I am looking to upgrade to either these two Intel CPUs as my current CPU is ancient (AMD Ryzen 7 1700). I am looking to edit 4k content more smoothly without a CPU bottleneck. Intel’s iGPU is the main reason why I will probably choose Intel over AMD.

I am leaning towards the 14700k since I’m a bit scared of the 14900k heat, but I would like to have the ability to multi task, so I would like to use Premiere Pro (4k), After Effects and play games without any noticeable lag or delay. Does anyone have much experience with either of these two CPUs with Premiere Pro and multitasking. Any advice would be great.

Also I’m thinking of getting a 360mm AIO to deal with the heat but I’ve seen some people are using 240mm AIOs since they’re just gaming and aren’t doing anything intense. But I like doing 4 different things at once so I don’t know what will cause the CPU to thermal throttle or not.
