i7 7800X vs i7 8700K - X299 vs Z370

Just now, fareszr said:

4x4gb = 16gb or 2x8 =16gb which is better

depends on whether you want to be able to eventually get 64gb or 32gb, if you get 4x4 it'll be  faster but if you get 8x2 it will have way higher upgradeability

Want to custom loop?  Ask me more if you are curious

FLUFF MK2 has a bit worse FETs than MK1 they have the same, sorry. I need to check the MSI on hardwareluxx, a moment please :)

Update: I checked OCN and almost got a heart attack. The cheap X299s from MSI use the Niko fets as on AM4, so the inefficient and overheating garbage. Absolutely inappropriate for HEDT.

So, i'd recommend Strix X299-E, X299 Deluxe or X299 FLUFF MK2/MK1

so I'm looking for an upgrade from my current i5 6600 h170 ?mostly for premiere pro..    which is better i7 7800x vs i7 8700k I know i7 8700k outperform the i7 7800x but remember this is x299 longer support and I can get it right now I need to wait at least a month to get coffee lake   so what you think which is better and why   

my budget is 800$

whoa the 8700k beat the 7800x by a good margin in premiere pro and the overclocking isn't that much I'm getting confused ?https://www.pugetsystems.com/labs/articles/Premiere-Pro-CC-2017-1-2-CPU-Performance-Core-i7-8700K-i5-8600K-i3-8350K-1047/

Don't have it yet (waiting for black Friday) but 5+ghz is common, if you can cool it you might be able to squeeze 5.3 or so out of it

That Puget article is boost clock only, I imagine a 4.7ghz 7800x will outperform a 4.7ghz 8700k handily (despetie being .7ghz slower in the test the 7800x still comes really close)

Is this cooler can handle oc Up to 5.0 ghz or higher ? https://pcpartpicker.com/product/jpdqqs/raijintek-cpu-cooler-0r100011

Probably, you may need a delid though

None of the mid tier air coolers from bequiet, noctua etc. are enough to cool a 7800X at 5ghz.  You need performance on par with a 240/280mm aio - or a crazy beefy air cooler.  Both towers you linked are good (BTW. the first one is actually better) but not enough for 5ghz without a delid and high temps.

 

This is the best value aio btw, it's quite capable and relatively cheap

OK, two builds for you.

 

Z370

  1. Will easily hit 5ghz on that aio without a delid
  2. great value mobo
  3. You actually get better RAM

They've been in stock, people just snatch them up really quickly.  Go with either one, just make sure you don't get a bad X299 mobo
