which cpu should i pick?

[DIY]

I want to play AAA games while quickly alt+tab to several tabs of 1080p porn and would also be nice *IF POSSIBLE* to render some vids , which cpu should i get?

 

i5 9600k , i7 9700k , r5 2600x or r7 2700x?

Porn doesn't take much CPU power. 

 

If you can afford the 9700K, go for that. Otherwise 2700X or 9600K if all you play are esports on a very fast monitor.

I'll mirror what Phentos said. If you can afford the best, go for it since it will last you the longest (9700K in your selection).

 

If not, the R7-2700X is by far the best all-rounder since it's just got the most cores and general oomph (barring single-core). Otherwise, if you play esports games or rely on a high-refresh monitor the 9600K will fare just fine. If that esports game is Overwatch, though, I'd vouch for Ryzen. When I used an R5-1600X back in the day, I could hover ~200 FPS at ultra settings with my GTX 1070. Overwatch plays VERY nicely with Team Red CPUs.

 

TL;DR: If you can afford the big guns, buy them. Otherwise, Ryzen is definitely your best value option given the recent price cuts if they apply to your area.
