6700k or 5820k

[aPinata]

for streaming which one would be the better choice?

[connorpiper]

5820K

But the 6700K is not going to be much worse. 

[Oshino Shinobu]

5820K. 

[Fred Castellum]

5820k

[ANewFace]

5820K, worth the extra money over 6700K, but I would still consider the 4790K

[manikyath]

if you have the budget, 5820k all the way.

[Morgan MLGman]

5820k

5820K

What's wrong with the 6700K?

Less threads due to 4 cores rather than 6.

Less threads due to 4 cores rather than 6. 

So? Do threads have to do with streaming? I know the 6700k slightly beats the 5820k in higher FPS for gaming but do more threads change the way you stream?

The IPC of the 6700K is higher, but the 5820K will handle streaming better by having 12 threads for both the game and the stream. Each program just gets more processing power to use.

5820k its cheaper as well
