: NO.

- OC? 8700K (head/cooler)
- Gaming Comp/FHD? 8700K (HT/8 cores are almost not supported by any game anyway)
- Gaming 2K/4K? 8700K (GPU limit)
- Streaming? 8700K (HT) ...or then just the i9-9900K or Ryzen
- Rendering? 9700K (8C) ...or better Ryzen

So unless you're doing/gaming something really specific that benefits (immensely) from the 2 extra cores - don't.

Hello Together I have an "MSI MPG Z390 Gaming Edge AC" with an "i5 9600k" and a RTX 2070 Super. Would the upgrade be worth it and does the motherboard even fit? Thanks in advance Greetings

...the "MSI MPG Z390 Gaming Edge AC" fits, keep the i5 9600k, an update to an i7 9700k is not worth it! Besides, this isn't really action from digitec today at all! There is already the i7 9700kf for 360 francs! It's the same CPU without a graphics card, which you don't need anyway!

I ordered this CPU a few days ago, it arrived (with the MSI z390 Gaming Edge) old board out and new reihn everything wired and turned on. The pc lights up, the fans turn, the ram lights up and the graphics card too. But I just can't get a picture - it always says that no cable is connected. I have already researched and tried everything possible, but to no avail. I have tried it onboard with the graphics card with 3 different screens and NOTHING. Thank you very much for any suggestions. :( Greetings
