[SOLVED] are 9400f enough for 1080p 240Hz?

[Yakoooov]

last week i get a B365M mobo, 2666 2x8 RAM, 512gb SSD and 240Hz monitor from online shoping "lucky draw" in my country and im planned to get 9400F + 2060 Super for $614 or i should get 9700F + cooling for additional $247
i only play competitive and some local popular games in my country. Every PC Part in my country are highly expensive and im a collage student in a budget 😥

What resolution are you planning to run at?

If this is just a CS:GO rig, it(9400) might be fast enough...

I'd still try hard for the 9700K CPU... (I show the 9700F at $3 more than the 9700K currently on Amazon...)

1080p mostly.
Some people say at 1080p will be more cpu bound
that's why i considering 9700f

It will be more CPU bound because the graphics card won't be working as hard at 1080p as it would at 1440p or 4k, so the CPU is going to need to work a lot faster to keep frames fed.

I'd go with the 9700k or at least the 9700F.
