Go to solution Solved by Enderman,

Do you do all those things on a daily basis? Is it your job? Do you make money from it? Can you afford it?

 

If you answered 'YES' to 2 or more of those options, then the 5820k is the one for you.

Otherwise, then get the 4790k

Just wanting to know what people think is better for a gaming, streaming, video editing rig. Probably even 3d rendering. I'm leaning towards the 5820k myself but seeing what the community says.

Depends on the amount of video editing and rendering.

 

The 5820k will obviously be faster, but is waaay more expensive.

I don't really think $50 is way more expensive.
