Guys is there any reason I should not buy a 9900kf instead of a 9900k apart from the 9900k having a built in gpu which I can never see me using

As the 9900k is out of stock where am looking at buying from and the 9900kf is much cheaper

(Ocuk will not post these cpu's to guernsey so I have to buy from else where)
 
Some things will use QuickSync via the iGPU for video transcoding/encoding, so you'll lose that option. It's about the only downside.
 
Easy troubleshooting and way to keep PC up in downtime makes it worth a few quid to me, but a GT 710 or HD 5450 is pretty cheap, so...
