I7 11700f or i9 upgrade 

Do you mean the i9 in the same generation or of the current? What i9 specifically?

https://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Core-i9-11900-vs-Intel-Core-i7-11700F/m1515871vsm1522100

 

Here is a small benchmark on the two compared. It seems like a sort of upgrade that would increase the lifetime of the PC but even now is only better by like 10% percent or so. Maybe something like rendering would show a benefit, but upgrading purely to play games or browse the internet likely wouldn't show a huge bump(of course there would be a small bump in performance but justifying it for the price seems unlikely).

Dont use userbenchmark as its inaccurate. Actual reviews are much better.

The i9 11900k is a 11700k but running 200mhx faster.

 

The 10900k actually has 2 cores more BUT is slower in single core performance

 

If this is for games none of these matter

So you already haven an 11700F? Just keep it. Upgrade the whole platform in a few years.
