A 12400 non K is enough for 4K lol.

Funny fact, higher res = less to no difference from CPU because of GPU bottleneck.

Depends on which game you would love to play and what fps targets are you aiming for, if it’s for competitive fps multiplayer with high refresh rate monitor then it would still be good but will be CPU limited at those resolution rather than using 14700k or 14900k, if your target is 60 fps for single player games then it’s more than enough.

Yes, the 14600K will be more than enough for 1080p.

Yes, of course. It is one of the best CPU to get right now and it is very powerful when gaming at 1080p.

For 95% of use cases, you should be fine

It’s more than enough, unless you seek 400fps paired with a 4090, then 14900k or 7800x3D would do a bit better (around +5%)

Jesus this is getting out of hand. Any CPU from the last 10 years is with fit 1080p

At 1080p it is not about the CPU it is about the fps you wanna have.

If you primary game you should a 12400f or a 12100f and spend the saved money on a much better gpu like the 4070 or the 7800xt

Get something cheaper like a 12400 or a 5600
