Post From: i5 12600K or i7 12700K for new trading PC?

Right now I run Intel i7-7700, GTX 1060 6GB with 32GB RAM. I have 4 monitors. 2 1440p and 2 1080p. I don't have any problems running SC with all my charts.
Occasionally I will get slowdown or SC will freeze for 2-4 seconds when there's a lot of orders going through, like stop run or end of day trading.
Normally CPU is at 4% and GPU around 14%.

My current PC is Dell and I want to upgrade GPU, but it's nearly impossible to do so with dell's proprietary MOBO and case.

I am considering one of the above mentioned Intel's 12th gen CPUs for new build. Want to see if there are any issues when it comes to SC and the Intel 12th gen CPU.
Not just CPU itself, but also Windows 11 as it is recommended to use with the new CPU.

Can someone using Win 11 confirm if there are any issues or not? Preferably with Intel 12th gen CPU.

Thank you.
