Hello everyone, I'm trying to pick an Intel CPU but feel torn between options. I don't want a K-series or F-series. My preferred motherboards are B560 or Z490. I know 10th gen chips with 500 series MOBOs block 4th gen PCIe, though that's not too much of a concern. Which one do you suggest? 1. i5-10600 2. i5-11400 3. i7-10700

Tell me your budget and what you're looking for in terms of prices. Let me know if you plan to overclock and whether you need any additional equipment such as Wi-Fi.

Plan your spending wisely, considering each item's cost and value—focus on what offers the best return without extra features or Wi-Fi needs.

I’m planning to grab a 10900f at about $360 or $10,700, roughly $260. For the GPU, I’ll purchase an HD6350 from eBay for $5.
