I’m looking to upgrade my Plex and game server. I currently have an i5-4690K with 16 GB DDR3 and it’s struggling a lot. My PSU is a 850W gold rated EVGA from 2017 so I don’t think it needs upgraded quite yet since I’ve been way under the wattage for most of its life.

I was looking at something like a 13400 but I’m not sure if it’s the best choice or what to pair it with.

    It looks like it can handle a couple transcodes maybe on Plex, personally I would go Intel for something like this. Their lower power CPUs are very efficient for idle usage.
