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?
Read the review here.

Here you can get:
11700K: $359
10700K: $269
11900K: $519
10850K: $329
And even cheaper if bundled with a motherboard @ microcenter. Now if they can only get some video cards in stock long enough for me to buy one....
There's really no point getting the new cpus when you can get the 10850k at 329$

I bought it 11700KF and sold the 10700K. Intel said 19%+ IPC and there is an improvement. I felt responsiveness boost immediately just using Windows 10 Explorer.

Really explorer? Didnt you read the reviews. There is even a performance regresesion in some games and in others its barely faster than 10700k. Its a sidegrade at best.
