As the post below you pointed out the CPU mark score is ~60% higher for the 11th gen 11600
+60% is not 'negligible' ..
Not that I think its worht the extra $100 for most folks though.

The AlderLake announcement is also in a week and a half if you want next gen instead.
Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank ctslive
If you are NOT planning to overclock, I say save the $100.
But the final decision is up to you.

There's no point in going for a 11th gen at all which is why I brought up the 10600K instead for overclocking which goes for $50 cheaper at my MC over the 11600K. Or the 10400 if not overclocking, I guess I wasn't clear.

still, i5-11600k is 30% higher CPU mark than i5-10600k
Yes the 11th gen uses more power. (but thats irrelevant to my point)
The Anandtech link shows pretty decent increase in performance on average across the sample of benchmarks.
There may be some exceptions on specific tests, but it is just not correct to say its 'negligible' in general.
