Cons

  • That upgrade isn't worth it. If you want an upgrade, then switch to AMD. As a former Intel fanboy this hurts me to say, but what you have right now is just a very inefficient heating system
  • Don't upgrade your CPU it's not worth it, just get an oled monitor and either lower the settings or use dllss
  • No, it will not be 30 FPS better. That's quite optimistic. At 1440p the difference will be minimal
  • The 12700 is still fairly competent and the 13900 isn't that much of an upgrade to be honest.
  • I don't see a world where the new CPU would give more than a 15% performance increase (of course depending on the game)

Don’t upgrade, it’s not worth it

That is not a significant upgrade at all. Sit tight until you're ready to upgrade that GPU. If you get it free then sure ig but don't pay for it. I think you should upgrade your GPU first.
