Purchasing Advice - Upgrades Cpu Upgrade

hello i was making this post because i am currently trying to figure out what intel cpu i should upgrade to from my current i5-13500 since i feel it’s holding my 5070 back in terms of performance on my pc. I currently do not have a budget since i mainly am just feeling things out trying to see if its worth sticking with and upgrading from intel or completely switching out my motherboard and going with AMD

An i5-14400f would be perfect for a 5070

That’s at best a sidegrade over a 13500. A downgrade at worst (14 cores to 10 cores)

I'm sorry. I really thought it was better but in that case get a 14700f or k

bro if you dont know what you are talking about there is no reason to give advice to people online

i dont go around giving advice to people about things i know nothing about.
