Unlike the Core i7-10700K targeted at overulsers (because the open top), the Core i7-10700F is more oriented towards the middle range; your multiplier is locked, and also its speed of claim is very low since Base speed is 2.9 GHz. In addition, it does not have compiled graphics (which is why it has a composite "F" in its name), which allows very low TDP and, it will be very expensive.
Core Performance i7-10700F
It has been the Korean media that has published a benchmark on the Cinebench R20 for this processor, showing quite impressive performance, or at least more than we would expect as it is is very similar to the AMD Ryzen 7 3700X, and with a processor with 8 corals and 16 processors (but with SMT) which operates at a base speed of 3.6 GHz (Turbo 4.4 GHz), and its price is about 330 euros (it is estimated that 10700F will be priced at about 300 euros).
The processor scored 4781 points in the multi-thread test, where the Ryzen 7 3700X scored 4760 points, while in the same test the Intel processor reached 492 points, compared to the Lyzen 3700X 482 (details from -Guru3D).
Unfortunately, at the source they never publish which motherboard or RAM they have been tested on, so we can't compare the reliable between this processor and the other. In any case, it serves as a reference point that its performance is "more or less" for the Ryzen 7 3700X, at least in this benchmark (you'll definitely need to see what works for all types of benchmarks before you can judge, but it's a good place to start).
Where is this processor located?
We've already noticed that this Intel Core i7-10700F has it 8 cores and 16 threads process at 2.9 GHz, with the currently unknown Turbo frequency. Your TDP, following Intel's 10th generation product line, should be the only one 65 watts, especially there you don't have GPU, but in any case, it could be between Core i5-10600K and Core i7-10700 (without F or K) depending on performance and price.
When comparing it to AMD, it should be positioned between the Ryzen 5 3600X and the Ryzen 7 3700X, though it has seen this benchmark that it may be in its performance above 3700X, though subject to the price below. We'll see, maybe this is good an ace in Intel's strategy to dominate the mid-range of processors Without looking too much.
