Can I please have help?

I am not sure should I get a I7 4790k or a 4930k for my new PC and if you want to know I do quite a bit of content creation such as video editing and photoshop for my YouTube channel please help!

You can't really compare directly since they vary in platforms. But I wouldn't go for either and I would just go for a 5920k or 5930k

 

x99 is obviously better than the old x79

If content creation is VERY important, go for the 6-core. Otherwise the 4790k should be fine.

you can buy used one's. Or just go for a 4790k

correct me if I am wrong, but wouldn't getting a good CPU like a  4670k and a good GPU with CUDA be a better idea? Is rendering with a good GPU faster?

Is it bad that my dream setup only costs a few thousand not counting the obutto?

Get a 4790k

 

X99 and DRR4 along with a pricey CPU can really drive up the total cost. Not worth it IMO

Want a good game to play?  Check out Shadowrun: http://store.steampowered.com/app/300550/ (runs on literally any hardware)

yes the gpu helps. But the CPU is also vital to that process

getting an i5 while having a Titan for rendering would be bonkers and a total bottleneck for the titan

 

you could say the CPUS is more important in the video rendering thing
