Hyperthreading is a technology which allow the CPU to use idle units inside a single core to execute a second thread.

Since most of those units are already busy when CPU is at full load, HT doesn't really double the cores.

That is why a 8700K 6C/12T behave very similarly to a 9700K that has 8C/8T. We saw a similar thing with the old I7 4C/8T being similar to the recent I5 6C/6T.

About OP :

a 8600k (6C/6T) will be fine for now.

Anyway future games will probably use more and more threads, especially after the new generation of consoles will come. A CPU with more threads (like Ryzen) might be more helpful in that case.

I don't think it really mater because the GPU (RTX 2070) will probably be the biggest bottleneck here (for future games).

Hyperthreading is like another set of cores, "but not really at the same time"

Couldn’t OP save money in ram getting slightly lower clocked speeds. He ain’t using Ryzen, but intel. So 2666mhz ~ should be enough for intel right ? saves another couple Tenners.
