Hi guys
I want a CPU for pure gaming.
not sure which one of coffee lake is the best for me
the 8700K has the best single core performance but
1- I'm not into overclocking
2- I have some temperature concerns
my PC will be running 24/7 and I play 5-10 hours a day and I don't want to be bothered by heat problems at any point
8700 8600K 8400
not sure which one is suitable for me
I prefer something doesn't run so hot and can be used with the stock cooler or 50$ cooler
what do you think
Do you have a high refresh rate monitor? If not, the 8400 would be plenty for gaming, and you could cool it just fine with an inexpensive aftermarket cooler (e.g. Cryorig H7 is $35 - I really wouldn't use the stock cooler for anything).
