Unfortunately if people in charge don’t want something but know they are going to be outvoted, they often still have enough authority to sabotage the thing they don’t want. Think giant cookie banners on websites rather than small ones, red margarine in America rather than creamy coloured and var being needlessly shit in the UK rather than being used to improve decision making with minimal interference.

There are plenty of YouTube videos that show about 5% difference between a 13700f and a 13900k in game. Does your setup perform better than average in 3d mark? I’m getting it off here the posts on this thread are insane.

The 13700 none k should be able to run similar to the 13700k. Does it manage to maintain a good boost clocks? If not you should be able to get a better cooler and adjust CPU and ram bios settings so that it should be good enough for a 4090. Struggling to believe you feel the need to upgrade with a 13700f.

It’s not just about final place. You appear to have struggled to notice but the points deduction has happened part way through the season. That’s huge for rival relegation candidates. It would have been huge for previous seasons as well.

Too little too late for the competing relegation teams for the previous two seasons.

The push for statistics has come from Televised games in more recent years. You can’t watch a game of football without an hour’s intro of presenters having statistics constantly fed to them.
