No it actually doesn't... Assuming he overclocks (which if he doesn't I have a lot of proposed changes). Don't even dare to bring up the utter disgrace that was the LTT comparison.

 

The 5820k build is better across the board. I think there are some wierd choices there, but of the two the 5820k build will definitely give the better experience.

Id say 5820k build however I would recomend a monitor like the Benq ew2440l. It has thinner bezels. There are some asus ones too

PC is Intel Core i5 6400, GIgabyte H170 Gaming 3, Corsair Vengeance LPX 2x4GB 2400Mhz ,Sandisk Ultra Plus 128GB, WD Blue 1TB, NZXT S340, ASUS Geforce GTX 960. Fractal Design Tesla R2 650W. http://au.pcpartpicker.com/p/793XNG. Graphics card choices don't always have to be dictated on performance. If you want the game stream and power consumption of the GTX 970 get that. If you want raw performance of the R9 390 get that. In the end we are all gamers, so what if your buddy gets an extra 5 fps?

5930k is more expensive by a few hundred dollars but you're more likely to get 4.0 GHz

 

Edit: and judging on your budget it would be a lot smarter than either a 6700k or 5820k

wrong. and it's an idiotic choice.
