I'm looking to get an RTX 4070 Ti with 32 GB 6000MHz DDR5 RAM and either an i513600KF or i7 13700KF to game at 1440p.
Do you guys think it's worth it to pay more for the i7, or will the difference be insignificant compared to the i5?
 
Worth is something only YOU can determine.

You would probably not notice the difference.
Put the price difference towards good cooling to allow the maximum turbo performance.

And... Try to buy the K version of processors. The $25 price premium is good insurance if you should have discrete graphics card issues.
You also get the Quick Sync capability:

You mean non F series chips.
K only enables overclocking, non letter chips also have an Igpu.
