Aerocool Tor Pro case with four 140mm fans, H100i, 16GB 3200MHz RAM, ASUS Z390-A motherboard, Corsair RM750x power supply, GTX 1080 FTW. Is it worth adding £30 to the build cost for the Intel Core i9-9900K?

It’s somewhat unusual that the KF model is pricier given it lacks an iGPU. Where are you purchasing your parts? PCPartPicker UK indicates that the KF is typically less expensive.

The KF may overclock more effectively, but it lacks an integrated graphics processor.

The Aria PC is currently more expensive due to a sale price.

The 9900KF may overclock marginally, but it’s not worth the added expense. Furthermore, if your graphics card fails, you won't have a functional system unless replaced with a new one. Conversely, the 9900K allows continued use of the system because it incorporates an integrated graphics processor.

I was considering foregoing an iGPU, and it now seems like a foolish decision.
