I'm doing my first build in almost 10 years next week upgrading from a 4770k so I feel ya.

Not your first build, but if you have any questions, feel free

What are you going with?
I did a little research last night on the 13700K.

My 5800X3D and 3090Ti do everything I need at the moment and then some. Temps never get over 60-65 and I play at full send 1440p 239fps. No need to upgrade until Nvidia and AMD get their shite together

This was basically me. Same CPU and roughly the same amount of time.
Anything current will be a huge upgrade. 4770k to 7700X was a huge upgrade.

The only usable 20 PCIE lanes did it in for me.
Not to mention the dead platform.

Yeah the no upgrade path is a killer even if it is faster for editing.

The memory controller is faster on Intel, no doubt.
AM5 still has its problems.

That RAM should be fine for either. It's the 6k plus that sucks for AMD.

Yeah 6K is the sweet spot for AMD it seems.
I almost grabbed the 42" LG C2 at BestBuy the other day they had an open box excellent for $650. Just too big end of the day. That's a steal though.

I'm waiting for that OLED shite to get cheaper.
My 5 y/o IPS VRR monitor is still doing fine.
Knocks on wood. Please don't die on me, boo.

If it was smaller I woulda grabbed it. Normally 1K new. My Samsung is dying it's getting the vertical lines across entire screen at bootup. It went from just a few minutes to like 15 minutes now.
There are some disadvantages to using the TV as a monitor though mainly text clarity issues. You get very mixed reviews for them as PC monitors.

I’m waiting on a bit of an endgame monitor for me, that I’m not sure I’ll need to “upgrade” as much as just replace when it stop working:
- 5k2k (4k UW)
- 144hz ish
- Full true HDR
- Likely OLED
- 34” ish
- VRR
I’m anticipating moving to that in the next 4-5 years. After that, the visual jump from 4k to 8k on a monitor is just so negligible that I don’t see myself being willing to sacrifice the fps.

First bootup today:
Think it might be time for the Samsung mini LED.

That’s a weird failure pattern. Could be the monitor, but I would swap cables and ports first.

I've used hdmi and dp unfortunately Samsung's are quite known for this after typically 4 years or so and it's almost at year 6 I think. Also swapped gpu's.
Once it warms up after what is now 15 minutes or so it works as normal for the rest of day. Just getting more annoying as it used to just be 5 minutes or so.
From what I've read, it should completely die before long as it progressively gets worse to where it will stay permanently like that.
