Yeah that’s a good idea. I would go with the 8600K but I haven’t looked at all the prices yet. I know that the 8400 isn’t overclockable but I guess I thought I didn’t need all that power. Do you think if I went with a 1070 or 1070ti it would be a better idea? Rather than have it get more expensive

Lol my bad. And that’s true. Should I get a different motherboard for overclocking because of that CPU? I normally use photoshop and Lightroom only

Makes sense. Do you think the 8600 would be okay?

I’m not too familiar with the team red. What would the performance benefits be like between the two CPU’s?

Are you sure? If I’m going to be doing mostly gaming would the 8600 really make much difference?

So I should get an 860 evo with more storage you mean? Maybe 512?
