Review: Intel Core i7 11700KF processor (RKL)
We're back at eight Cypress Cove cores, this we test a cheaper priced model, the Core i7 11700KF. Suffixes; K means it is unlocked, that F means better value as you can shave off a few bucks, this processor does not have its integrated graphics activated, and as such it has an MSRP of 380 USD. Will it be enough to take on the Ryzen 7 5800X battle?

i suppose evey cpu and board have default values
as in
"you gotta have no brain to pick either one over 10700kf or 3900x"
What exactly is more difficult about an AMD processor? You plug both in and turn them on. I haven't had to do anything more or less with my 3900x than my 4790k or whatever.

5800x is faster and uses less power, its a no brainer.

With undervolt you can get 11700KF at 10700K power usage, so it's not that bad.

Intels own last gen CL is a better buy with 2 extra cores at roughly same MSRP or less.
