Which PC should I get

[ianspy1]

Hello I have 2 offers for swaping my laptop into a pc the specs are:

-PC1

i7 5820k

r9 290x

16gb

-PC2

i7 3770 non k

1060 6 gb

16gb 

 

I know that the 1060 is more powerfull but what is up with the processors since I will be upgrading the gpu in about 4 month

4 ram dimms or 2? If you've got the 5820k it helps to take advantage of the quad channel it offers.

 

I'd say this build is preferable because it has 6 cores and a newer CPU, plus the motherboard needed for a 5820k is pretty expensive so it is a better deal if you're comparing these two builds at the same cost.

The r9 290x i think is a bit better than an rx570 due to driver optimization and if you will be upgrading it it won't be a problem so i would definently reccomend going for the first pc because of the newer i7 with a newer architecture and if needed you could overclock it to some extent since it is an overclockable processor.
