Went through Germany for the Euro equivalence, PC Part Picker doesn't support Lithuania yet. This should pair nicely with a 1060, and won't really bottleneck anything under a 3070 if you decide to upgrade later.

Hey, thanks for answering, I was wondering is it worth paying more for a 11400f? Would I see a noticeable difference in games?

At 4K it isn't perceivable. At 1080p you might see a slight variance, but the gap is quite small and the 5800X still comes out on top anyway.
