are the z170 and z270 compatible with my cpu choise?. i heard de x99 is more verstail and multipurpuose
In my last post someone write this
"At the moment in my opinion x99 is the king of the hill. Capable out of the box, and 50% headroom for overclocking. IMO nothing since has lived up to this despite the advances in architecture."
or it works better with xenon?
I don't really want a xenon because it has more things that, personally, i dont care, because is not in my area (servers and that kind of stuff and my render will be GPU render, not CPU)
Well if you want two 1080tis and an X99 or Ryzen CPU I'd personally recommend a 1000W unit but are you sure you're going to be SLIing. A Corsair RM1000i or EVGA 1000G3 should do nicely. If you get one GPU then 650W is plenty. The choices I just listed would both work for you in the 650W variety.
Z170 and Z270 are compatible with the 7700K yes, albeit Z170 boards need a BIOS update from the manufacturer when shipped to you to support the newer platform as Z170 is native to Skylake while Z270 is native to Kaby Lake. If you order a Z170 board, make sure to ask the seller to update the BIOS to the latest revision before they send it to you. And yes, X99 has more options for PCI lanes and usually the boards come more lavishly equipped, albeit they're expensive to buy.
I'd recommend a Ryzen 1700 to you personally. Get lots of cores for the same price as a 7700K and you can get a decent B350 board to run it. They don't overclock well but judging by your list of parts you were looking at, you're a novice to all of this and overclocking is probably not in your future.
