Question My new system?

[IBMJunkman]

Current system is approaching 10 years old. Decided to do a new system.

System will not be for gaming or any heavy use. Normal Office apps. I do run SQL and VS, when needed, to maintain a web site hosted on GoDaddy.

My only concern with this new build is with the M.2 drives. I have never used them before. My proposed mobo supports 4 of them. I will probably use 4. My concern is heat. It appears the drives are mounted on top of each other. And I see these types of drives with heat sinks. How hot are these puppies going to get?

Naw. If I went to liquid nitrogen cooling then your examples would hold true. 🙂

Nah, his point is...for your stated uses, the i9-13900K processor is VASTLY overkill.
When I was first researching my new build, I was seriously looking at either the i9-13900K or the i9-12900K. There's just something about buying the "flagship" processor...in the end, folks here convinced me to save a couple hundred $$$ on the processor and get a CPU that's much easier to cool as well.
