Need Help With my new build Z170/X99?

[dktamm]

Currently I am building my new setup, but I am unsure if I should go for the X99 chipset or the Z170. I am not an extreme gamer (play a lot of CS:GO that's about it), but I do a lot of adobe stuff like AE/AI/PS/PR/LR/ Autodesk MAYA/ and etc.....

 

Here's a link to what i decided to build: http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/hxFBkL

currently bought the RAM/PSU/Video Card/ Motherboard already (i still have time to exchange like 2 days LOL)

 

edit build if you think it's necessary too LOL    (ALSO if it's the X99 which motherboard would you recommend?)

 

HELP ME please because I can't decide at the moment.

 

THANKS

Since you are getting an i7 go x99. The 6700k just still isn't worth more than the 5820k.

If you're willing to you can change the GPU for an R9 390 and for the motherboard go for the X99. And for the CPU go for the Intel Core i7 5820K it has more cores which is great for video/photo editing etc.

I'd go Z170 as it is a newer platform.

I'd go with an Asus X99-A/U3.1 and the i7 5820K, can recommend them myself. You will benefit from the two extra cores in almost all productive software.
