This is such a great CPU, I actually ended up buying a second one for my office computer. Absolute steal at this price, especially if 4K gaming is your end goal.

Can anyone with more knowledge than me, tell me if this is a better CPU compared to a AMD Ryzen 5 7600 3.8 GHz 6-Core Processor for a gaming computer?

Cheaper to get a 12700k MB bundle from newegg if you're buying a z690 board anyway.

The 'F' means this has no integrated graphics core, meaning a GPU is not optional.

I would think that makes this a poor choice for video editing/graphics. That said, you could always buy discrete graphics.

I'm looking for lower power consumption though, disqualifying this due to lack of integrated graphics.

Does undervolting and underclocking achieve low power consumption?

Gotcha. Pretty nice performance stuff for $340ish. Would be looking at $250 plus for this CPU and say b660 board less than a hundred. Really comes down to budget and needs as usual.
