Solution
You need to fix the problem. Changing hardware is not the solution.

If this is for gaming, then you wont find any significant gain in terms of performance. The 7700k and 8700k, are both more or less in the same bracket gaming wise. If this is not for gaming, then it can be a wise change. But then, there are other platforms to consider as well.

I'd wait for when both Intel and AMD have fixes in silicon from meltdown and spectre. Any you get now, comes with a time bomb as to when the exploits of those gets really bad.
