I'm not interested in video editing.
Intel core i7 12700KF, Intel Core i7 12700F or something from i5?
Video card GeForce RTX 4060
Motherboard on 1700 socket, memory will be ddr4.

Which processor are you currently using?

What are the types of games you play?

I'm assuming you're on 1080p?

Exact budget?

Core i7 12700KF wins over F but also depends on your use case scenario.
Price difference is also not much.

Thanks, I looked at the tests, they really don't differ much https://cputronic.com/cpu/compare/intel-core-i7-12700kf-vs-intel-core-i7-12700f
that's why it's hard to choose for me)

Main difference is the "Unlocked multiplier" on the "K" model for overclocking which is not there on the non-K models. But you'll need a good "Z-chipset" motherboard, and not all motherboards are made equal, which costs much more than other chipset boards. General overclocking trend to boost cpu performance has pretty much died due to how good new processors are.
"F" is just "without IGP."
Get the non-K model. It will also cost lower which will make you save money for another component.
