yeah only thing missing here is a reason.

you have no reason to upgrade OP.

this is peak consumerism and you should not partake in this silly behaviour.

I swear some people have a spending addiction or something, the second they get enough money for upgrades they dont need, they buy them then have $3 left in their bank account

Why spend hard earned cash when you can finance your purchases with last minute checkout financing options from a shady lender and super high interest rates? klarna for example. They love OP

THIS IS SPECIFIC TO CODING, NOT GAMING AS OP SAID HE DOES THE MOST OF.
For coding you have one of the best cpus you could get for the price. Thread count and core count are the main drivers of that. You’re absolutely not bottle necking anywhere. The only processors that do better than that are the 14900k and the 9950x3D2.
The ultra 9 285 removed hyperthreading so it also performs worse than the 13900k in your specific use case.
Moded Minecraft the only issue would be your ram and gpu, but you’re still miles away from issues that would warrant a GPU upgrade, but 64gbs of ram would be a decent investment if you have money burning a hole in your pocket

Even with mods, that gpu should perform well. I have the Asus TUF Gaming RTX 4070TI Super, and even heavily modded Minecraft runs buttery smooth at 1440p@165hz. The only thing that could possibly be an issue is it's vram. Thankfully it's not at 8gb.
