When did you buy that 13600k? Might want to rethink that with the massive Intel stuff going on now…Although I’m not quite sure what you’d be able to do…
did a little bit of research, and you might be safe, seems it largely effects i9s and i7s. If you are comfortable with it, it seems that keeping your motherboard BIOS up to date is the go-to option to keep your CPU running stable and avoiding permanent damage, of course here’s to hoping your CPU isn’t one of the ones that is hardware faulty due to a manufacturer issue that also happened.

If I ever replace my 3080, it would most probably be with another Palit GameRock. I’m waiting to see what the 5XXX range brings, as the 3080 still meets all my current gaming requirements.
I flew Elite: Dangerous quite a lot at some point, with a little MSFS after that. Both in VR, of course.
My G920 is not connected right now, as I don’t really have time for gaming. It is currently mounted to a Next Level Racing F-GT Lite chair that is folded up and stashed in the corner.
Our newly built house is finished in less than 3 months, after which I’ll try and find a permanent spot for the sim setup. The plan is to mount the 49” monitor in front of the racing seat, as the 1000R curve will be ideal for sim racing and flying, when not in VR. I’ll also mount the HOTAS to the chair on the gear selector mounting plates.
