9700f i7 9700F?

[JoaKimzen]

Hello

 

I want a new computer, and I discovered something I have never seen before. I like to buy prebuilts from this one specific site, because you get a three year warranty and fast shipping. I found a computer with an i7 9700F CPU. I have heard It doesn't have an iGpu, which is not an issue for me, since it has an RTX 2070 SUPER. But that's all I know. Are there any other differences between the 9700F and the 9700/9700K? I don't think I need a 9700K since I'm not planning on doing any overclocking. Is it worth swapping out for something else?

 

Spec list: 

Intel Core i7 9700F

ZOTAC RTX 2070 SUPER

ASUS ROG Strix B360-F Gaming S-1151 Mobo

Corsair Vengance RGB PRO DDR4 16GB 2933MHz

CM Hyper H411R RGB Black Edition Cooler

Kingston A2000 1TB NVMe M.2 SSD

Corsair TX550M 550w PSU

Corsair Carbide Spec-06 RGB Case

it seems to be only a few % slower than a 9700k so it seems ok

9700F is just a 9700 with no iGPU. 
9700KF is just a 9700K with no iGPU. 

As for the rig, how much does it cost? May be able to build a better value rig yourself. AMD's Zen 2 chips and RX 5700/5700 XT GPUs offer some really tough competition to Intel's 9000 series CPUs and Nvidia's 2060 through 2070 Super GPUs while usually costing less. Or you go for a mix of both, depends on preference and budget. 

If you're not down to build your own PC and that prebuilt isn't horribly overpriced, it'll be a solid rig for sure (especially happy to see a damn good PSU, most prebuilt OEMs skimp there). There won't be any noticeable difference between a 9700/9700F and a stock 9700K/9700KF in actual use anyways, the K CPUs only perform noticeably better when overclocked.

Thanks  

When converting from my currency (Norwegian Krone) to USD It's exactly $1776. This may sound expensive, but everything is expensive around here. It's actually on a discount right now, that's why I'm looking at exactly that one. It usually costs $2100, so I guess It's a fair deal.

That's not bad at all, there's no real compromises on that rig, should just be able to set it up and you'll be good for a while yet. The SSD will have a lower endurance than a higher quality one, but that's legit the only compromise in that rig, and it's a slight one. Cooler is solid for that CPU, mobo looks to be solid (https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2018/07/04/asus-rog-strix-b360f-gaming-review/), I've had the non-pro version of that RAM at 3000Mhz as well, it's excellent. PSU as mentioned before is a very good unit (TXMs are hella quiet and reliable), case seems to basically be Corsair's competitor to the S340/H500 from NZXT, shouldn't be any issues there either. Zotac GPUs are quality AFAIK, and their warranty is supposed to be really good (some say that's only for AMP! cards though).

Sounds good! Thanks for the help
