14700k With An ATX MSI B760-P DDR4?

Hello! I recently got an MSI B760-P DDR4 for a good price (the ATX version with the VRM heatsinks) and I was wondering what the consensus is on i7 processors in them? Some places say don't go higher than i5 others say don't go higher than an i7. I would be using it for video editing, and I'd probably use an arctic freezer iii 360mm AIO because my case I plan to build in has clearance for it, so could I go up to the 14700k or is it best to stay with a 14600k?

CPU upgrade recommendations

Hi everyone! I have a pc i build a while ago with an 11600kf, RTX 3070, and 16gb of ddr4. This pc was originally built to play games years ago, but ive been doing a lot more work in after effects and premiere pro, and I am getting a lot of memory crashes. My graphics card is also starting to not do as well since I upgraded to an ultrawide 2k monitor. My main debate is do I get more ddr4 and possibly jump to am4 soon and get a 5900xt so I have more headroom for a better gpu, or do I do the upgrade to am5 and something like a 7900x or 9900x, my main reason why im considering am4 over am5 is ddr5 is double the price of ddr4 where I am. Does anyone have any advice?
