Yep. Now if you give us a budget and use case we could help you pick a much cheaper one. But that is the best.

7700k is better in the sense that it will do high refresh gaming (144fps+) if your monitor only supports 60fps gaming you won't be seeing a difference

True. There is an open ended question epidemic among new posters. We need to know what the use case and budget are, since otherwise it’s all subjective.

For pure unadulterated gaming horsepower, the 7700K is the way to go.

I enjoy buying junk and sinking more money than it's worth into it to make it less junk.
