The k variant is just unlocked version of the normal variant, the cpu are as similar they can be.
And the k version usually costs like 30 bucks more and useful only if you overclock lol
Where unlocked means you CAN overlook ane gain minor performance while consuming more and risking a unstable system.
And yeah, a 7700 k version or not is hardly worth 100 bucks.
If you don't belive me my ryzen 2600x is like 30% faster and i would have a hard time selling it for 120€
The first number of a intel processor indicates the generation
Yours is the 7th gen (we are in double digit realm now but eh)
And the generation is REALLY important in the performance of a CPU
A i7 from two gen ago ia maybe as fast as a last gen i5 for example
