What cpu to buy

[Planet-kuruto]

I'm planning to get a gtx 980ti and 16gigs of ddr4, I'm confused on what cpu should I get,im going to game on games like fallout 4 and star wars battlefront with a minimum of 60fps 1440p max settings and I don't have a budget but I want a reasonable price

[Demonking]

6700K

If you're into Recording, Editing and Gaming like myself, then I would recommend the 5820K, you can get some decent over clocking out of it with a nice CPU cooler, however, keep in mind it doesn't come with a stock one.

I will edit but small things and I will get the hyper212 evo(can't really remember the name) and what about the 5930k.

Can u please tell me which is better money wise and performance

 

If you want to do video editing, streaming, gaming and have a stress test running in the background go with an 5820k or a 5930k if budget is no problem. But this is overkill for what you want to do. I would go with an i7-4790k as it's extremely powerful, can game, edit and stream at the same time, just like the 5820k etc. Also with that cooler you should be able to get an overclock of about 4.5gHz.

 

However if you have a bit more money to spend than £250 then have a look at the 6700k but this will be more expensive as well as the motherboard and RAM  for about a 10-15% performance gain, most of the time that's in single threaded applications anyway. I hope this helped but if you need any more help let me know

I'd go 5820K over a 6700K.

So

1.4790k

2.5930k

3.5820k

I think the 6700k is expensive for nothing, I'll game and stream and I want the build to last for a long time and I'm okay with price of these three and sr if I'm disturbing u

4790k for best price to performance

6700k for best gaming

5820k for best productivity....

 

 

 

my advice:

get a 3440x1440p panel. Ultrawide gaming MAY cause you to NOT get 60FPS stable... but the experience man.... once you try it, going back to 16:9 or dual monitor setups just seem terribly bad to play games at...

 

it gives you the feeling of doing proper "living room" gaming, while sitting in a desktop chair inches from the screen

No problem at all I think you'll be happy with any choice!

[DoubleTech]

Iv'e got the 5820k. It is great for video rendering / editing, gaming and pretty much everything. You can't go wrong with it.

[Nena Trinity]

I vote for Skylake because its the best match for a GTX 980Ti!

How is the 6700k better than the 5820k while the 5820k is better in everything, thermal design power excluded
