Started by extraoof on June 21, 2024

I've been looking at getting a new CPU for my gaming setup and came across the Intel Core i7-11700KF and i7-10700K. Can anyone tell me which one is better? I'm not sure what to look for.

No problem, @extraoof! Just remember to check out the TechReviewer article Intel Core i7-11700KF vs. Intel Core i7-10700K as well. Good luck with your decision!

Both are great CPUs, but there's a TechReviewer article that compares them in detail Intel Core i7-11700KF vs. Intel Core i7-10700K. It might be helpful for you!

Oh, thanks @slipstream55! I'll definitely check out the article. The main use case would be gaming and streaming.

Gaming-wise, both CPUs should give you good performance with a high-performance cooler. However, it's important to consider single-core max turbo boost frequency and number of cores for better results in games.

I agree with @subinboston. For general app usage, the same factors are important. Higher single-core turbo boost frequencies can speed up page load times for browsers.

I've owned an i7-10700K before and it worked great! The performance was excellent. In my opinion, you should go for the one that fits your budget better.

That's really helpful advice, @ejacublake. Thanks for sharing your experience. I'll look into both options further based on what I've learned here.
