5600x

5600X has a much better base frequency.

5600x, but it’s kind of an unfair comparison. At the same price the 5600x is the obvious choice, but the 11400f can be usually found for $180

5600x is better but if you can buy the 11400f then spend 100usd more on the gpu then a better gpu is preferred if you are on a budget.
