I think I remember seeing a suggestion to get two versions of movies (a 4k and a 1080p) so you won't have to transcode.

Would this be a better processor for a Plex server running 4k HDR video compared to a Ryzen 3600x or similar Ryzen? I think I need to upgrade from my current phenom ii x4.

9700F is locked - you want the KF for equivalent performance
it consumes less power due to no iGPU but that's it - not unlocked

The F has no on board graphics which is fine since people running this will be running a video card.
