4770k or 4670k

Go to solution Solved by DavePC,

Since there's not really much difference in price, and since you may do video editing:

 

I would recommend the 4770k. It has hyper threading, which in my results, allows for a bit faster video rendering.

 

This is because Hyper Threading essentially creates 4 more virtual cores, which essentially splits the work flow more, and allows for faster performance.

 

It's hard to explain, but basically its better for video editing.
