It's a last-gen Intel CPU but the 13400F is the best budget gaming processor you can get. It's an ideal match for the RTX 4060 Ti, and the rest of the specs are nicely balanced, too.

Don't get too excited though, because it's just an extra 15 MHz on top of the standard 2,535 MHz—you won't notice the difference in any games,
